Overview
5800 Series smoke, heat, or CO wireless life-safety transmitter — supervised fire/CO zone on compatible panels (5800CO, 5800COMBO, smoke SKUs).
Life-safety devices have stricter placement and testing requirements than burglary sensors. Follow NFPA/local code, use professional monitoring where required, and never substitute takeover modules for fire or CO hardwire.
