Smoke Detectors and C-Bus

Would like to know the easiest way to enable a smoke detctor output to input to the C-Bus system to enable switching on lights etc
Thanks

 

Aux Module or bus couplers would do the trick.

I suppose it depends on what smoke sensors you have and what kind of output you can get from them.

 

The smoke detectors I use are interlinked and it is possible to fit one of the detector bases with a relay module. Add a bus coupler controlled by the voltage free contacts within the detector base, and you can do what you wish.

 

Just about any snoke detector that has interlinking capabilities will have a relay module that will allow interfacing to an alarm system or C-bus via aux input module or bus coupler.

Clipsal make some detectors and an isolation unit module (756) that actually has a C-bus logo on the front of it. I currently use these, although my 756 in the shed has crapped itself after four years so I am not happy with that.

Thanks for replies

Thanks for all info-thought I would have to use Bus Coupler or some similar input device from smoke detectors-will go that way
Thanks Again all
