Detection Device System and Device Thereof
First Claim
1. A detection device comprising:
- a housing;
a first detector device configured to detect at least one smoke particle;
a second detector device configured to detect at least one gas particle, wherein said first detector device and said second detector device are substantially enclosed in said housing;
an audible enunciator configured to emit a first audible sound when said first detector device detects at least one smoke particle, and a second audible sound when said second detector device detects at least one gas particle;
a test button, wherein said audible enunciator emits a third audible sound when said detection device is operating improperly and said test button is actuated; and
a receptacle configured to receive a conductor that communicatively connects the detection device with a second detection device, wherein signals corresponding to said first and second audible sounds are communicated to said second detector, while a signal corresponding to said third audible sound is not communicated to said second detector.

Abstract
A detection device and detection device system are provided, wherein the detection device includes a housing, a first detector device and a second detector device. The first detector device is configured to detect at least one smoke particle. A second detector device configured to detect at least one gas particle, wherein the first detector device and the second detector device are substantially enclosed in the housing. The detection device further includes an audible enunciator configured to emit an audible noise when at least one of the first and second detector devices detect at least one smoke and gas particle, and a test button, wherein the audible enunciator emits an audible sound when the detection device is operating improperly and the test button is activated.
