2GIG Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm, part number 2GIG‐CO3‐345 is a 3V battery
powered wireless detector intended for use with wireless alarm systems. The
detector consists of an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor assembly coupled
to a wireless transmitter. The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm communicates with
the Control Panel and can send alarm, tamper and battery condition messages to
the system’s receiver. To know the maximum number of transmitters that can be
supported, see the 2GIG Security System Install Guide.
IMPORTANT:
This detector must be tested and maintained regularly
following NFPA 720 requirements.
This device is designed to
protect individuals from the
acute effects of carbon
monoxide exposure. It will not
fully safeguard individuals
with specific medical
conditions. If in doubt consult
a medical practitioner.
WARNING:
This Carbon
Monoxide Alarm is
intended for use in
ordinary indoor
residential areas. It is not
designed to measure
compliance with
Occupational Safety &
Health Administration
(OSHA) commercial and
industrial standards.

The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm contains a sounder which generates the ANSI
S3.41 temporal 4 pattern in an alarm condition (for temporal 4 pattern, see the
following table). In alarm, a message is also sent to the Control Panel and the
detector’s ID is displayed on the screen. During an alarm condition, pressing the
detector’s hush button will silence the sounder for five minutes. The mounting base
installation is simplified by the incorporation of features compatible for both
drywall fasteners (not supplied) and other methods.
Tri‐colored LED (green, yellow, red) and a sounder on the detector provide local
visual and audible indication of the detector’s status as listed in the following table.
During initial power‐up the LED blinks alternately green, yellow then red. It takes
about 60 seconds for the detector’s CO sensor to stabilize.
After power‐up has completed and the detector is functioning normally, the green
LED blinks once every 12 seconds.
Detector Trouble
When the sensor supervision is in trouble condition, the yellow LED blinks once
every six seconds and there is a chirp every 45 seconds. After 12 hours the panel
will display a loss of supervision message.
Detector End-of-Life
When the detector has reached the end of its life, the yellow LED blinks once every
23 seconds and there is a chirp every 45 seconds. After 12 hours the panel will
display a loss of supervision message. This indicates that the CO sensor inside the
detector has passed the end of its life and the detector must be replaced. The
detector lifespan is five years from the date of manufacture.
Low Battery Detection
The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm is powered by a single 3‐volt CR123A
Panasonic Lithium battery. The detector regularly checks for a low battery. If a low
battery is detected, the transmitter sends a low battery message to the Control
Panel, which displays the detector’s ID at low battery. In addition, the yellow LED of
the detector will blink every 12 seconds. The detector’s sounder will chirp every 45
seconds (yellow LED continues to blink) until the battery is replaced. Pressing the
hush button silences the chirps for 12 hours, if no other trouble conditions exist.
Replace the battery when the chirps begin. Be sure to replace the battery with a
fresh one.
Constant exposures to high or low temperatures or high humidity may
reduce battery life!
Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the user’s authority
to operate the equipment.
Inserting and Replacing Batteries
1
Remove the detector from its mounting base by twisting the detector
counterclockwise. Remove and dispose of the battery according to local
regulations.
2
To ensure proper power‐down sequence, wait a minimum of 20 seconds before
installing new battery.
3
Install a new 3‐volt CR123A Panasonic Lithium battery (available from your
Panasonic dealer) in the battery compartment. Follow the polarity diagram
inside the compartment! If the battery is incorrectly inserted, remove gently
with a non‐conductive tool and correctly reinsert.
4
Reinstall onto the mounting base by turning the detector clockwise.
5
After the power‐up sequence the green LED should blink about once every 12
seconds to indicate normal operation. If the battery is not installed correctly,
the detector will not operate and the battery may be damaged. If the detector
does not power‐up, check fora fully charged battery.
