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 manual’s 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 system’s GO/NO GO TEST mode from
the keypad.
2. Depress and hold the smoke detector’s 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 system’s keypad should emit at least three
audible sounds when the alarm transmission is received and
will display the transmitting detector’s 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 detector’s 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 “enrolled” by 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 system’s 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 system’s TRANSMITTER ID SNIFFER mode
from the keypad (see the control panel’s 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.)

Maintenance
NOTE: Before performing maintenance on the detector, notify the
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 detector’s
battery.
8. Reinstall the battery into the battery compartment noting
proper orientation.
9. Reinstall the detector and test. (See the Testing section.)
10. Notify the central station when the system is back in service.
