The D296 24 V Projected Beam Smoke Detector is
used in clear open structures such as arenas, atriums,
auditoriums, ballrooms, churches, factories, museums,
and warehouses. Each detector consists of a
transmitter, a receiver, and a remote indicator plate.
Because the transmitter and receiver typically mount
on the ceiling or high on walls or columns, they
provide an effective and unobtrusive means of
supervising public areas for fire protection.
The D306 Remote Indicator Plate, included with the
D296, provides a convenient means of verifying
detector status. Install it anywhere within 500 ft
(152 m) of the beam receiver (when using 18 AWG
[0.75 mm2] wire). The indicator plate has three LEDs
to indicate normal, trouble, and alarm conditions, and
test points to monitor the detector circuit
