Learn Mode Freeze Sensor Installation Instructions Overview DO NOT The ITI Learn Mode (LM) Freeze Sensor contains a thermal couple wired to a transmitter. The LM Freeze Sensor detects a furnace failure in a home or business. It activates a switch
(thermal couple) when the surrounding temperature drops to Locate the sensor in the same room as a furnace, water heater, or any other heat source that may stay warm after the furnace fails.
~45F. After the sensor is tripped, a temperature between 55F Locate the sensor on an outside wall or near the and 60F is necessary for the device to send a restore signal. basement floor. The LM Freeze Sensor:
Contains an RF transmitter capable of transmitting over 500 feet. Is powered by a 3.5-Vdc lithium battery, which lasts 5-8 years. Sends a Trouble (Low Battery) report to the CPU. Sends a supervisory signal to CPU every 64 minutes. Has an operating range of 10F to 120F. Contains a built-in tamper switch. Remove the sensor cover to trip the switch. The sensor then transmits a Trouble signal to the CPU. Place in areas with excessive metal or electrical wiring. These items may inhibit the sensors signals from reaching the CPU. Place sensor in an area where it will be exposed to moisture. Place the sensor in an area where the temperature will fall outside the sensors operating limits (10F-120F). Installation CAUTION: You must be free of all static electricity when handling transmitters. Touch a grounded metal object before handling the circuit board. Handle the circuit board by the edges and never set the circuit board on any Has a tamper switch, which cannot be disabled. metallic surface. Monitors an open area of about 900 square feet (30 x 30). 1. Press on the cover end to disengage the top of the cover from the slot in the sensor base, and then remove the Installation Considerations transmitter cover. 2. Remove the circuit board from the transmitter base by pushing back on the base release tab. See Figure 1. DO Try to keep sensors within 100 feet of the CPU. The 100-
foot distance recommendation is given as a starting guideline. The transmitter has an open-air range of over 500 feet, but the installation environment may affect this range. Locate the sensor in an area that is likely to get cold first. Locate the sensor on an interior wall where there is free movement of air. P/N 46-550 REV B 06JUN14 1 Figure 1: Base release tab location 1. Set the CPU into Program Mode. 2. Trip the devices tamper switch. See Figure 1. 3. Replace the sensor cover. Note: Refer to the appropriate CPU installation manual for specific instructions for programming device into the CPU. Testing General guidelines for performing a Dealer Signal Strength Test are:
1. Using the appropriate touchpad for the CPU, enter the applicable Dealer Sensor Test code. 2. Cool thermal couple with a piece of ice in a plastic bag. When the thermal couple reaches ~45F, the transmitter sends an RF signal to the CPU. 3. Note the number of beeps from the CPU. These beeps indicate the devices signal strength. 3. Place transmitter in sensor cover to protect circuit board 4. The device resets when the surrounding temperature against static damage. reaches 55F-60F 4. Secure the sensor base to mounting surface by using #6 Regulatory information pan head screws or #18 x 1/2 wire nails (brads). If mounting on plaster, use the appropriate fasteners. Use the slotted mounting hole for alignment. See Figure 2.
