We need more than two detectors in our home. Can multiple units be connected?

I connected 4 smoke alarms and 2 smoke/carbon monoxide alarms on four floors (basement, first floor, second floor bedrooms and attic bedroom) in my house. I think there's a requirement of fifty feet or less between each alarm, but check the specs. The alarms work well and they're a lot cheaper than hard wiring. My whole installation cost less than $300.

Yes, I have 4. Read and follow the instructions. If one goes off, they all sound.

I have 5 detectors and one co2 unit all connected to each other and it works fine. If you have more and a larger sized home I recommend the units with the voice warnings so you know which one had been activated. Use sticky notes or tape to ID each one when you do the set up

We have two seperate units/sets, so one base in each of two rooms and then in our bedroom we listen to two monitors. I'm not sure if you could program these the way you're asking, but I doubt if you could.

Go to www.pisector.comThen go to "alarms", pull down and click "sensor/detector". They have individual and multi-packs available. Good luck.

I think you'd need to buy one for each location. I have a second driveway system from a different manufacturer, and it chimes three times when tripped, as opposed to twice, as this unit does. This way, I can tell which location is alerting.

2 mounting screws and a small hole for the wire are needed. The mounting screw holes may align with holes from prior detectors

I believe it will function adequately as a stand-alone detector on battery. However, the wiring provides a means to integrate this unit with a whole-house, multi-zone (upstairs/downstairs or a moderately large floor plan) protection system.

I have ONE... but I believe two would work... upon startup each end 'scans' for the other end; I would think that if you 'brought up' one link and then the other they would form two non-interfering links. Also be aware that the range of these devices is low... a wall or even serious furniture can impede the signal completely, so it might be possible to just 'aim you way' to mutual non-interference. Hope this helps. BTW: I love mine... it make a super clear and high fidelity connection far better than the WiFi links I tried before buying this.

Yes, you can use multiple receivers. All will alert at the same time, if they are within the reception range of the doorbell button. I have found that the units don't work at the range that they advertise. You should probably try one receiver in the various locations to see if it works there before you purchase 4 receivers.

Call Universal Security Instruments customer service. My home is hardwired and I wanted to ensure all 5 detectors were connected to the household current and have the battery as a backup. Further, all of my detectors are interconnected so that if one goes off, they all go off. You may want to check out a different model if you are only interested in a battery operated detector.

Not sure about the question. My detector was returned as it was defective as it kept saying 'service required'. I do not recommend this device or the company.

The item I bought has the motion detector with it, now if you are wanting to add another one I don't know if you can do it with this one without purchasing another unit. Hope this helps!

Yes you can run more than one. The signal devices use a wide spectrum to validate wave lengths and will choose the one with the least amount of interference. I run mine while my son uses his at the same time.

I don't believe you will need to install more than one. I have my hub in a closed cabinet and it is controlling 3 IR devices and my PS3 (Bluetooth). It does come with 2 mini IR blasters if you have to string them in the cabinet. I did not have to even use them.

No. A sensor can only be linked to one thermostat. On the other hand, multiple sensors can be linked to one thermostat.

I am looking at the owner's manual and see nothing about two channels. And I don't see any reason you could not have two sets in the same house. I've learned the nursery unit is very sensitive and picks up the sound of TV in the family room. We leave TV in 24/7 - if you do the same I suggest you turn the volume down. We use the to monitor our new dog who sleeps very soundly in her crate in our kitchen. I worried she might be distressed during the night and we wouldn't hear her. So far we are very satisfied with this unit. The number one reason I purchased it was the comments that it didn't "hum" or make other noises that to me would be disturbing.

I don't see why not. I would put them on different time delays for a power failure so they both wouldn't try to call you at the same time. I assume you want two units for temperature monitoring.

only need to hook up one senser.If other is not plugged in it doesn't go off
