LYNX Touch is not intended for UL985 Household Fire applications unless a 24-hour
backup battery (P/N LYNXRCHKIT-SHA) is installed.
General
Your fire alarm system (if installed) is active 24 hours a day, providing continuous
protection. In the event of an emergency, the installed smoke, heat and/or carbon monoxide
detectors will automatically activate your security system, triggering a loud, intermittent
sound from the touchscreen. The sound will be interlaced with the voice descriptor, sounding
every 15 seconds. A “FIRE” or “CO” message will appear at your touchscreen and remain on
until you silence and clear the alarm display.
In Case of Fire
1. Should you become aware of a fire emergency
before
your detectors sense the problem, go
to the LYNX Touch and press and hold the panic key and then select the Fire icon. The alarm
will sound and an alarm will be transmitted to the central station.
2. Evacuate all occupants from the premises.
3. If flames and/or smoke are present, leave the premises and notify your local Fire Department
immediately.
4. If no flames or smoke are apparent, investigate the cause of the alarm. The zone number of
the zone(s) in an alarm condition will appear at the touchscreen.
In Case of Carbon Monoxide Alarm
1. If a high level of carbon monoxide is detected you should evacuate all occupants from the
premises and immediately move to a spot where fresh air is available, preferably outdoors.
2. From a safe area, contact your security service provider for further instructions.
Silencing a Fire/Carbon Monoxide Alarm
1. Silence the alarm by entering an OFF sequence.
2. To clear the alarm, enter a second OFF sequence.
3 If the touchscreen indicates a trouble condition after the second OFF sequence, check that
smoke detectors are not responding to smoke- or heat-producing objects in their vicinity.
Should this be the case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke.
4. If this does not remedy the problem, there may still be smoke in the detector. Clear it by
fanning the detector for about 30 seconds.
5. When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by entering another OFF sequence.
