ELK-319DG All Weather Door & Gate Sensor

Description

The ELK-319DG is a Supervised, Wireless Sensor uniquely 

designed for outdoor use on swing gates or doors.  The sensor 

and magnet can be mounted using screws (included) or pipe 

strap style clamps or plastic wire ties.

When activated the sensor transmits an open (trip) or close 

(restore) signal to the panel. Additionally transmitted signals 

include: tamper, hourly supervisory, and low battery (as 

needed). The sensor is powered by two (2) replaceable 3VDC, 

lithium coin-cell batteries.

This sensor is compatible with Elk’s 319MHz Receivers/Panels 

as well as many other panels that operate on the 319.5MHz 

Frequency and adhere to the ITI/Interlogix protocol.

Programming (Enrollment)

The following is a general guideline for programming (enrolling) 

a sensor into the receiver or panel. For more extensive 

instructions please refer to the receiver or panel instructions. 
1.  Place panel into the Program mode. 
2.  Proceed to the WIRELESS SETUP menu. 
3.  Select the appropriate zone/sensor location number. 
4.  When prompted by the panel to trip the sensor for learning: 
•  Remove sensor cover and remove battery pull tabs to power 

up the sensor.  Press and release the tamper plunger.

•  The panel should acknowledge the sensor has been learned 

by keypad display and/or audio alert (depending on the 

panel).  If enrollment fails try pressing and releasing the 

tamper plunger a second time.  In some cases it may be 

necessary to remove and reinstall the batteries.

5.  Repeat the above process for any additional wireless 

sensors.  Proceed to the zone programming to assign each 

sensor’s zone definition.  

6.  Exit programming mode when finished.

Installation Guidelines and Mounting

•  Sensor should be temporarily attached at the desired 

location and successfully tested with the panel/receiver 

prior to drilling any holes or permanently mounting.

•  Mounting  this  sensor  on  metal  can  negatively  affect  the 

transmitting range and magnet gap performance.  

•  Install the sensor within 100 ft. of the receiver or panel.

Use long screws (provided) 

to attach the Magnet.

•  Mount the sensor on the non-moving post or frame surface 

and the magnet on the actual moving gate or door.  If one 

sensor is to be used for a double acting gate/door then 

mount the sensor on the least used gate/door.  

•  Mount at least 5 inches above the floor to avoid damage.

•  Align the magnet directly across from the top right edge of 

the sensor.

 

NOTE: The gap between the sensor and magnet should 

not exceed a maximum of 1”.

Mounting with Screws

Remove the sensor cover.  Use long screws (provided) to attach 

the sensor and the short screw (provided) to secure the cover.

Mounting with Pipe Straps or Plastic Ties

The Sensor and Magnet are also designed for mounting using 

adjustable straps or black plastic ties. (purchase separately)  

Use two (2) adjustable pipe straps or ties to 

mount the sensor as shown.

Note: Make sure straps are tight to pre-

vent the sensor from sliding away from 

the magnet.
