i. INTRODUCTION

The alarm Monitor KA300 is developed to bridge the gap created by the existing

warning devices designed only for the hearing. It provides a totally reliable source for

the Deaf and Hard of Hearing to watch and to be alerted when there is a fire, smoke,

propane, gas leak alarm, tornado, hurricane, severe thunder storm alert, or when a

national attack warning activates its siren. You will be worry free to select any alarm

system designed without considering whether it supports the hearing impaired.

You will find its lifesaving features especially with multifamily, dormitory, or hotel’s

alarm system while you are asleep and the evacuating siren is activated. It also lets

you know what source triggered the alarm.

It is very easy to install the KA300TX sensor directly to the existing alarm system. It

could save you a great cost to equip the local Hearing Impaired compatible alarm

device. Most of existing alarm devices, if it is separated from source of the smoke,

will not alert you when there is a fire that happens somewhere in a multi-room build-

ing or will not respond to the evacuating siren.

For a single-family household, KA300 gives you great flexibility to build your own

system with multiple transmitters and multiple receivers. It operates based upon code

protection. The wireless link will save you from wiring the system and help to install

the whole alarm monitor system within minutes.

For maximum safety, the KA300RX main receiver works with both AC and battery

backup. In AC adapter mode, KA300RX triggers the alarm with the 177,000mCd

strobe light, loud siren and ultra-light 1,000mCd LEDs. If the AC power failed, the

unit will go to battery backup mode. The ultra-light LED and the siren will be acti-

vated. The strobe light will not work in battery backup mode.

KBS300RX is equipped with a strong bed shaker that will guaranty to wake the deep-

est sleeper.

The technique of Time-Condition-Signal verifying, combined with a fine tuning

threshold, substantially reduces the possibility of a nuisance alarm. The operation

code can be changed easily to stop false alarms that are caused from a neighboring

Alarm Monitor system.

Since you are solely responsibility for your fire and hazards protection, test the sys-

tem weekly and check battery backup regularly to maintain the efficiency operation.

Afailed operating system will not protect you.

Please read this user manual carefully first to understand the operation of the system

before planning anything and keep it for future reference.

* Keep your sale receipt with this manual in case that you need warranty service.

ALARM MONITOR KA300 WORKS

KA300system is designed to monitor all existing acoustic alarm units in your living

area and transfer it to a visual and vibration alarm. It will quickly help you to

determine what source triggered the alarm and give you enough time to evacuate

from the building or to locate a shelter. The KA300 is not an alarm system but it is

the vital source for the Deaf and Hearing Impaired to rely upon in an emergency. In

most cases, the alarm was caused by Fire, Smoke, Carbon monoxide, hurricane,

tornado, earthquake, etc.

USING KA300 FOR A SINGLE FAMILY HOUSEHOLD

You must choose one operation

code for KA300 system used for

your house. Set all transmitters

KA300TX to that operation code.

All KA300TX used for a smoke

detector will be set to channel one.

The other will be set for channel

two and three. There will be no

limit for the number of transmit-

ters used in the same channel

setting. However, the distance

from the TX to the RX will be

limited to around 100 feet. If you

have a KBS300RX bed shaker,

you need to program the operation

code for it when you program the

KA300RX. You can program the

bed shaker at a different time. It

will be more convenient to program the operation code for both receivers at the

same time.

Note: The toggle switch will be either in the ON or OFF position. We will call ON position 1 and the

OFF position 0. For example, if all 8 switches are in the ON position, we will write

1111 1111 for that setup code.

CHAPTER

HOW YOUR....

Example:

There are 4 smoke alarms and 3

Carbon Monoxide alarms that

need to be monitor in your house-

hold. You will need seven

KA300TX transmitters. All

seven transmitters will be

set at the same operation

code as: 1000101010

If you use the KA300 system with the weather channel, hurricane, tornado, or

earthquake alarms combine with the fire alarm as illustrated in figure 8, you can choose

for the weather alert at channel 3. Set the same house code for these KA300TX units

and channel jumper to be channel 3.

