Zone Hardware Descriptions
This section loosely describes the basic
operation of the assorted zones for the
system. For more specific data on the
individual sensors please reference the
guides included in the box of each particular
sensor.
DCTXP2
“ Magnet Reed Switch ”
Typical Position: Entry Doors and Hatches
Typical Zone Definition:
Delay or Instant
Power: 2 x
“ AAA ”
Description: This device detects open/close
states thru an on board magnet switch. The
fixed door contact must be located in a
position where the moving magnet comes
within
½ inch
of the magnet reed switch
when the door opens and closes. The
magnet reed switch is marked by the
triangle on the upper right side of the door
contact casing (Diagram 14 and 15).
DCTXP2
“ Universal Transmitter Input ”
Typical Position: Any location where
secondary sensing applications are needed.
Typical Zone Definition:
Delay or Instant
Power: 2 x
“ AAA ”
Description: This device can be installed in
another fashion utilizing is its universal
inputs. These two input terminals accept a
variety of different sensing applications. The
purpose of this option is for secondary
sensor inputs. The most common examples
of this application are the High Water, Low
Voltage Sensors, and recessed door magnet
sensors. The DCTXP2 Universal input
simply needs to see a open/close state
change. Open the cover of the DCTXP2
and reference Diagram 15.
Powering the Unit
Verify proper polarity and insert two
alkaline
“ AAA ” batteries. After inserting
batteries, a power up sequence will begin
(10-20 seconds) during which the door
contact will not
detect an open zone or tamper.
Low Battery
The door contact performs a battery test
every 12 hours. If the voltage is below 2.3V
after four consecutive battery tests (48 hrs.),
the red LED will flash at 5 second intervals
and the MG-DCTXP2 will transmit a low
battery signal
