Operating Principles
The REACH Wireless Optical Smoke Detector features an advanced dual-optical chamber design.
Status LED
It also includes a 360° LED indicator which illuminates red or green to indicate status conditions
| Table 1: REACH Wireless Device Status & LED Indication | |
| Device Status | LED Indication |
| Power Up | Blinks green four times |
| Power Up (dip-switch ON) | Blinks red four times |
| Entering Wake-Up | Blinks alternatively green/red four times |
| Link Success | Blinks green four times, then repeats |
| Link Failure | Enters wake-up mode and signals ‘Entering wake-up mode’ following this failure |
| Normal Condition | LED off |
| Alarm | Red 1s, period 2s |
| Battery Faults | LED off |
| Tamper Fault | LED off |
| Replaced | Blinks amber two times |
Device Addressing
Device addressing is handled by the REACH Wireless LoopInterface device (RW1700-030APO). Devices are soft-addressed automatically when pairing with the Loop Interface and can be changed manually. Hardaddressing using Apollo XPERT cards are not supported.
Communication
REACH Wireless Devices use ‘radio-frequency’ wireless communication to connect to the Loop-Interface. The Loop-Interface (RW1700-030APO) translates the wireless communication into wired Apollo protocol communication, with each device addressable individually by the fire panel. See datasheets for the Loop-Interface for more information.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance must be performed in accordance with all applicable standards. Clean the detector externally using a soft damp cloth. For full cleaning and recalibration detectors should be returned to Apollo Fire Detectors.
Tamper detection
REACH Wireless devices contain an anti-tamper mechanism. In the event of removal from its base, it sends a tamper detection message to the Loop-Interface. Tampering detection is not signalled visually by the device LED.
Base Compatibility
This device is supplied with a standard wireless base and is compatible with the following AV bases:
| Table 2: REACH Wireless Base Compatibility | |
| Part Number | Product Name |
| RW1300-110APO | REACH Wireless Sounder Base |
| RW1300-210APO | REACH Wireless Sounder VAD Base (White Flash) (C-3-15) |
| RW1300-211APO | REACH Wireless Sounder VAD Base (Red Flash) (C-3-10) |
Batteries
REACH Wireless devices are supplied with two CR123batteries, battery A and B. The device switches periodically between the two batteries on a controlled sequence. For correct operation of the device, both batteries are required with adequate capacity reserves. When battery A reaches a low power threshold, it will trigger a fault. This fault requires both batteries to be replaced in every instance as both batteries should be discharging equally. When one (or both) batteries lack power, the Loop-Interface receives a low battery message and will signal this event on its in-built display, as well as relay the low battery message to the fire control panel. The battery fault will also be signalled by the device itself through its LED indicators if programmed (see table 1).
