Control Panel Compatibility
FSB-210 smoke detectors are addressable system detectors that are only for use with DSC fire and security control panels equipped with the compatible interface. The
FSB-210 smoke detectors cannot be used with a standard
2-wire smoke detector interface. Any standard 2-wire
smoke detector, including the DSC FSA Series, will not
operate on an addressable circuit. The FSB-210 series and
the FSA Series are not compatible, interchangeable or
substitutable.
The addressable interfaces have a proprietary power and
signaling system. Voltage ratings are not indicative of
compatibility. The current rating is provided for circuit
loading calculations only. Please refer to the control panel
information for details on the installation of addressable
circuits.
FSB-210 detectors are compatible with the following control units:
• PC5010/PC5015/PC5020/PC5020CF v2.x with PC5100
interface module. Maximum 32 detectors can be
installed.
• PC4010/PC4010CF/PC4020/PC4020CF v3.x. Maximum
112 detectors can be installed.
Operation
Approximately every 7 to 8 seconds the unit tests for a
smoke or heat alarm condition. During this sequence the
unit also performs self diagnostics, and checks for faults.
During normal operation the LED will flash every 50 seconds.
Smoke Alarm
The smoke detector has a nominal fixed alarm sensitivity
(refer to the Specifications section on the back page) and
it will go into alarm when the signal level exceeds the
panel. During an alarm the LED will flash every second.
Smoke - Drift Compensation
The detector automatically compensates for long-term
environmentally induced changes to maintain a constant
smoke sensitivity. When the drift compensation has
reached its high or low limit of adjustment, the detector
will go into the trouble state.
Heat Alarm
The heat detector will go into alarm when the heat signal
level exceeds the heat alarm threshold (135ºF/57ºC); and
send the alarm signal to the control panel. During an
alarm the LED will flash every second.

Installer Instructions
1. Smoke Detector Placement
On smooth ceilings, detectors
may be spaced 9.1m (30ft)
apart as a guide. Other spacing may be required depending on ceiling height, air
movement, the presence of
joists, uninsulated ceilings,
etc. Consult National Fire
Alarm Code NFPA 72, Chapter 11 or other appropriate
national standards for installation recommendations.
•Do NOT locate smoke detectors at the top of peaked or
gabled ceilings; the dead air space in these locations may
prevent the unit from detecting smoke. Avoid areas with
turbulent air flow, (near doors, fans or windows). Rapid
air movement around the detector may prevent smoke
from entering the unit.
•Do NOT locate detectors in areas of high humidity.
•Do NOT locate detectors in areas where the temperature
rises above 38ºC (100ºF) or falls below 5ºC (41ºF).
Install Smoke detectors in accordance with NFPA 72,
Chapter 11:“Smoke detectors shall be installed outside
of each 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
detector also shall be installed in each sleeping room.”

NOTE: Power supply must be
supplied from a UL Listed
alarm control unit. Install wiring in accordance with the
appropriate national and local
electrical codes.

3. Wiring
Refer to the connection diagram in this section. Before
connecting the unit, prepare
the wires from the electrical
box for connection; the wires
should not be frayed or bent.
CAUTION: If power connections are reversed, the unit
will not operate. The unit is
protected against damage
from incorrect wiring.
When wiring is completed,
inspect the wiring and cor-
rect any errors before applying power to the unit. When the wiring has been
thoroughly reviewed, neatly insert the wires into the electrical box and secure the unit to the mounting plate.
NOTE: This equipment should be installed in accordance
with the National Fire Protection Association Standard 72
(National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, MA 02269).
Dust Cover
The dust cover is intended to protect the smoke detector
from dust and dirt entry while the unit is not in service.
CAUTION: The dust cover protects the unit ONLY when it
is not in service. Remove the dust cover before use.
Device Enrollment
The serial number located on the back of the device must
be enrolled into the alarm control panel via Installer’s Programming ([
lined for Power panels in the PC5100 Installation Manual
and for the PC4010/4020 v3.x in the control panel Installation Manual.
WARNING: Connect only DSC addressable series
devices to the addressable loop connections. Connection of any other type of device will impair operation.
Devices other than addressable series devices which
require power to operate must be powered separately.

Do NOT use looped wire under terminals for system
supervision. Break the wire run to provide supervision
of connections.
4. Mounting
Detector Installation
Position the detector on to the base plate using the
detector and base plate alignment marks. Press the
detector gently in place while rotating the detector clockwise until the detector snaps into place. Remove the side
tab from the locking tab to lock in place (optional).
Removal: If the side tab
is removed to lock the
detector, depress tab
with a small flat blade
screwdriver and rotate
the detector counter-

5. Test Unit
1. Program the Panel for Smoke Test. Refer to the Alarm
Control Panel Installation Manual for details.
NOTE: If the detector is in one of the following states
when test is initiated, it will not enter an alarm state:
• Compensation trouble.
• Failure of heat or smoke detector.
• Other internal faults that could prevent a smoke or
heat alarm.
2. Use the FSD-100 meter to read the trouble status after
testing. Refer to the FSD-100 User Guide for details.
NOTE: Place the meter close to the LED until it begins to
flash every 2 seconds. Then hold the meter on the opposite side of the LED and read the message. The detector
will send out a test message 7 times in a 2-second interval until the LED stops flashing.
6. Compensation Reset
Cleaning, replacement of the smoke sensor, or other
changes may change the background signal/noise of the
detector; this requires the drift compensation be reset.
Compensation trouble is one of the faults indicated when
the LED indicator is OFF.
• Remove power from the unit, then press and hold the
test button for 30 seconds to power down unit.
• Power up unit while pressing the test button.The LED
will flash; when 5 seconds has elapsed. Release the
test button within 1 second after the fifth LED flash.
• The LED will flash every 8 seconds for 1 minute.
When the detector stops flashing test the detector to
verify normal operation.
