1 Product Introduction
The SMCSM10-Z meets NFPA 72 field sensitivity testing requirements without the need for external meters. Built-in drift compensation allows the SMCSM10-Z to adjust sensitivity automatically as it becomes dirty over time. The drift-compensation feature dramatically increases the time between cleanings, as well as reducing the chance of a nuisance alarm.

4 Finding a Suitable Location
Review the information in this section to ensure you get the most out of the SMCSM10-Z. The information in this User Guide is in accordance
with NFPA 72 and/or CAN/ULC-S529, depending on country of installation.
Pre-installation Considerations
Install the SMCSM10-Z in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) Standard 72, Chapters 2 and 8. Depending on the application, you may need to reference other chapters of NFPA 72 or NFPA 101.
Choosing an Installation Location
When choosing an installation location, consider:
Use of structure and type of construction Contents you want to protect and their
burning characteristics
Human occupancy Total area to be monitored Ceiling height and surface condition Air movement and vent locations Obstructions
Deflections
Recommended Locations
After considering these factors, choose a location:
Where the temperature range is between 32°
and 104° F (0° and 40° C).
Where the humidity is between 0 and 95%
non-condensing.
Away from ventilation sources that can
prevent smoke from reaching the smoke alarm.
At least 5 feet (1.5 m) from bathrooms.
When placing the SMCSM10-Z on a ceiling, mount it in the center of the room or hallway at least 4 inches (10cm) away from any walls or partitions.
SMCSM10-Z Smok e A l arm Guide
Congratulations on purchasing your SMCSM10-Z Smoke Alarm with Heat Detection Sensor.
The SMCSM10-Z Smoke Alarm provides triple protection against fire. It combines a photoelectric smoke detector with an integrated heat detector that senses both fixed temperature and temperature rate-of-rise within a room. It contains an integrated siren to signal alarms.

When mounting the SMCSM10-Z on a wall, place it so the top is 4 to 12 inches (10 to 31cm) below the ceiling.
In rooms with sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings, place the SMCSM10-Z 3 feet (.9 m) down or away from the highest point of the ceiling.
If mounting to suspended ceiling tile, secure the tile with the appropriate fastener to prevent tile removal.
Smoke alarms are not to be used with alarm guards unless the combination has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.
Note: A smoke alarm does not provide warnings
for fires resulting from explosions, smoking in bed or other furniture; ignition of flammable liquids, vapors and gasses; and children playing with matches or lighters.
Locations to Avoid
Areas where normal ambient temperature is
less than 32°F (0°C), or exceeds 104°F (40°C).
Dirty, dusty, insect infested areas. In or near areas with combustion particles
(kitchens, garages, furnaces, hot-water heaters, gas space heaters).
On the ceiling in rooms next to kitchens,
where there is no transom between the kitchen and such rooms.
Damp or humid areas, or near bathrooms
with showers.
Near fresh-air inlets or returns or very drafty
areas.
Near heating/air conditioning vents, fans,
and fresh air intakes, which can drive smoke away from the smoke alarm.
In dead-air spaces at the top of peaked
ceilings or in corners where walls and ceiling meet. Dead air can prevent smoke from reaching a smoke alarm.
Within 10 feet (3 m) of fluorescent light
fixtures.
Not suitable for outdoor use.
WARNING! LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE DECTECTORS
Wireless smoke alarms are very reliable, but may not work under all conditions. No fire alarm product provides total protection of life or property. Smoke alarms are not a substitute for life insurance.
Smoke alarms require a source of power to work.
This smoke alarm does not operate and the alarm will not sound if batteries are dead or not installed properly.
Alarms may not be heard. A sound sleeper or someone who has taken drugs or alcohol may not awaken if Touchscreen or Smoke Alarm is installed outside a bedroom. Closed or partially closed doors and distance can block sound. This product is not designed for the hearing impaired.
Smoke alarms may not always activate and provide warning early enough. Smoke alarms only activate when enough smoke reaches the
product’s smoke chamber. If a fire starts in a
chimney, wall, roof, on the other side of closed doors, or on a different level of the property, enough smoke may not reach the product for it to alarm.

Smoke alarms are a significant help in reducing loss, injury and even death. However, no matter how good a detection device is, nothing works perfectly under every circumstance and we must warn you that you cannot expect a smoke alarm to ensure that you will never suffer any damage or injury.
Current studies have shown smoke alarms may not awaken all sleeping individuals. It is the responsibility of individuals in the household that are capable of assisting others to provide aid to those who may not be awakened by the alarm, or to those who may be incapable of safely evacuating the area unassisted.
5 Installing / Replacing Battery
The SMCSM10-Z comes with two 3V Lithium CR123A batteries preinstalled. When you need to replace them use the following procedure. Use batteries specified in this document specifications or as listed on the battery compartment cover. Use of a different battery can have a detrimental effect on the alarm operation. Constant exposures to high or low humidity can reduce battery life.
A. Remove the SMCSM10-Z from the mounting
base (see “Mounting the Sensor” on page 4).
B. Slide the battery compartment cover away
from the SMCSM10-Z to unsnap it and lift it off.
C. If you are replacing batteries, remove and
dispose of the batteries appropriately. Wait 30 seconds after removal before continuing to the next instruction.
D. Observing proper polarity as indicated in the
battery compartment, insert two new 3V lithium batteries into the SMCSM10-Z battery compartment and replace the battery compartment cover.
Note: Use two new batteries when replacing old
batteries. Do not replace with batteries that were used previously.
E. Reattach the SMCSM10-Z to the mounting
base and test the system.
F. The SMCSM10-Z ships with a dust cover for
protection on construction sites with dusty environments. If your product is new, remove the red plastic dust cover from the SMCSM10­Z.
6 Pairing with Touchscreen
Each SMCSM10-Z is programmed with a unique ID when manufactured. The unique ID is enrolled into the Touchscreen at the time of installation, allowing the SMCSM10-Z to communicate with that specific Touchscreen.
A. From the Home screen, touch the Settings
widget.
B. When the Keypad screen appears, touch the
numbers to enter your keypad code.

7 Mounting the Sensor
The following procedure describes how to mount the SMCSM10-Z. Add the SMCSM10-Z to the Touchscreen before physically mounting it in the desired location.
A. Test communications between the
Touchscreen and the SMCSM10-Z before permanently mounting the SMCSM10-Z as follows:
- Hold the SMCSM10-Z where you plan to
install it.
- Press the SMCSM10-Z Test button for 10-
to-15 seconds. The SMCSM10-Z sends a signal to the Touchscreen.
- At the Touchscreen, verify the signal was
received. A message will appear in the upper right corner of the Touchscreen for 5 seconds. If no signal is received relocate the SMCSM10-Z and retest.
B. Using two supplied screws and anchors,
mount the base.
C. Attach the SMCSM10-Z to the mounting base
as follows:
- Line up the raised alignment tab on the lip
of the SMCSM10-Z with the arrow on the mounting base.
