Figure 2 Horn
Horn only units provide one unique tone for each alarm level. The tone settings for these units are set at the
Detcon factory and cannot be changed by the user. These alarm tones can be initiated individually, but if both
alarms are active, the tone for alarm two has priority.
1.2 Smart Battery Pack
Figure 3 Smart Battery Pack
The Wireless Alarm Station assembly also comes with a battery pack that allows the assembly to be remotely
mounted without the need for any cables because of its wireless operation. The battery pack provided is
Detcon’s plug-in Smart Battery Pack which provides an output of 12VDC (See Figure 3). The battery pack
consists of rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries and is equipped with integrated safety electronics that include
fuel gauge, voltage, current and temperature monitoring circuits. This “smart” circuitry continuously monitors
the battery’s condition and reports critical status information to the wireless transceiver. The battery pack is
designed to plug onto an 8-pin Beau connector on the terminal board and should not be exposed to outside
elements without being housed and protected. Only Detcon products specifically designed to utilize these
battery packs should be used. Operating periods before recharge for the Wireless DM-100 assembly can be as
long as 2-3 months and battery life can be up to 5 years before battery pack replacement is required. Improper
use of the battery pack may be hazardous to personnel or the environment and will void the warranty.
NOTE: The unit will not function if the battery pack is weak or discharged. The Battery pack should be
checked periodically, and charged or changed as needed.
