General Description  
The 5808W3 photoelectronic smoke/heat detector with built-in  
wireless transmitter is intended for use with wireless alarm  
systems that support 5800 series devices. Refer to  
Blinks every Temporal Pattern

control/communicator installation instructions for compatibility.  
The 5808W3 smoke/heat detector can be used with any 5800 series  
wireless receiver/transceiver for residential installations. For  
commercial installations, the 5881ENHC or the 5883H receiver is  
required. The transmitter can send alarm, tamper, maintenance  
(when control panels are equipped to process maintenance signals),  
and battery condition messages to the system’s receiver. The  
maintenance signal fully complies with the sensitivity test  
requirement specified in NFPA 72, 7-2.2 and is approved by UL.  
Refer to the wireless system’s instructions for the maximum  
number of transmitters that can be supported.

During initial power-up, the red and green LEDs will blink  
synchronously once every 5 seconds. It will take approximately 20  
seconds for the detector to finish the power-up cycle (see Table 1).  
The 5808W3 incorporates a state-of-the-art optical sensing chamber  
and an advanced microprocessor. The microprocessor allows the  
detector to automatically maintain proper operation at factory  
calibrated detection levels, even when sensitivity is altered due to  
the presence of contaminants settling into the unit’s smoke  
chamber. In order for this feature to work properly, the chamber  
must never be opened while power is applied to the smoke detector.  
This includes cleaning, maintenance or screen replacement. All  
models also feature a restorable, built-in, fixed temperature (135°F)  
thermal detector and is also capable of sensing a pre-freeze  
condition if the temperature is below 41°F.  
After power-up has completed and the detector is functioning  
normally within its listed sensitivity range, the green LED blinks  
once every 10 seconds. If the detector is in need of maintenance  
because its sensitivity has shifted outside the listed limits, the red  
LED blinks once every 5 seconds. When alarm has been activated  
by smoke, the red LED blinks every 1 second. During a thermal  
alarm condition (>135°F) the red LED blinks once every 4 seconds.  
The LED indication must not be used in place of the tests specified  
under Testing. In a freeze trouble condition, the red LED will blink  
once every 10 seconds (refer to Table 1). If the detector senses a low  
battery condition, the red LED blinks once every 45 seconds.  
The 5808W3 contains a piezoelectric horn which generates the  
ANSI S3.41 temporal pattern in an alarm condition. In alarm, a  
message is also sent to the wireless control panel and the smoke  
detector’s zone number is displayed at the console. The alarm  
message is transmitted every 4 seconds until the smoke or heat  
condition has cleared and the detector has reset. During an alarm  
condition, pressing the detector’s test switch will silence the  
piezoelectric horn for 5 minutes. Once the detector has reset, a  
RESTORE message is transmitted to the control panel and the  
transmitter’s zone number can be cleared from the panel. The built-  
in Drift Compensation algorithm automatically maintains the  
sensitivity of the detector. Once the detector reaches its limit of  
compensation, it transmits a maintenance signal to the panel. The  
mounting base installation is simplified by the incorporation of  
features compatible with drywall fasteners or other methods that  
provide a method for securing the detector in place.  
To measure the detector’s sensitivity, the i3 Series Model SENS-  
RDR Infrared Sensitivity Reader tool (see Figure 4) should be used.  
Refer to instruction manual D100-98-00 for proper use of the SENS-  
RDR.  
Low Battery Detection  
The 5808W3 is powered by a single 3-volt CR123A or DL123A  
Lithium battery (included). The detector checks for a low battery at  
least every 65 minutes. If a low battery is detected, the transmitter  
sends a low battery message to the control panel, which beeps and  
displays the detector’s zone number. In addition, the red LED of the  
5808W3 will blink every 45 seconds and the test switch will be  
disabled. This condition will exist for a minimum of 7 days, and  
then the detector’s horn will “chirp” about every 45 seconds.  
Pressing the test switch during this time will silence the chirps for  
12 hours. The battery should be replaced BEFORE the chirps begin.  
Be sure to replace the battery with a fresh one.  
Two LEDs and a sounder on the detector provide local visual and  
audible indication of the detector’s status:

