GENERAL INFORMATION
The Ademco No. 5807 Photoelectric Smoke Detector/Transmitter is intended for
use with wireless alarm systems that support QED 5800 series devices, and
contains a built-in transmitter which can send alarm, supervisory and battery
condition messages to the system's QED receiver/control unit. Refer to the
wireless system's instructions for the maximum number of transmitters that can
be supported.
Alarms: The smoke detector is powered by two 9-volt batteries and will sound
its built-in horn when smoke reaches the detector (and the LED indicator will light
steadily). A message will also be sent to the wireless QED control and the smoke
detector's ID number will be displayed at the console. The alarm message will be
transmitted every 4 seconds, until the smoke condition has cleared and the
detector has reset. After the horn has stopped, a Restore message will be
transmitted to the QED control and it will then be possible to clear the ID number
from the display. During normal or low battery conditions, the LED indicator will
flash about once every 7 seconds.
Low Battery: The detector indicates a low battery condition by emitting a "beep"
about once every 15 seconds. A low battery message will be sent to the QED
control unit upon any transmission following the first battery beep (with the
detector's ID number displayed at the console). The battery should be replaced
within 7 days following the low battery signals.
Programming: Note that the QED control system must “enroll” the smoke
detector’s ID during installation of the system. The QED control should be
programmed to “enroll” the 5807 as an “RF” type unit (i.e., supervised RF). See
the
PROGRAMMING section in this instruction book and the QED control unit’s
Installation Instructions for further details.
