Dual-color LED
A dual-color LED indicator flashes green every 8 sec when
the detector has power and the smoke sampling circuitry is
working. If CleanMe is enabled, the green LED double
flashes (two flashes a half second apart) every 8 sec to
indicate normal operation. The LED turns red if an alarm is
sent. After the alarm condition clears, reset the detector by
interrupting its power. If the chamber becomes
contaminated beyond its ability to compensate, the green
LED flashes every 4 sec to indicate trouble.
Test Functions
The F220 Photoelectric Smoke Detectors feature a unique
magnet operation and sensitivity test function. Test the
detector's operation by placing the magnet next to the
detector's LED for three consecutive flashes. This causes
the detector to send an alarm. Placing a magnet next to the
detector's LED for at least one red flash but less than three
flashes activates the detector's sensitivity mode.
Tamper Detection
When detector heads are correctly installed in any of the
F220-B6 bases, the positive power line provides tamper
detection. The control panel initiates a trouble signal if a
detector is removed from its base. A mechanical tamper
lock comes with each base to prevent unauthorized head
removal.

Installation/Configuration Notes
Compatible Control Panels
Addressable Systems: compatible with addressable
systems controlled by D9412GV2, D7412GV2, D9412G, or
D7412G Control Panels or the D9124 Fire Alarm Control
Panel when used with the F220-B6PM or F220-B6PS
Addressable Detector Bases.
Two-wire: Bosch Security Systems, Inc. makes no claim
written, oral, or implied that the F220 Photoelectric Smoke
Detectors work with any two-wire control panels except
those specified in the Control Panel Compatibility chart in
the Technical Service Note (P/N: 4998148185).
Four-wire: compatible with all UL Listed four-wire control
panels. Refer to the control panel's installation instructions
for proper end-of-line (EOL) resistor selection.
Mounting the Bases
Note Consult NFPA‑72 for proper detector
placement.
Depending on local regulations, the bases can be surface
mounted directly on four-inch square or octagonal electrical
boxes and single-gang switch boxes.
Note The volume of any electrical box used should
be large enough to accommodate the number
and size of conductors as specified by the
National Electrical Code or any local
authorities having jurisdiction (AHJ).
Loop Supervision
Loop supervision requires one D275 or F220-B6E per loop
when using F220‑B6R/B6C bases and is supervised by the
control panel.
Wiring the Bases
Refer to the F220 Series Detectors with F220‑B6/C/E/R
Bases Installation Instructions (P/N: 4998138694), the
F220 Series Detectors with F220‑B6RS Bases Installation
Instructions (P/N: F01U029847), or the F220-B6PS/M
Installation Instructions (P/N: 4998149982) for detailed
wiring instructions.
