CO-8ZW Carbon Monoxide Detector
Introduction
CO-8 is a Carbon Monoxide Detector. It is capable of sending wireless signals to the Z-Wave
Gateway/Control Panel upon detection of Carbon Monoxide concentration.
The Carbon Monoxide Detector is a Z-Wave enabled device and is fully compatible with any Z-Wave
enabled network.
Z-Wave is a wireless communication protocol that uses a low-power RF radio. By taking advantage of
the Z-Wave mesh network, commands can be transmitted to their destination via intermediary “listening”
Z-Wave products.
Parts Identification
1. Dual Color LED indicator (Amber/Red)
The LED indicator lights up in the following conditions:
- Red LED flashes twice
The Carbon Monoxide Detector has successfully included
(learnt) into Z-Wave Gateway/Control Panel.
- Red continuous flash:
The Carbon Monoxide Detector is activated.
- Amber LED flashes every second:
The Carbon Monoxide Detector is in Alarm Silence mode.
2. Function Button
- Press the button once to send a supervision signal.
- Press the button once during alarm to silence the alarm.
- Press and hold the button 3 times within 1.5 seconds to send a
learn code.
- Press and hold the button for 10 seconds to factory reset.
3. Battery Compartment
The Carbon Monoxide Detector is powered by three
AA Alkaline 1.5V batteries.

z The Carbon Monoxide Detector will be activated according to the following table when CO
concentration is detected.
CO concentration
level
Time taken before
alarming
30 ppm None
50 ppm 60-90 minutes
100 ppm 10-40 minutes
300 ppm Under 3 minutes
z Once the CO concentration level exceeds the threshold and persists for the time length as
listed in the above table, the Carbon Monoxide Detector will transmit the signal to the Z-Wave
Gateway/Control Panel and raise alarm with its built-in siren.
z After the alarm has been activated, the Carbon Monoxide Detector will continue to send the
alarm signal every 2 minutes as long as CO concentration remains above 30 ppm.
z If the CO concentration drops below 30 ppm, the Carbon Monoxide Detector will stop alarming
and transmit a restore signal
