Question
Do Bosch addressable smokes and smoke bases support CleanMe functions?
Answer
Currently the only Bosch smoke detector that supports CleanMe functions is the F220 series smoke heads when used with a conventional two-wire (F220-B6) base only and a CleanMe enabled control panel such as the D7024, and FPD-7024 conventional zones.
Note: The D7050, D7050TH does have a Chamber Check feature that will report dirty smoke if the head needs cleaning when used on the D7024, FPD-7024, DS9400m, DS9400, DS9400i.
The goal is to have a fully illuminated field of view for the installed AVIOTEC/s. Testing is required for every installation to make sure, that the area is illuminated correctly with full coverage and no reflections, aberrations or other.
Issue What could be the cause when adding four System Sensor Horn / Strobes to a Wheelock audio visual loop, and the horns are worrking fine but the strobes are not flashing correctly. Solution When installing Audio / Visual Appliances, all devices on the loop must be from the same manufacturer. Mixing System Sensor with Wheelock or Gentex or any combination may cause the Horns or the Strobes to work intermittently or not at all. This is because each manufacturer has their own Sync Pulse Protocol to run their notification devices.
