External digital sensors 

This image shows a EDGE W-200 module with an external digital sensor. 

 

 

 

Figure 8 – EDGE W-200 module with external digital sensor (optional cable lengths) 

Depending on the design of the space to be monitored, you may be able to pass the sensor through an 
access port or opening. We recommend that you use the access port or opening if one is available. 

1.

 

When installation permits routing the sensor cabling through an access port or opening, connect 
the male end of the sensor firmly into the female end of the EDGE wireless module.  

2.

 

When installation requires passage through the door gasket seal, connect the male end of the 
sensor into the female end of the provided flat cable adaptor by joining the connectors (without 
unscrewing them). Then connect the other end of the flat cable into the end of the EDGE 
wireless module. 

 

 

 

External digital sensors do not connect to modules via the EDGE Smart Sensor 
solution. Therefore, calibration parameters must be managed using the 
EDGEConnect web application and EDGEConnect Mobile application for upload 
them to the module.
