Introduction

SD-16(SL)-ZBS is a ZigBee Smoke Detector. It is capable of sending wireless signals to the coordinator
in the ZigBee network upon detection of smoke particles. The Smoke Detector is designed to be
mounted on ceiling or top of stairwells when smoke would concentrate to raise alarm timely and protect
your home from fire hazards.

The Smoke Detector utilizes ZigBee technology for wireless signal transmission. ZigBee is a wireless
communication protocol that is reliable and has low power consumption and high transmission efficiency.
Based on IEEE802.15.4 standard, ZigBee allows a large amount of devices to be included in a network
and coordinated for data exchange and signal transmission

The Smoke Detector serves as an end device in the Zi gBee network. It can be included in the ZigBee
network to transmit signal upon activation, but cannot permit any other ZigBee device to join the network
through the Smoke Detector.

Features

 Smoke Detection

 The Smoke Detector will be activated whenever the smoke concentration exceeds the detection

threshold. After activation, the Red LED will flash quickly and the Smoke Detector will transmit
alarm signal and raise alarm with its built in buzzer for 8 seconds. The alarm sound will repeat in
pattern of 2-second alarm and 1-second pause.

 The Smoke Detector will check smoke concentration every 8 seconds, if the smoke

concentration still exceeds detection threshold after 8 seconds, the buzzer will continue to
sound alarm and the LED will continue to flash.

 If the smoke concentration remains above the detection threshold, the Smoke Detector will

continue to send the alarm signal every 2 minutes.

 If the smoke concentration drops below detection threshold, the Smoke Detector will stop

alarming immediately, a restore signal will be transmitted if no alarm is activated again for 160
seconds.

 Alarm Silence

 When the Smoke Detector is alarming, you can press the Function button once on Smoke

Detector to transmit a cancel signal and enter Alarm Silence mode for 10 minutes

 Under Alarm Silence mode, the Smoke Detector will not sound alarm; the LED Indicator will

flash every second to indicate it is under Alarm Silence mode.

 After 10 minutes, if the smoke concentration still exceeds detection threshold, the Smoke

Detector will raise alarm and send alarm signal again.

 Recalibration

The Smoke Detector will calibrate its sensor every time when power is applied to ensure optimal
smoke sensitivity. After installation, the operation condition of the Smoke Detector may vary after
some time, which may affect its smoke detection function and requires recalibration. There are two
ways to recalibrate the Smoke Detector: auto calibration and manual calibration.

Auto Calibration:

 After power up, the Smoke Detector will perform auto-calibration after 4 hours.
 After the first auto-calibration, the Smoke Detector will perform auto calibration every month.

During the auto-calibration process, the Smoke Detector will not emit any sound.

 If auto-calibration fails the LED will flash rapi dly and the Smoke Detect or will send a calibration

fail signal to the ZigBee Network coordinator. To stop the LED from flashing, remove and reload
the batteries or start a new calibration process manually. If the manual calibration fails again,
Smoke Detector will emit continuous beeps. To stop the beeping sound and the flashing LED,
remove and reload the batteries.

 When Smoke Detector auto calibr ation fails, the smoke alarm function will still work normally

using the threshold value taken from the last successful calibration.

Manual Calibration:

 Manual calibration can be performed any time as desired:

1. Press and hold the function button for 20 seconds.

2. The Smoke Detector will emit 2 short beeps at after 10 seconds and 3 short beeps after 20
seconds. Keep holding the function button and release until you hear the 3 short beeps after 20
seconds.

3. The Smoke Detector will enter calibration process. The LED Indicator will flash every 2 seconds.

4. After the Smoke Detector finishes recalibration, it will emit two quick beeps to indicate. The LED
will turn off.

5. If calibration process fails, Smoke Detector will emit alarm sound. Please remove and reinsert
battery to restart process again.

 Battery and Low Battery Detection

 The battery used varies according to Smoke Detector model number.

Model Number Battery
SD-16-ZBS 2 AA Alkaline 1.5V Batteries
SD-16SL-ZBS 1 CR123A 3V Lithium Battery

 The Smoke Detector feature Low Battery Detection function. When the battery voltage is low,

the Smoke Detector will transmit Low Battery signal to the coordinator in ZigBee network.

 If batteries are not changed after low battery, the Smoke Detector will stop all function when

batteries are exhausted and flash both LEDs every 4 seconds to indicate failure.

 When changing batteries, after removing the old batteri es, press the Function Button twice to

fully discharge before inserting new batteries.

 Supervision

The Smoke Detector will transmit a supervision signal to report its condition regularly according to

user setting. The factory default interval is 30 minutes. The user can also press the Func tion Button
once to transmit a supervision signal manually.

 Test Smoke Detector

Press the Function button once during normal operation to test if Smoke Detector is functionin g
normally.

ZigBee Network Setup

 ZigBee Device Guideline

ZigBee is a wireless communication protocol that is reliable and has low power consumption and
high transmission efficiency. Based on the IEEE802.15.4 standard, ZigBee allows a large amount of
devices to be included in a network and coordinated for data exchange and signal transm ission.

Due to the fundamental structure of ZigBee network, ZigBee device will actively seek and join
network after powering on. Since performing a task in connecting network may consume some
power, it is required to follow the instructions to avoid draining battery of a ZigBee device

- Ensure your ZigBee network router or coordinator is po wered on before inserting battery into the

ZigBee device.

- Ensure the ZigBee network router or coordinator is powered on and within range while a ZigBee

device is in use.

- Do not remove a ZigBee device from the ZigBee network router or coordinator without removing

the battery from a ZigBee device.

 Joining the ZigBee Network

As a ZigBee device, the Smoke Detector needs to join a ZigBee network to transmit signal when
smoke concentration is detected. Please follow the steps bellow to join the Smoke Detector into
ZigBee network.

1. Insert the batteries into the battery compartment to power on the Smoke Detector.

2. The Smoke Detector will emit two short beeps, and then begin warm up for 1 minute, the LED will
flash every 2 seconds.

3. Joining ZigBee network is allowed during the 1-minute warm up period. Press and hold the
function button for 10 seconds and release to search for existing ZigBee network. Please make
sure the permit-to-join feature on the router or coordinator of your ZigBee network is enabled.

4. After joining the ZigBee network, the Smoke Detector will be registered in the network
automatically. Please check the ZigBee coordinator, security system control panel or CIE (Control
and Indicating Equipment) to confirm if joining and registration is successful.

5. After the 1-minute warm up period expires, the Smoke Detector will emit a beep to indicate it now
enters calibration process. The calibration process takes 2~7 minutes; the LED will continue to
flash during calibration. Joining ZigBee network is prohibited during calibration process.

6. When calibration is complete, the Smoke Detector will emit 2 beeps and LED will stop flashing to
indicate it is now under normal operation. If calibration fails, the Smoke Detector will sound
continuous beep.

7. Under normal operation, if the Smoke Detector loses connection to its current ZigBee network,
the LED indicator will flash every 20 minutes to indicate the situation. Please check your ZigBee
network condition and Smoke Detector signal range to correct the situation.

 Removing Device from ZigBee Network (Factory Reset)

To remove the Smoke Detector from current ZigBee network, the Smoke Detector must be put to
Factory Reset to complete device removal. Factory Reset function will clear the Smoke Detector of
its stored setting and information and prompt the Smoke Detector to search for new ZigBee network.

Before removing device, make sure the Smoke Detector is within current ZigBee network
signal range

1. Press and hold the function button for 10 seconds, then release the button to reset Smoke

Detector.
