WST-600 - Ecolink FireFighter Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Audio Detector (DSC Compatible)
Please Note: The Ecolink WST-600 smoke and carbon monoxide audio detector has been discontinued without replacement.
Ecolink WST-600 Product Description:
The Ecolink WST-600 FireFighter™ is a smoke and carbon monoxide audio detector that is compatible with DSC 433 MHz wireless sensors. The WST-600 FireFighter sensor is designed to listen to any 120V interconnected or battery powered UL Listed smoke, carbon or combo detector. Once confirmed as an alarm, it will transmit a signal to the alarm control panel which if connected to the GeoArm entral monitoring station, will dispatch the fire department.
All Smoke detector should be replaced after 10 year. If you encounter a smoke detector that does not support Temporal 3 pattern, that smoke should be replaced as per the manufacturer recommendation. If replacement is not an option the WST-600 FireFighter can be programmed to detect non-temporal detectors.

• Installation Manual and User Guide for Ecolink WST-600 FireFighter Smoke and CO Audio Detector
Ecolink WST-600 Product Mounting:
Included with this device is a mounting bracket, hardware and double sided tape. To ensure proper operation ensure the side of the device with the small holes is directly facing the sounder holes on the smoke detector. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall or ceiling using the two mounting screws and double sided tape provided, then secure the audio detector to the mounting bracket using the small screw provided. The FireFighter™ must be mounting within 6 inches of the detector for optimal operation.
It is possible that the sensor can hear other smoke detectors in close proximity so it is important to choose and to install the sensor close to a detector that is relatively isolated from other detector. It that is not possible, the sensor will still function it will however take longer to register and transmit to the panel. Smoke detectors to avoid are typically ones mounted in hallways outside of bedrooms that will also have additional smoke detectors.
Ecolink WST-600 Product Testing:
To test the RF transmission from the mounted position you can either generate a tamper by removing the cover or press the learn button located next to the tamper switch. Press and release ONCE to send a Smoke signal or press and HOLD for 2 seconds to send a Carbon signal. Within the first hour of power up the sensor is in a test mode. This mode is designed to work with the test button of the smoke detector so that only 1 or 2 temporal patterns is required to trigger the sensor. After the 1 hour has elapsed the sensor will require at least 3 rounds of either temporal 3 (smoke) or temporal 4 (CO) before it will send a transmission to the control panel. Ensure the FireFighter cover is on and that you wear hearing protection when doing the audio testing. Then simply press and hold the smoke detector test button. If 24 Hr, delay fire zone type is used the alarm must be active for 30 second before the panel will transmit to the GeoArm Central Station.
Please Note: This system must be checked by a qualified technician at least once every three (3) years. Please test the unit once per week to ensure proper functionality.
