Installation Instructions 1 ESL Smoke Sensor Model 562 Preliminary Product Summary The ESL Smoke Sensor Model 562 (smoke alarm) is a Learn Mode, wireless, photoelectric smoke sensor with a self-contained alarm siren, a low-battery annunciator, and a status light. The smoke alarm is part of a security/fire alarm system and communicates with the system control panel. Each smoke alarm uses two 3-volt lithium batteries. The batteries are shipped with the unit. Installation Guidelines qThis equipment should be installed in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association’s Standard 72 (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269). qAvoid installing the unit until all construction is com- pleted. The mounting ring may be pre-installed. CAUTION Not compatible with CareTaker Plus and custom versions with software versions 3.0 or earlier. Not compatible with Commander 2000 and custom versions with software versions 4.0 or earlier. Equipment Needed qPhillips screwdriver. qPocket-sized slotted screwdriver. Programming This section describes the basic steps for adding the sensor to panel memory. For more detailed programming information, refer to the specific panel installation instructions. Figure 1.Mounting Bracket. To add the smoke alarm to panel memory: 1.Remove smoke unit from mounting bracket. 2.Put the panel in Program Mode/Learn Sensors. 3.Select a sensor group and sensor number. 4.Remove mounting bracket. 5.Press and hold the test button. 6.The panel will indicate that the sensor has been learned. 7.Exit from program mode. Note Reinstall smoke unit on mounting bracket. Mounting Guidelines Determine the best mounting location for the smoke alarm using the following guidelines: qNFPA 72, Chapter 2, Section 2-2.1.1.1 states as fol- lows: “Smoke alarms shall be installed outside of each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics. In new construction, a smoke alarm also shall be installed in each sleeping room.” qNFPA 72, Appendix A, Section A-2.5.2.1 states as fol- lows: “Smoke Detection - Are More Smoke Alarms Desirable? The required number of smoke alarms might not provide reliable early warning protection for those areas separated by a door from the areas of the house protected by the required smoke alarms. For this reason, it is recommended that the household consider the use of additional smoke alarms for those areas of increased protection. The additional areas include the basement, bedrooms, dining room, furnace room, util-      Document Number: 466-xxxx Rev. A PRELIMINARY April 2000 ITI Part No. 60-848-95, 60-849-95 2 ESL Smoke Sensor Model 562 Mounting Guidelines Preliminary ity roo, and hallways not protected by the required smoke alarms. The installation of smoke alarms in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or garages is not normally recommended, as these locations occa- sionally experence conditions that can result in improper operation.” The above NFPA standards are a minimum requirement for smoke sensor installation. For better protection, we also require the installation of a smoke sensor inside every bedroom in existing construction. qDO NOT mount a smoke alarm to a drop ceiling tile; mount it to a metal runner (see figure 2). Figure 2. Smoke alarm mounted to drop ceiling. qMount all smoke alarms within 100 feet of the panel. qInstall a minimum of two smoke alarms in any house- hold, no matter how small it is. qPut a smoke alarm in the hallway outside of every bed- room area. A minimum of two smoke alarms are required in homes with two bedroom areas (see figure 3). A78-1171-02 Figure 3. Residence with multiple sleeping areas qPut a smoke alarm on every level of a multi-level resi- dence (see figure 4). Figure 4. Multi-level residence qInstall basement alarms on the ceiling at the bottom of the basement stairwell. qInstall smoke alarms on the ceiling as close to the cen- ter of the room as possible. If this is not practical, install it on the ceiling no closer than 4 inches (10 cm) from any wall or corner (see figure 5). qIf ceiling mounting is not practical, install on an inside wall between 4 and 6 inches (10 and 15 cm) from the ceiling (see figure 5). qPut smoke alarms at both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is more than 30 feet (9 meters) long. Large rooms over 900 square feet require more than a single sensor. Figure 5. Smoke alarm mounting locations qAreas with rough ceilings or short, transom-type walls coming down from the ceiling require additional smoke alarms. qInstall second-floor smoke alarms on the ceiling at the top of the first-to-second floor stairwell. Be sure no door or other obstruction blocks the path of smoke to the unit. qIn rooms with sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings, install smoke alarms 3 feet (0.9 meter) measured down on the slant from the highest point of the ceiling (see figure 6). Figure 6. Sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings Limitations All alarms are subject to possible compromise or failure-to- warn for a variety of reasons, for example: qSmoke alarms cannot detect smoke in chimneys, walls, roofs, or smoke blocked by a closed door. qAlarms may not detect smoke on other levels of the building.

Operational Description

Interactive Technologies Inc 04/06/00 10:18 AM FCC ID: B4Z-773A-SMOKE E:\PROJECTS\SLC Projects\SLC_smk\fcc\OP_DESC.DOC Product Description The product is a wireless smoke alarm (detector) used in conjunction with a wireless security alarm system. The smoke alarm unit monitors the environment for the presence of smoke, abnormally high temperature, or sudden increase in temperature. If any of these conditions, which are indicative of a fire, are found, the unit goes into alarm. In alarm the unit may, depending on the model, sound its internal siren and will transmit an alarm message to the security alarm panel. The panel will then sound its sirens, and call the monitoring station for help. While in alarm, the unit will transmit the alarm condition every minute to be sure the signal gets through. Normally the unit only transmits supervisory signals every hour. This product is the combination of a smoke alarm manufactured Sentrol, a division of SLC Technologies, and the transmitter manufactured by ITI. ITI has code imbedded in the microcontroller of the smoke detector to control the transmitter. The microcontroller used is a Motorola 68HC705P6. The RF circuit consists of a 106.5 MHz oscillator followed by an amplifier. The amplifier is turned on and off to modulate the carrier. EXHIBIT I Operational Description

Lab Measurements Discussion / Test Notes 3.1 Test Notes 3.1.1 Transmissions shall cease within 5 seconds of activation [ §15.231(a)(2) ] In the event of a smoke alarm, 8 packets are sent in the transmission. The packet duration is, at most, 30 mS, see Duty Cycle Correction Factor [§15.231(b)(2) and §15.35(c)] . The time between packets random between 100 mS and 450 mS so the length of the longest transmission is: 8*30mS + 7*450mS = 3.39 seconds. So long as the fire alarm condition is present, the device will re-transmit every minute as allowed in §15.231(a)(4). The following plot shows an 8-packet transmission that concludes in less than 5 seconds. Interactive Technologies Inc FCC_REPT.DOC 04/07/00 2:34 PM FCC ID: B4Z-77…
