Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor (2GIG-SHKDW1-345) is 

designed for use on doors, windows, and other objects that open 

and close. It communicates with the control panel using the 345 MHz 

frequency. When the surface it is mounted on is struck with sufficient 

force, signals are sent to the control panel. Additionally, when the 

magnet (which is mounted near the sensor) moves away from or 

closer to the door contact’s sensor, signals are transmitted to the 

control panel. For added protection, it is also equipped with a cover 

and magnetic tamper detection.

Magnetic Tamper Detection

The 2GIG Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor is equipped with 

Magnetic Tamper Detection.  When enabled (see Enable / Disable 

Magnet Detection) the device can detect if a foreign magnet is brought 

within it’s detection range.  This will trigger a Tamper alert to the control 

panel indicating a possible attempt to bypass the device.
If this were to occur, the device will stop transmitting and a Loss of 

Supervision will be noted at the control panel.  To clear this event, the 

Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor will need to be re-calibrated (see 

Calibrating Magnet Detection).

Testing The Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor 

Before mounting the contact at the desired location, learn it into the 

control panel. Then, perform a walk test utilizing a shock event as the 

test transmission to verify that it can establish good Radio Frequency 

(RF) communications with the control panel. 

NOTE:

 To learn how to program and fully test the Shock/Door/Window 

Contact Sensor, see the control panel’s 

Installation and Programming 

Guide. 

For 2GIG 

panels using older  irmware, this sensor may be 

learned in as a D/W device. Newer panel 

f

irmwares will support 

shock detector equipment code type 1066

Mounting Guidelines

Use these guidelines when installing the sensor:

Mount Sensors within 100 ft (30 m) of the Control Panel.

Although the transmitter may have a range of over 500 ft (150m)

open air, the sensor location can have a significant effect on

range. In open/unobstructed situations, the transmitter range may

be greater. In adverse wireless conditions, changing the sensor

orientation may lead to improved range.

Mount Sensors at Least 4.7 in (12 cm) Above the Floor.

 Placing

sensors slightly above floor level helps to minimize possible sensor

damage.

Window Shock and Sliding Door/Window Installation:

 Mount

the Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor on the fixed pane window

1” from the frame for optimal performance. Place the sensor on the

moving section of the door/window and the magnet in a stationary

location. The included magnet must be within 2” of the sensor. If a

wider gap is required, up to 5”, use the optional DecoTrim Magnet

(p/n 2GIG-DECOTRIM).

Do Not Expose Sensors to Moisture or Extreme Temperature.

It is best to mount sensors in a dry location where the operating

temperature does not exceed 0° to 130°F (-18° to 54°C).

Keep Sensors and Magnets Away from Metal/Metallic

Surfaces.

 Keep sensors and magnets away from metal or metallic

surfaces (for example, foil). You should also avoid mounting

sensors in areas where there is a large quantity of metal or

electrical wiring (for example, near a furnace or in a utility room).

 

NOTE:

 Use on metal doors and windows with metal frames will

significantly impair the performance of this sensor.

Mounting The Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor

Use the figure below as a guideline when mounting the contact.

To mount the Shock/Door/Window Contact Sensor:
Remove the backing form the pre-applied double-sided tape on the 

bottom of the Sensor and place in the desired location. 

NOTE:

 When mounting on a glass window, place the device one 

inch from the top or bottom and side edge of the window.
