IC: (Hardwire Interconnect- normally not used
except to hardwire interconnect to mains smoke
alarms which don’t have an Ei168 RadioLINK
Base)
The alarm does not need to be earthed. However the
earth terminal is provided for the convenience of the
installers so that any earth wire or cable coloured green
or green & yellow, can be safety terminated.
Note: House wiring should not be bunched up in
the area of the alarms but quickly directed away.
This will minimize their effect on the radio aerial.
7. Replace the wiring cover.
8. Remove the required Smoke/ Heat Alarm from
the box (discard the mounting plate supplied).
Carefully line up the smoke/heat alarm on the
Ei168 RadioLINK Base and slide it on
(see fig 4).
9. Connect the mains power to the alarm circuit.
Check the green light is on. If the amber light
flashes every 10 seconds, remove the alarm
(see figure 5 on how to remove alarm ) and
manually depress the rechargeable cell "on"
switch as shown in figure 7 and replace the
alarm. If there is still a problem the cells may be
SLIDE