C. Direct Heat Method (Hair dryer of 1000-1500 watts)  
Dust covers are an effective way to limit the entry of dust into the  
smoke detector sensing chamber during construction. However,  
they may not completely prevent airborne dust particles from  
entering the detector. Therefore, it is recommended that the  
detectors be removed before beginning construction or other dust  
producing activity. When returning the system to service, be sure to  
remove the dust covers from any detectors that were left in place  
during construction.  
Direct the heat toward either side thermistor. Be sure to hold the  
heat source about 12 inches from the detector to avoid damage to  
the plastic. The detector will reset only after it has time to cool.  
Smoke detection testing is recommended for verifying system  
protection capability.  
A detector that fails to activate with any of these tests should first  
be cleaned as outlined in this manuals MAINTENANCE section. If  
the detector still fails to activate, return for repair.  
Smoke detectors are not to be used with detector guards unless the  
combination has been evaluated and found suitable for that  
purpose.  
Testing Signal Strength  
Tamper Protection  
NOTE: Remove battery tab before installation.  
This detector has a built-in tamper switch that will cause a CHECK  
signal to be displayed at the console of the alarm system if it is  
removed from its mounting base. The 5808W3 detector includes a  
tamper-resistant feature that prevents removal from the mounting  
base without the use of a tool. To engage the tamper-resistant  
feature, cut the small plastic tab located on the mounting base  
(Figure 2), and then install the detector. To remove the detector  
from the base once it has been made tamper resistant, use a small  
screwdriver to depress the square tamper release tab, located on  
the skirt of the mounting base, and turn the detector  
This test should be performed before installation to determine a  
strong communication path with the control panel and after  
installation is complete. Also, the owner/user should test the unit at  
least weekly.  
1. Activate the wireless systems GO/NO GO TEST mode from  
the keypad.  
2. Depress and hold the smoke detectors TEST switch. If the  
detector has not previously detected a low battery condition  
and it is within proper sensitivity limits, the detector should  
immediately transmit an alarm signal to the control panel.  
The built-in horn will start to sound about 2.5 seconds after  
depressing the button.  
counterclockwise.  
Testing the Sensor  
NOTE: Before testing, notify the central station that the smoke  
detector system is undergoing maintenance, in order to prevent  
unwanted alarms.  
3. The wireless systems keypad should emit at least three  
audible sounds when the alarm transmission is received and  
will display the transmitting detectors zone number.  
During initial power-up, do not use SENS-RDR or canned smoke to  
test the detector. The SENS-RDR and canned aerosol can be used  
after power-up sequence has completed. Detectors must be tested  
after installation and following periodic maintenance. The 5808W3  
may be tested as follows:  
4. When the console has received the test signal, release the  
TEST switch. The horn will immediately stop and a few  
seconds later the detectors zone number will clear from the  
console display.  
5. If the console does not respond as noted, check the polarity of  
the battery and be sure it is fresh. If this is an initial  
installation, try moving the detector to another location that  
provides proper reception. Also be sure that the detector has  
been enrolledby the control panel (see PROGRAMMING).  
Then, repeat the test.  
A. Test Switch  
1. A recessed test switch is located on the detector  
housing (see Figure 4).  
2. Push and hold the recessed test switch for a minimum of 5  
seconds. Use a small screwdriver or Allen key with maximum  
diameter of 0.18 inch (the alarm panel will trigger and then  
the smoke detector will go into alarm. If the tool is removed  
from the recessed switch the sounder will shut off.)  
6. Turn off the systems TEST mode from the keypad (security  
code + OFF).  
Testing Programmed Loops  
This test should be performed before installation to ensure that all  
loops intended to be used have been programmed and are  
operational in the system.  
If the detector is within the listed sensitivity limits, the LED  
on the detector should blink once per second and the horn  
should sound within 3 seconds.  
1. Activate the systems TRANSMITTER ID SNIFFER mode  
from the keypad (see the control panels instructions). All  
programmed wireless zones will be displayed, one by one, on  
the system keypad. Make sure all smoke detector zones are  
displayed in the sequence. (If they are not, recheck that all  
zones have been properly programmed.)

proper authorities and the central station that maintenance is  
being performed and the system will be temporarily out of service.  
Disable the zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent any  
unwanted alarms. Power must be removed from the detector before  
performing maintenance of any kind by removing the detectors  
battery.  
8. Reinstall the battery into the battery compartment noting  
proper orientation.  
9. Reinstall the detector and test. (See the Testing section.)
