Various embodiments include a carbon monoxide (CO) detection device and methods for operating a FDS or CO detection device to detect carbon monoxide and communicate information regarding CO detection events to a remote server via communication network. Various embodiments include receiving information from one or more CO sensors configured to detect CO, determining whether the information from the one or more CO sensors satisfies one or more threshold criteria indicative of fire event or CO detection, generating a CO warning message comprising a fire and/or CO alarm object in response to determining that the information received from the one or more CO sensors satisfy one or more threshold criteria indicative of CO detection, and sending the generated CO warning message to a remote server via a communication network.
