Initial Smoke/CO Listener Test Failing with Kidde i4618AC Smoke Detector
contact-sensor
troubleshooting

Hi - I am installing a Ring Smoke/CO Listener and cannot get past the initial testing step. The detector is a UL listed Kidde i4618AC wired smoke detector which is emitting 3 beeps and nothing else, voice or otherwise, so it *seems* to be a T3 alarm. I cannot find a compatibility list, so I'm wondering whether any other users (or Ring employee monitoring the forum) knows whether that particular Kidde model is compatible. Thanks.

    Just in case someone else comes along with the same problem, I ended up switching out the i4618AC next to the listener for a "Kidde Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detector, Hardwired Interconnect Combination Smoke & CO Alarm with Battery Backup & Voice Alert, model KN-COSM-IBA" (that's a mouthful!) and it works perfectly with the Listener. It even uses the same mounting ring and wire harness.
