Overview

The RF3401E Point Transmitter is a magnetic and dry
contact wireless transmitter used for monitoring doors,
windows, or other dry contact devices.

This device is equipped with an internal reed contact for
use with an external magnet assembly and a cover/wall
tamper switch. The point transmitter can accept a dual
EOL resistor supervised dry contact input from an
external device.

Supervision is provided by transmitting a signal to the
receiver every 13 min. if there is no other activity. All
transmissions from the RF3401E send battery status
information.
