INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The 5800CO is a 3V battery powered wireless Carbon Monoxide
(CO) detector intended for use with wireless alarm systems that
support 5800 series devices. Refer to control/communicator
installation instructions for compatibility.
The detector consists of an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor
assembly coupled to a wireless transmitter. The transmitter can
send alarm, trouble, tamper, and battery condition messages to the
system’s receiver. Refer to the wireless system’s instructions for the
maximum number of transmitters that can be supported.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this
equipment.
IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained
regularly following NFPA 72 requirements.
WARNING: This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor
locations of dwelling units, including homes, residential buildings,
hotels, schools, dormitories, and day care centers. It is not intended
for use in industrial factories or commercial parking garages.
Detector Description
• Listed to UL standard 2075 (pending)
• Supervised
• Local sounder
• Dual LED’s
• Test/Hush button
• Surface mount to wall or ceiling
• Optional drywall anchors included
The 5800CO contains a piezoelectric horn which generates the
ANSI S3.41 temporal 4 pattern in an alarm condition (see note
below Table 1 for temporal 4 pattern). In alarm, a message is also
sent to the wireless control panel and the detector’s zone number is
displayed at the console. The alarm message is transmitted every 4
seconds until the carbon monoxide condition has cleared and the
detector has reset. During an alarm condition, pressing the
detector’s test button will silence the piezoelectric horn for 5
minutes. Once the detector has reset, a RESTORE message is
transmitted to the control panel and the transmitter’s zone number
can be cleared from the panel. The mounting base installation is
simplified by the incorporation of features compatible with drywall
fasteners or other methods that provide a method for securing the
detector in place.
During initial power-up, the red and green LEDs will blink together
once every 10 seconds up to four times. It takess about 30 seconds
for the detector’s CO sensor to stabilize (see Table 1).
After power-up has completed and the detector is functioning
normally within its listed sensitivity range, the green LED blinks
once every 10 seconds. The LED indication must not be used in
place of the tests specified under TESTING THE DETECTOR. In
a trouble condition, the red LED will blink once every 10 seconds
(refer to Table 1). If the detector senses a low battery condition, the
red LED blinks once every 45 seconds.
Two LEDs and a sounder on the detector provide local visual and
audible indication of the detector’s status as listed in Table 1.

† Temp 4 pattern is repeated pattern of four short beeps followed by
a five second pause. When the detector has been in alarm for 30
minutes, the alarm signal will be given once every minute. If
ambient conditions return to normal, the detector will self-restore
out of alarm and into Normal (standby) mode.
†† Red and green LEDs blink a total of four times, once every 10
seconds.
Hush feature: If required, the audible alarm can be silenced for 5
minutes by pushing the button marked “Test/Hush”. The red alarm
light will continue to flash in temp-4 pattern. If carbon monoxide is
still present after the 5 minute hush period, the audible alarm will
sound. The hush feature will not operate at levels above 350 ppm
(parts per million) carbon monoxide.
Trouble feature: When the sensor supervision is in a trouble
condition, the detector will send a trouble signal to the panel.
Trouble conditions include an open circuit, sensor removal
(tamper), and sensor end of life.
End of Life Timer feature: When the detector has reached the
end of its life, the trouble contact will open. This indicates that the
CO sensor inside the detector has passed the end of its life and
must be replaced. This detector’s lifespan is approximately six
years from the date of manufacture. Refer to Detector Replacement
section
Low Battery Detection:
volt CR123A or DL123A Lithium battery (included). The detector
checks for a low battery at least every 65 minutes. If a low battery
is detected, the transmitter sends a low battery message to the
control panel, which beeps and displays the detector’s zone number.
In addition, the red LED of the detector will blink every 45 seconds
and the test button will be disabled. This condition will exist for a
minimum of 7 days, and then the detector’s horn will “chirp” about
every 45 seconds. Pressing the test button during this time will
silence the chirps for 12 hours. The battery should be replaced
BEFORE the chirps begin. Be sure to replace the battery with a
fresh one.

BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT
To replace the battery:
1. Remove the detector from its mounting base by twisting the
detector counterclockwise. Remove the battery, and dispose
properly.
2. To ensure proper power-down sequence, wait a minimum of 20
seconds before installing new battery.
3. Install a new 3-volt CR123A Lithium battery in the battery
compartment. Follow the polarity diagram inside the
compartment.
4. Reinstall the detector onto the mounting base by turning the
detector clockwise.
5. Test the detector as described in the TESTING SIGNAL
STRENGTH section of this manual. The green LED should
blink about once every 10 seconds to indicate normal operation.
If the battery is not installed correctly, the detector will not
operate and the battery may be damaged. If the detector does
not appear to be sending a signal during any of the tests, check
for correct battery installation and for a fully charged battery.

PROGRAMMING
The detector must be enrolled in the control panel before it can
operate in the system. The detector’s protection zone must be
enrolled as Loop 1 and “Input Type” 3 (supervised RF).
A tamper condition is transmitted as Loop 4, but does not require
programming.
1. Enter the control’s Zone Programming mode.
2. Enter the zone number to be programmed.
3. Enter the applicable zone type when prompted. For
Honeywell residential controls, program loop 1 as carbon
monoxide zone type 14).
4. When prompted, enter Input Type 03 (3 on some controls)
– Supervised RF Transmitter.
5. When prompted for the serial number, transmit from the
detector by activating the tamper switch. To do this, hold
the base of the detector in one hand, and rotate the
detector counter-clockwise on the base until it snaps open.
Then return to clockwise position until the detector snaps
into place.
6. When the serial number is displayed, transmit from the
detector a second time by activating the tamper switch
again as described in Step 5. The current loop number (4)
will begin to flash.
7. Manually change the loop number to the desired loop
number for the zone (according to the application).
WARNING: The carbon monoxide protection zone enrolled
must always be Loop 1. Otherwise, annunciations will not be
reported by the control.
8. Exit Programming mode when programming is complete,
and test the detector. Refer to the Testing Section.
See the control unit’s installation instructions for further
details.
MOUNTING THE DETECTOR
First, determine the best location for the detector, one that provides
proper gas detection (see Figure 4 for suggested detection locations)
and a strong wireless transmission path.
Proper Gas Detection Location
In a wall location, the detector should be at least as high as a light
switch, and at least six inches from the ceiling. In a ceiling location,
the detector should be at least 12 inches from any wall.
Where to install, ideally:
• Within 10 feet of all sleeping areas
• Inside the bedroom if it contains a fuel burning appliance
• On every floor of the building
• Ideally, install in any room that contains a fuel burning
appliance
• If the appliance in the room is not normally used, such as the
boiler room, the detector should be placed just outside the room
so the alarm can be heard more easily
Where NOT to install, ideally:
• Detectors operate best if not installed within 10 feet of any
cooking appliance
• Directly above a sink, cooker, stove or oven
• Next to a door or window that would be affected by drafts i.e.
extractor fan or air vent
• Outside
• Do not install in any environment that does not comply with the
detector’s environmental specifications
• In or below a cupboard
• Where air flow would be obstructed by curtains or furniture
• Where dirt or dust could collect and block the sensor
• Where it could be knocked, damaged, or inadvertently removed
Good Transmission Path
A GOOD TRANSMISSION PATH MUST BE ESTABLISHED
FROM THE PROPOSED MOUNTING LOCATION BEFORE
PERMANENTLY INSTALLING THE DETECTOR. To check,
perform the test described in the TESTING SIGNAL STRENGTH
section. Prior to mounting the detector to the mounting base, you
must “enroll” the detector’s serial number into the system (see the
PROGRAMMING section).
Mounting Procedure
To mount the detector, perform the following steps:
1. Once a suitable location has been determined, install the
mounting base on the ceiling or on the wall (if local ordinances
permit). Use the two screws and anchors provided.
2. Turn the detector in a clockwise direction in the mounting base
until it clicks into place.
3. Test the detector immediately after completing the installation
(as described in the TESTING THE DETECTOR section of
this manual) and refer to the control system’s instructions for
additional information concerning the use of wireless devices.
