Installation
Open/Close Sensor Hardware
Reed Switch
Used by Open/Close Sensor to detect whether the included
magnet is within ½” of the main case:
•
Reed switch is in the closed state when the magnet is
inside ½”
•
Reed switch is in the opened state when the magnet is
further than ½”
Jumper
When the jumper is installed (default), Open/Close Sensor will
send an INSTEON ON command when it opens and an OFF
command when it closes. When the jumper is uninstalled (as in
Multi-Scene Mode), Open/Close Sensor will activate scene 1
when it opens and activate scene 2 when it closes.
NOTE: When installing or uninstalling the jumper, the battery will
need to be removed and then reinstalled for the new jumper
setting to take effect.
Set Button
Used to:
•
Link to other INSTEON devices (responders)
•
Control linked responders (scene 1): tap to toggle
between on and off
External Sensor Terminals
When using an external sensor, Open/Close Sensor is in the closed state when
either
the external
sensor terminals or the reed switch are closed. In other words, Open/Close Sensor opens when
both
the
external sensor terminals and reed switch are open. See
for more
information.
status LED
Indicates:
•
Change in state (opens or closes)
•
Open/Close Sensor is in linking/unlinking Mode (status LED is blinking)
Arrows
Arrows indicate the location of the reed switch inside the main case, so the magnet should be installed as
close as to them as possible.
Magnet
Included magnet is installed on opposing plane than Open/Close Sensor main case. It should be less
than ½” away from the main case when the door/window, etc. is closed and further than ½” when open.