INSTALL KA300 FOR SINGLE-FAMILY HOME.

Plan the location of the

KA300RX. Refer to Figure 8 to

find the ideal spot to install the

receiver for your house. Hallway

or living room will be a perfect

spot to install the receiver.

Since KA300 system is only an

alarm monitor system, you must

create a fire protection plan for

your family and practice the plan

to make sure that every member in

the family knows what to do when

the alarm triggers. Buy one or two

KA300RX receivers and install

them where they can be seen from

every room in the house.

If you have a 2 story house, each story needs to have one KA300RX receiver. The

programming process for the KA300RX receiver will be discussed later in Chapter 3.

1: HOW YOUR ALARM MONITOR KA300 WORKS (CONT.)

The other three transmitters will be set at

channel two.

Four transmitters installed on the smoke

detectors will be set at channel one.

FIGURE 8

Keep the battery installed and turn the power switch to OFF before bringing it to the

location. Mark on the given label for channel location as fire, mono-carbon, or weather

alert and coordinate them with the installed transmitters. This label is available only for

the KA300RX.

Hearing Impaired people will need one KBS300RX in their bedroom for the best

protection. You can buy many receivers for your needs as long as it still within the 100

feet range. If the house is larger than the range, you will need a wired-fire alarm system.

If one triggers the other will trigger also. In this case, the transmitter only needs to be

installed on the closest fire alarm to the receiver.

TIME-CONDITION-SIGNAL

When an alarm unit triggers, the red LED on the transmitter will stay lit. The address of

the transmitter will be sent to all receivers. After two seconds, if the transmitter

continuously sends an alert signal, the KBS300RX receivers will activate the alarm.

This Time-Condition-Signal process will prevent a “nuisance” alarm.

Important note: In case of a false alarm, you can turn off the power switch of the

receiver and search for which transmitter triggered the alarm by looking for a red LED

on each KA300TX. Try to find out what caused the false alarm at the transmitter. If the

red LED on the transmitter is OFF or free from the alarm signal source, pressing the

reset button on the KBS300RX will turn off the shaker.

FOR HOTEL, DORMITORY OR MULTI-FAMILY HOUSEHOLD

Asingle fire alarm unit cannot trigger when there is fire or smoke somewhere in the

building. The KA300 system will activate the alarm when the alarm system of the hotel,

dormitory, or apartment turns on the siren. Therefore, if there is an evacuation signal

sent out from the fire alarm center of that building, you will be notified whether you are

sleeping or awake, and regardless where you are.

Select only one operation code for your hotel or apartment. Write the code on the cover

of this book and keep it for future reference. There are 1022 combinations available for

you to pick for each room in your hotel or apartment complex. Keep a record of what

combination has been given out to each room so there will not be two rooms operating

with the same code.

Install several KA300TX transmitters on the existing alarm siren in the hallway in 50

70 feet coverage. Set the channel jumper of those transmitters to channel 3.

CHAPTER 1 (CONT.)

INSTALL KA300 FOR

MULTI-FAMILY HOME OR

HOTEL

There is one hotel code applied

for all KA300TX installed in

the hallway. The room code is

applied for each KA300TX in

each room.

With this set up, when there is

an alarm triggered from a local

fire alarm, the KA300RX

receiver and KBS300RX will

activate with channel one

LED indicator. If the

evacuating signal comes from

the hallway siren, the receivers

will activate and indicate

channel three LED.

Program the KA300RX

receiver to respond for either

room code or hotel code.

Important note: Failing to install a transmitter in the hallway for the evacuation siren, may cause the receiver

to not respond to this signal. The range of the transmitter is 100 feet. The receiver will not

respond if the transmitter is out of range. It is recommend to install the transmitter at a 70

feet distance for the area covered.
