Installation Instructions

  

1.

 

INTRODUCTION  

The MCT-320 is a fully supervised, wireless magnetic contact sensor, 

for use with iControl control panels. The sensor includes a built-in 

reed switch (that opens upon removal of a magnet placed near it).  

The MCT-320 tamper switch is activated when the cover is removed or 

when the detector is removed from the wall. 
A periodic supervision message is transmitted automatically. The target 

receiver is thus informed, at regular intervals, of the unit’s active participation 

in the system. 
Operating power is obtained from an on-board 3 V Lithium battery. When 

the battery voltage is low, a “low battery” message is sent to the receiver.
