Abus RM40Li Bedienungs-, Installations- Und Wartungsanleitung Seite 30

Putting into operation
• Alternatively, you can use the RM test spray available from ABUS to test the wireless
smoke detector. If the RM test spray enters the detection chamber, an alarm
should sound, so that you can test whether the wireless smoke detector is
working properly.
• After each teaching process and test alarm, the devices require a 10 minute
calibration period in order to exchange enough data packets. Please do not
initiate a test alarm during this time.
Networking the wireless smoke detectors
• Please note: do not network another model of wireless smoke detector
with this one. This may lead to improper functioning and it cannot be
guaranteed that the device will operate problem-free.
• If the test mode on one detector in a network is activated, all other
networked detectors will produce a signal too.
• If one of the detectors in the network detects an alarm, all other
detectors in the network will raise the alarm.
• If the battery in one detector is low, this will be indicated directly by the
affected detector. In addition, this will also be indicated by all networked
detectors every 4 hours by 2 beeps and a flashing LED.
Networking the detectors
You will require at least two RM40 Li wireless smoke detectors to be able to create
a wireless detector network. A maximum of 32 detectors can be networked.
Due to the network connection, the distance between individual detectors must
be a maximum of 30 m. The wireless range can be negatively influenced by the
structural surroundings. The RM40Li detectors can be cascaded, meaning that the
detectors are not connected in one direction only, so the alarm signal can be
transmitted from the first to the last in a chain.
