Contact Operation

The MC-31 can be configured to transmit a message when the contact 
opens, closes, or both (default). See 

Operating Mode

 on 

page 8

. The 

current contact status can also be transmitted as a heartbeat message. See 

Heartbeat Messaging

 on 

page 9

 to select the interval.

Link to a Controller

The target controllers must be installed, powered, and within range of the 
MC-31. Repeating the linking process can be used to unlink the device.

1. Press the 

[Learn]

 button on the controller to activate Link mode. If 

necessary, refer to the related product documentation.

2. Press the 

[Teach]

 button on the sensor once to send a message. The 

blue LED blinks to confirm a successful transmission. 

3. Deactivate Link mode on the controller.

Battery Power

A CR2032 battery is included with the MC-31. The battery may be factory 
installed or packed separately according to shipping regulations. Insert the 
battery if required or remove the protective plastic tab before installing. 

Note:

If installed for an entry door application, link the sensor 
while it is in the closed position. If installed as a window 
sensor, link the sensor in the open position.

Note:

A red LED indicates when the battery is low (single blink 
every 15 seconds). Replace immediately to ensure 
messages are transmitted. When the battery is critically 
low the red LED double-blinks every 15 seconds.
