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.

What This Device Does Well
Provides reliable supervised status at the panel and Total Connect 2.0 when installed, enrolled, and range-tested correctly.
Before You Service or Replace One
- Device age — smoke/CO sensors expire; replace per label date.
- Zone type — fire vs burglary programming differs; do not bypass without authority.
- FireFighter placement — acoustic path to standalone smoke alarms.
- Monitoring — central station fire test procedures for monitored accounts.
