Transmission range may change due to the environment.

Please check if system functions properly on site. 

In the case of insufficient transmission range, use TR-20U 

(Repeater unit) to extend range.

When the door opens or when the transmitter unit is removed from the wall plate. 

When the distance of the magnet unit is away from the transmitter unit as shown.

Move the slide switch to 

the “INPUT TERMINAL” 

selection.

Remove the wiring 

knockout as shown.

* Note: this eliminates 

  the weatherproof rating 

  of the transmitter.

Connect any OPTEX’s battery operated 

detectors to the input terminals.

* The transmitter can be mounted in any 

OPTEX’s battery operated detectors 

backbox.

* For a complete list of applicable 

  detectors, visit www.optexamerica.com

When using OPTEX’s battery operated detector

Transmission signal will be sent when following conditions occur.

When the distance of the magnet exceeds 1.58 inches as shown.

When the distance of the magnet exceeds 2.36 inches as shown.

When the distance of the magnet exceeds 1.97 inches as shown.

    - Either TC-10U or receiving unit installed on a metal surface. 

    - Presence of a steel door, reinforced concrete or other metal obstructions between     

      TC-10U and receiving units.

    - Places near strong radio sources such as broadcast stations or substation.

7. Battery replacement

    Replace battery every 2 years. Use only CR123 3V lithium battery.

8. Cleaning

    Harsh cleaners such as paint removers or benzene may ruin the surface. Use a soft wet 

    cloth and mild soap to clean.

1. Outdoor Use

    The TC-10U Transmitter is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, being careful not
