Note:
You can use any standard N.C.
type magnet switches. N.C. means
Normally Closed. This type of magnetic
switch is supplied with the sensors.
These switches are normally closed
when the door or window is closed, and
open when the magnet is moved away.
This type of magnetic switch is used so
that if the wire between the switch and
the Door/Window Sensor is cut, the
alarm trips (tamper proof).
If you want to connect more than one
magnetic switch to a sensor you must
connect them in series (not in parallel).
You cannot use N.O. (Normally Open)
magnetic switches with this sensor.
You can protect more than one door or
window from a single sensor by
installing additional magnetic switches.
Loop the switches in series from one
door or window to the next (using any
suitable wire).
DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR
For sliding windows, however, it is best
to mount the magnet and switch at the
bottom of the window with the arrows
facing each other. This way the magnets
will make a "clean break" from the switch
when the window is opened.
DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR
Testing Door/Window
Sensors
To test a Door/Window Sensor:
1. Set the
INSTALL/RUN
switch on the
console to
RUN2
(located under the
flip-up door).
2. Open the door or window. The light
on the sensor blinks, the console
chimes and the zone light for the
sensor lights.
If the light on the sensor does not blink
and the console doesn't chime, check
that the Door/Window Sensor magnet
and switch are correctly aligned with the
arrows facing each other.
Typical Door/Window Sensor
mounting methods
4. Press
TEST
again. The Console's
next unused zone indicator lights
and the Console beeps to indicate
it has accepted the sensor.
Note:
If you do not hear a tone,
remove the batteries from the
sensor and then hold down the
TEST
button for 3 seconds. Refit the
batteries and install the sensor again
as described above.
5. Set the switch on the front of the
Door/Window Sensor to
MIN
if you
are using it to protect a window or
MAX
if you are using it to protect a
door.
6. Place one of the enclosed numbered
stickers on the sensor to show its
zone number.
To set up additional sensors (up to 16)
repeat steps 1-6.
If you mount the magnetic switches on
metal doors or metal door frames you
should ensure that they are no more
then 3/16" apart. On wooden surfaces
they can be up to 3/8" apart.
Do not mount the magnet directly onto
a metal surface, use a wood or plastic
spacer.
DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR
The ideal location for the Door/Window
Sensor is high at the top of a window.
