How do you install these on a wall where you need the "X-Sense" to be level and in the right orientation? I don't want to drill my holes in the wrong place for that to happen. Thanks.
Not sure that if you take it off mounting bracket that it will turn off. another reviewer said that it auto turns on, but that once on cannot be turned off. and that it said this on the mounting bracket itself.
The TEST button is only to test the individual detector to make sure that the battery works and that there are no errors in the unit. If you want to see if they actually performs in a real life situation, then yes you have to recreate a real life situation by using smoke like I did.
@@ModernDIYProjects thank you so much I’m an electrician and I’m trying to get an inspection done and the home owner purchased these and I was afraid they wouldn’t work !! Thanks again 🙏
With mine, if you press and hold the button, within 5 or so seconds, they all sound. However, since you have to continue to hold the button, someone else will have to check the other detectors.
You have to hold the test button down and keep holding it down. They should eventually all start beeping. Have a helper go around and make sure they're all working.
i watched like 10 of these vids and your the only person smart enough to test that they actually link. ty

would be helpful to add how to pare them.
Do you have to actually use smoke for all to go off I’ve tried to hit the test button and only the one I tested goes off
