6 Initial commissioning
and setting up
Always consider the following when put-
ting into operation and setting up smoke
alarm devices:
f Commission devices in a radio
group one after another in their final
installation location.
f To prevent overlaying radio signals,
keep a minimum distance of 2 to
3 m between the devices.
f Establish a radio group of at least 2
and a maximum of 15 smoke alarm
devices connected together.
f Connect a maximum of 15 radio
groups together.
f After putting the device into operati-
on, the splint pin is used as a tool
for operating the radio button, and
must be kept readily available in the
vicinity of the device.

Shared radio group and subgroup
For special applications, it may be useful
to set up a shared radio group e.g., in
the corridor of an apartment building. A
central radio group (corridor) which is
associated with one or more other radio
groups (flat) thereby takes over the func-
tion of the shared radio group. The other
radio groups form subgroups.
Alarm signals are passed only to the
shared radio group from an alarming sub-
group and trigger it. Alarm forwarding
from the shared radio group to the sub-
group does not occur.
f Set up all the individual groups one
after another before connecting the
individual radio groups.
