1.3 Battery Connection and Initial Test
CAUTION: The MCT-423 comes with cover latches that will
prevent the cover from closing if there is no battery
inside.
The smoke detector is supplied with a 9V alkaline battery seated
within its holder but insulated from the battery terminals.
A. Pull the battery out and peel off the insulating material to
prevent the cover from closing if there is no battery
inside.

A. Pull the battery out and peel off the insulating material to
expose the terminals.
B. Match the battery terminals with the flexible contacts on the
detector PCB. Be sure to get the polarity right. If you
reverse the [+] and [–], the battery will discharge
completely within a very short time through the built in
protection diode!

C. When the terminals are properly matched, push the battery
firmly in until it is seated tightly within the holder.
Note: When the battery first makes contact with the detector,
the alarm horn may sound for one second. This indicates that

A tamper protection switch is
mounted on the transmitter
board. The tamper actuator,
extending through a hole in the
base (see Figure 4), is pressed
against the bracket when the
unit is attached to the bracket.
Removal of the unit from the
bracket will cause the switch
contacts to open, creating a
tamper event, which will be
reported by the transmitter to
the control panel.
