Before Installing
Please thoroughly read the system wiring and installation
manuals and the System Smoke Detectors Applications
Guide, which provide detailed information on detector
spacing, placement, zoning, and special applications.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user
of this equipment.
IMPORTANT: The detector used with these bases must be
tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 require-
ments. The detectors should be cleaned at least once a year.

annunciator output.
Mounting
The detector base mounts directly to 31⁄2- and 4-inch octa-
gon and 4-inch square boxes, with or without a plaster ring.
To mount, remove the decorative ring by rotating it in either
direction to unhook the snaps. Then, separate the ring from
the base. Install the base on the box, using the screws sup-
plied with the junction box and the appropriate slots in the
base. Replace the decorative ring on the base and rotate it in
either direction until the ring snaps in place (see Figure 1).

Installation Guidelines
All wiring must be installed in compliance with all appli-
cable local codes and any special requirements of the local
authority having jurisdiction, using the proper wire sizes.
The conductors used to connect smoke detectors to control
panels and accessory devices should be color-coded to
reduce the likelihood of wiring errors. Improper connec-
tions can prevent a system from responding properly in the
event of a fire.
For signal wiring (the wiring between interconnected
detectors), it is recommended that the wire be no smaller
than 18 gauge (0.9 square mm). However, wire sizes up to
14 gauge (2.0 square mm) can be used with the base. The
use of twisted pair wiring or shielded cable for the power
(+ and –) loop is recommended to minimize the effects of
electrical interference.
If shielded cable is used, the shield connection to and from
the detector must be continuous by using wire nuts, crimp-
ing, or soldering, as appropriate, for a reliable connection.
Alarm system control panels have specifications for allow-
able loop resistance. Consult the control panel specifica-
tions for the total loop resistance allowed before wiring the
detector loops.
Wiring Instructions
The base uses a latching relay that can change states if it is
subjected to mechanical shocks or jarring. As a result, even
though relay contacts are in the open state when the base
is shipped from the factory, the contacts may have closed
during shipment.
Connecting an auxiliary control circuit to closed relay con-
tacts can cause an unexpected, and possibly dangerous,
activation of that circuit. Therefore, do NOT connect an
auxiliary control circuit to the relay contacts (terminals 1,
2, and 3) before ensuring that the relay contacts are in their
open state. Ensure that the contacts are open by applying
power to the bases WITHOUT the sensor heads installed.
Make wiring connections by stripping about 3⁄8″(10 mm) of
insulation from the end of the wire. Then, slide the wire
under the clamping plate and tighten the clamping plate
screw.

C0148-00
Wire the normally open (NO) line to terminal 2 (see Figure
2). Insert the normally closed (NC) line of the relay to ter-
minal 1 and the relay common line to terminal 3. Wire the
communication lines in (+) and out (+)to terminal 4.
Insert the communication line in (–) and out (–) to terminal
5. Terminal 6 is for shielded cable only (see Figure 2). If
shielded cable is used, the shield connection to and from the
detector must be continuous by using wire nuts, crimping,
or soldering to ensure a reliable connection. If shielded
cable is not used, leave terminal 6 in the screwed-down
position.
Check the zone wiring of all bases in the system before
installing detector heads. This includes checking the wiring
for continuity, correct polarity, ground fault testing, and
performing a dielectric test.

Figure 2. Wiring diagram:
A label is affixed to the base for recording the zone,
address, and type of detector being installed at the base
location. This information is useful for setting the detector
head address and for verification of the sensor type
required for that location.
Once all detector bases have been wired and mounted, and
the loop wiring has been checked, the detector heads may
be installed in the bases.
Tamper-resist Feature
NOTE: Do not use the tamper-resist feature if the removal
tool is to be used.
This detector base includes a tamper-resist feature that pre-
vents its removal from the base without the use of a tool.
To activate this feature, break the tab from the detector
base as shown in Figure 3A (see page 4). Then, install the
detector.
To remove the detector from the base once the tamper-
resist feature has been activated, insert a small-bladed
screwdriver into the slot in the side of the base and push
the plastic lever away from the detector head (see Figure
3B, page 4). This allows the detector to be rotated counter-
clockwise for removal.
NOTE: Head removal after the tamper-resist feature has
been activated first requires removal of the decora-
tive ring.
The tamper-resist feature can be defeated by breaking and
removing the plastic lever from the base. However, this
prevents the feature from being used again.
