2GIG EDGE Quick Start Guide
Fire and Emergency Protection
Smoke and Carbon Monoxide (CO) detectors may be installed to protect the occupants of the dwelling from harmful, and possibly deadly effects of smoke, heat,
and re-related dangers. The system’s re and emergency protection features are always protecting the premises. See Warnings, page 36.
NOTE: A professional installer must ensure that all Smoke/Heat alarms and CO detectors are installed in compliance with all national, regional,
and local laws, statutes, and guidelines.
In the Event of a Fire Alarm
In the event an installed re protection zone detects an issue, the following will occur:
1. The alarm siren immediately sounds and continues to sound until a User Code is entered or for the amount of time specied by the Fire Bell Cutoff Time
setting. The factory default setting is four (4) minutes. Consult the installer to determine the cutoff time that has been congured for the system.
2. After the report is received by the Central Station, an operator will respond per the terms dened in the individual Service Agreement with the 2GIG alarm
dealer. For more in-depth information about specic alarm protocols, contact the alarm dealer.
If a re alarm is activated, the system emits a warning siren and immediately reports a re to the Central Station. To protect all occupants, do the following:
1. If ames or smoke are present, yell “Fire!” to alert all occupants of a re.
2. Immediately evacuate all occupants from the premises and remain at a safe distance away from the premises.
DANGER: To protect all users from serious injury and/or death, do NOT re-enter the premises until it has been deemed safe by
emergency ofcials.
3. Dial 9-1-1 (or the region’s emergency services number) to report the situation to authorities. Always wait to call from a safe location.
NOTE: It is important to establish and practice an Escape Plan with all members of the household in the event of a re. For more in-
depth information, see the EDGE User Guide.
