Functional check:
Note: The test tone is much quieter than the actual alarm tone to protect your hearing! To check the function, keep
the TEST button pressed for approx. 3s. The alarm tone sounds and the LED lights up red. This is to check whether
the electronics, the alarm of the smoke alarm detector and the batteries are functioning. The alarm tone stops
immediately after releasing the TEST button.
Note: If neither the alarm sounds nor the LED flashes, the batteries may be flat or the unit may be defective. First
replace the batteries. If the unit still does not work, it is defective. In this case, the unit must be replaced with a new
functioning unit!
Temporary muting the Alarm:
In the event of a false alarm, the alarm tone can be muted for approx. 10 minutes. It is essential to ensure that the
alarm was not triggered by a fire! To mute the alarm temporarily, press the TEST button. Then open doors and
windows to clean the air. If the air still has a high number of combustion particles after 10 minutes, the alarm will
sound again. The mute function can be repeated as often as required by pressing the TEST button. Activation of the
mute function is not possible in case of excessive smoke development. To deactivate the mute function, press the
TEST button!
Recurrent self-test of the smoke alarm detector on its function:
The smoke alarm detector performs every 50 seconds a self-test. You can see this by a short blink of the LED.
Networking several devices with each other :
General information on networking:
Up to 15 units from the same manufacturer and the same product series can be networked together. The units should
not be installed and operated further than 35m apart. The following devices can be networked together: Smoke
detector type: GS559A, Heat detector type: GS412, Water detector type: GS156A, Carbon monoxide detector type:
GS816A, Gateway type:GS188
For networking, you need at least two networked devices. Each device is provided with a code by the manufacturer.
There are a total of over 60,000 encodings. If one device is connected to another one, it will accept the code of the
other. An already networked device, which is to be connected to a new device, takes over the code of the new
device. Please note that devices may only be interlinked within an apartment or a family home!
1. Take a device that you want to network with another device and put it in the transmission mode. Press the
TEST button 3 times in succession. The LED lights up red for about 10 seconds continuously.
2. While the first device is in transmission mode for approximately 10 seconds (LED lights continuously red),
take another device and press the TEST button 3 times in succession. If a short beep sounds and the LED
flashes briefly, networking was successful.
3. In order to network additional devices with the first device, repeat steps 1 and 2 until all devices are
networked together.
4. Afterwards, check whether the devices are properly networked by carrying out a functional check. Press
and hold the TEST button on any networked device. If the alarm sounds on all networked devices while you
hold down the TEST button, the networking was successful. To stop the function check, release the TEST
button. The other devices stop beeping after a maximum of one minute.
on all devices, repeat the first two steps with the affected device, and repeat the function check.
5. If the function check is unsuccessful again, perform a RESET (see chapter RESET-Mode) of the device
and check the batteries. Then repeat the first two steps.
If the alarm sounds not
