The Bellman Visit Smoke Alarm does not require any connections.
No adjustments are required for normal use. The relevant descriptions are provided below, if you wish to change a setting for some reason.
In order to use several Bellman Visit Systems close to one another without interference, different Radio Keys can be set on the different systems. All Bellman Visit System units are supplied from the factory tuned to the same Radio Key, channel 0. This means that all Radio Key Switches on the transmitters are set to the OFF position.
All Bellman Visit products within a system must be tuned to the same Radio Key in order to operate as a group. If the broadcast switch (7) is in the ON position, however, all Visit receivers are activated when a fire alarm signal is detected regardless of the Radio Key. If an incorrect Radio Key is set on the Smoke Alarm, neither the battery warning nor the Test Button will work with Visit System’s receivers. This function ensures that, when in Broadcast mode, you will not interfere with other Visit Systems when you test the smoke alarm or have a low battery.
A Signal Pattern is the name for the way in which a receiver in the Visit System indicates activation. Changing the transmitters’ Signal Switch changes the Signal Pattern which the receivers display when the transmitter is activated.
Type | LED pattern | Sound | Vibration | Flash |
---|---|---|---|---|
Fire alarm | Red bliks constantly | Fire alarm constant | Long | Yes |
Fire alarm low battery | Red blinks every five seconds | No | No | No |
Fire alarm flat battery | Red blinks in every five seconds | Fire alarm one short | One short | Yes |
It is easy to test the Bellman Smoke Alarm. If the Smoke Alarm does not work as described below, you can check further under Troubleshooting/Troubleshooting guide.
Test the Smoke Alarm at least once per month and preferably each week, e.g. during cleaning. Always test it immediately after any holidays or other extended periods of absence.
A receiver in the Bellman Visit System which is set to the same Radio Key as the Smoke Alarm is required to test the Smoke Alarm with the Test Button (1) or by blowing in smoke.
Proceed as follows:
You can carry out a number of checks yourself before sending a product for repair.
