Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the GDC-0001 should be performed by a qualified security technician to ensure it aligns with your Ricochet wireless network.

Setup Steps:

  1. Mount the detector in a corner or on a flat wall at the recommended installation height for optimal coverage.
  2. Pair the device with your Texecom Ricochet-enabled control panel via the engineer menu.
