OPERATION

The FireFighter™ sensor is designed to listen to any smoke, carbon or combo detector. Once confirmed as an
alarm, it will transmit a signal to the alarm control panel which if connected to a central monitoring station, will
dispatch the fire department.

WARNING: This audio detector is intended only for use with smoke, carbon and combo detectors but it does
not detect the presence of smoke, heat, or fire directly.

ENROLLING

To enroll the sensor remove the top cover by depressing the friction tab in order to reveal the
battery. Pull and discard the battery plastic tab to turn on the device.

Download and install ClearSky App on your android or IOS phone.
Open your ClearSky APP and follow the directions on the app to learn in the sensor.
App will require you to press the learn button when linking (Image 1).
There are 2 modes of detection on the FireFighter™. Mode 1 is smoke only and Mode 2 is smoke and
carbon monoxide alert detection. To switch between modes, remove the battery, press and hold
the tamper switch and learn button until a red LED turns on. Let go of tamper and learn button. 1
red blink indicates smoke alert detection. 2 red blinks indicates smoke + CO alert detection.

MOUNTING

Included with this device is a mounting bracket, hardware and double sided tape. To ensure proper
operation ensure the side of the device with the small holes is directly facing the sounder holes on the smoke
detector. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall or ceiling using the two mounting screws and double
sided tape provided, then secure the audio detector to the mounting bracket using the small screw
provided. The FireFighter™ must be mounting within 6 inches of the detector for optimal operation.

WARNING: Non-interconnected smoke detectors require an audio detector by each smoke detector sounder.

This equipment should be installed in accordance with Chapter 2 of the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA
72, (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269). Printed information describing
proper installation, operation, testing, maintenance, evacuation planning, and repair service is to be provided
with this equipment. Warning: Owner’s instruction notice: ’Not to be removed by anyone except occupant’.

TESTING

To test the RF transmission from the mounted position you can either generate a tamper by removing the cover
or press the learn button located next to the tamper switch. Press and release ONCE to send a Smoke signal or
press and HOLD for 2 seconds to send a Carbon signal. To test the audio detection, press and hold the smoke
detector test button. Press and hold the smoke detector button for at least 30 seconds to ensure that
FireFighter™ has had sufficient time to identify the smoke alarm pattern and lock into alarm. Ensure the
FireFighter™ cover is on and that you wear hearing protection.

NOTE: This system must be checked by a qualified technician at least once every three (3) years. Please test the unit

once per week to ensure proper functionality.

LED

The Firefighter™ is equipped with a multi-color LED. When a valid audio signal is heard the LED will
turn red and flash in sequence to the smoke detector sounder. When the Firefighter™ has determined
the audio signal heard is a valid alarm, the LED will turn solid green to indicate it has transmitted to
the panel. The LED will blink yellow following the detected alarm tone. On power up, the LED will
blink red to show which mode it is in, once for smoke only, twice for smoke + CO detection mode.

REPLACING THE BATTERY

When the battery is low a signal will be sent to the control panel. To replace the battery:

1) Remove the FireFighter™ from installation location by sliding the unit off the wall/ceiling mount in

the direction indicated on the FireFighter™ Cover.

2) Unscrew the two screws on the back of the FireFighter™. Remove the top cover by depressing the

friction tab in order to reveal the battery. This will send a tamper signal to the control panel.)

3) Replace with a Panasonic CR123A battery ensuring the + side of the battery faces as indicated on
the device.

4) Re-attach the cover, you should hear a click when the cover engages properly. Then replace the
screws removed in step 2.

5) Replace the on the mounting plate from step 1.

WARNING: While the audio detector monitors its own battery, it does not monitor the battery in the
smoke detectors. Batteries should be changed as per the original smoke detector manufacturer’s
instructions. Always test the audio detector and smoke alarms after battery installation to confirm
proper operation
