| Remote Alarm
DESCRIPTION
Due to different designs of cabinets, different materials and thicknesses, the sonic signal from the CPU board can in some cases be attenuated to a db (loudness) level that will not activate the shutoff of the power supply to a range. If this is the case, an optional external remote alarm is available to help maintain the higher db (loudness) level to optimize the operation of the electric/gas shutoff for the stove.
FIGURE 5
Installation:
If the remote alarm is required, perform the following installation steps
-
Mount the remote alarm in a convenient location above the stove on the underside of the range hood or cabinet.
-
Feed the cable wire through the access hole into the system enclosure.
-
Position the cable wire on the same side of the cylinder as the sensor wires.
-
Connect the cable wire connector to location � � P2" designation on the CPU board. See FIGURE 6 below.
-
Verify that external alarm is working during system checkout.

Manual Remote Pull Station
DESCRIPTION
A manual remote pull station is available where local fire codes or circumstances require the capability to manually activate the range top extinguisher system. See FIGURE 7 below.
FIGURE 7
Manual activation of the system will cause the extinguisher unit to fully discharge extinguishing agent, shut off the range top burners and activate the alarm or other electrical accessory. Once activated, the automatic sequence cannot be interrupted.
The manual pull station is installed at a height not exceeding 60" from the floor and should be located in the path of exit. Avoid locating the manual pull station where the occupant would have to reach over the range top-cooking element to activate the system. (Some jurisdictions require certain distances.)
NOTE: An Identification sign shall be installed indicating "NOT BUILDING FIRE ALARM PULL STATION."
Installation
-
Determine the best location for the manual pull station. The location must be accessible as required.
-
Install cable in conduit or attach using cable clamps as required by jurisdiction.
-
Feed the cable wire through the access hole into the system enclosure.
-
Position the cable wire on the same side of the cylinder as the sensor wires.
-
Connect (overlap sensor terminals) the cable wire spade terminals to location "P1-3 & 4" designation on Main CPU. See FIGURE 8 below.
-
Verify that manual remote pull station is working during system checkout.
