Frequently Asked Questions - Connected smoke sensor SOMFY

How do I install the Connected smoke sensor?

First, insert the 9V and 3V batteries. Then, remove the mounting bracket by turning it anticlockwise. Fix the bracket to the ceiling or wall (30-60 cm from corners or ceiling). Finally, attach the sensor by turning it clockwise until it locks.

How do I test the alarm?

Press the test button on the cover. A single beep indicates the device is working. If no beep, check batteries or replace them.

What batteries are required?

The smoke detection and alarm require a 9V battery (type 6LR61, e.g., DURACELL MN1604). The interconnection and TaHoma system require a 3V CR123 battery (e.g., DURACELL ULTRA123).

How long do the batteries last?

The product has a lifetime of 5 years for the sensor and interconnection system. Battery life depends on usage; low battery alerts are sent via TaHoma if connected.

Can I interconnect multiple smoke detectors?

Yes, up to 50 Somfy Connected smoke sensors can interconnect automatically. When one detects smoke, all alarms sound simultaneously.

How do I connect the detector to TaHoma?

On the TaHoma interface, go to Configuration > Add device, then follow the on-screen instructions. The sensor must be added before mounting on the bracket for best results.

Where should I NOT place the smoke detector?

Avoid: outside, near heating/air conditioning, in dusty/dirty areas, bathrooms/kitchens (high humidity), direct sunlight, or places with rapid temperature changes.

What should I do if the alarm chirps intermittently?

A chirp may indicate a low battery or end-of-life. Replace both batteries first. If chirping persists after 30 seconds, reset the device by holding the test button until 6 beeps.

How do I reset the detector to factory settings?

Press and hold the test button until you hear 6 beeps. The sensor is now restored to factory configuration.

How do I clean the smoke detector?

Periodically dust the sensor using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner. Do not use water, solvents, or cleaners. Avoid spraying chemicals near the device.

Installation

Inserting the batteries

Insert the 9V and 3V batteries in their respective locations.

The Connected smoke sensor cannot operate without batteries. Therefore, you must insert the batteries correctly (+ pole on the + side and - pole on the - side).

The 9V battery (DURACELL MN1604, EVEREADY 522, GP1604A) powers the smoke detection and alert system.

The 3V battery (DURACELL ULTRA123, ENERGIZER 123) powers the interconnection system between the sensor and operation with TaHoma ^® .

Testing the product

Test the Connected smoke sensor by pressing the test button on the cover. If all parts of the product are functioning correctly, a "BEEP" will sound.

If no beep sounds, the appliance has a defective battery or another fault.

Where to fit the Connected smoke sensor:

• On each floor.
• In frequently used rooms that are too far to hear an audible signal (Thanks to the interconnection, if you have several Connected smoke sensors, the alert will spread through the house with no need for additional settings).
• Outside unused rooms, e.g. boiler rooms.

Recommended locations:

• Basic protection
• Enhanced protection

House Apartment

Where not to fit the Connected smoke sensor:

• Outside
• In a location where it is difficult to hear the alarm (room with closed door)
• In a location where it is difficult to access the sensor, in particular to carry out tests
• In a location where the temperature is below 4^ or above 45^
• In a location where the humidity is below 10% or above 95% (bathroom, kitchen, laundry room, etc.)
• In a location affected by large and/or rapid variations in temperature, pressure or humidity
• In a location where the sensor is exposed to direct sunlight
  • In a dusty or dirty location (garage, workshop, etc.)
  • In a location infested with insects
• In a location where smoke or fumes from the surrounding area could compromise the smoke sensor: kitchen, flue, garages (exhaust gas), stove, boiler, combustion radiators, etc.
• Near to heating appliances, windows, ventilation outlets, air conditioning units, fans or any other equipment that could produce air currents
• Near to a location which is warmer or cooler than the rest of the room (uninsulated walls, hatches, etc.)

Position the connected smoke sensor in accordance with the applicable building standards.

Ceiling installation:

• Install the Connected smoke sensor on the ceiling in the centre of the room and at least 30 cm from corners, walls, joists or other obstacles.

Sloping ceiling installation:

- Install the Connected smoke sensor between 30 cm and 60 cm vertically from the highest point on the ceiling.

Wall installation:

• Install the Connected smoke sensor on the wall, between 30 cm and 60 cm from the ceiling.

Installing the Connected smoke sensor

- In the case where a Connected smoke sensor is being used with the TaHoma ^ Box, it will be necessary to add it to TaHoma ^ before fitting it to the mounting bracket.

• Remove the mounting bracket from the connected smoke sensor by turning it anti-clockwise.
• Place the mounting bracket in the specified location and mark the location of the two mounting holes using a pencil.
• Use the 2 mounting screws and the plugs provided.
  • Firmly fit the mounting bracket.
• Affix the sensor on the mounting bracket by turning it clockwise until it locks.

Interconnection

When several Connected smoke sensors are present in the home, they will recognise each other automatically. When smoke is detected, the alert will spread through the whole house, with no prior special setting required.

Adding to the TaHoma®

On the TaHoma ^® interface, select the ☐ tab.

• Select the Configuration 📁 tab.
• Select the "10" tab, then select "Add".
• Follow the procedure shown.

Once the Connected smoke sensors are added to TaHoma ^® , go to the TaHoma ^® interface for more settings (notifications, email alerts, etc.). Refer to the TaHoma ^® manual for the settings.

You can also carry out a functional test of the product via TaHoma ^® , which is the simplest option.

Restoring the original configuration

Press the Connected smoke sensor test button until you hear 6 beeps.

The Connected smoke sensor is now reset to the factory configuration.
