Description
The RF-SHK-345 is a wireless window sensor
designed for dual protection; open and close
and to detect vibrations made by an intruder
attempting to break a window. The sensor
contains a piezo detection device that detects
vibrations when mounted on a window frame.
The detection circuit can be adjusted for
sensitivity during installation to ensure
maximum coverage. The device also has a
built-in reed switch to monitor the open and
close of the door or window.
When activated, the sensor transmits a signal
to the control panel. These are the signals the
unit provides: supervisory, tamper and low
battery (as needed). The sensor is powered
by (2) replaceable 3-VDC, lithium coin-cell
batteries.
Installation Guidelines
• Mounting the sensor on metal can affect the
transmitting range performance. Therefore,
test the sensor from the desired location
using the installer sensor test, before
permanently mounting it.
• Mount the sensor within 100 ft. of the panel.
• Mount the sensor on the frame of the door
or window.
•
The sensors can be mounted to either wood
or metallic surfaces.
Testing and Adjusting the Sensor
Take the sensor and magnet to the desired
mounting location, making sure to line up the
magnet alignment marks with each other. Trip
the sensor by pulling the magnet away from
the sensor.
Monitor the system after tripping the sensor.
Refer to the specific panel documentation for
interpretation of the results to ensure desired
signal strength is achieved.
Mounting the Sensor
Mount the sensor using the supplied adhesive
mounting pads or small wood screws (not
included).
Note:
The gap between the sensor and
magnet should not exceed a maximum of
3/8”.
Adhesive Mounting Pads
1. Before applying mounting pads, ensure
that the desired location is a smooth, clean
and dry surface.
Note:
When applying, evenly apply pressure
to ensure a good surface contact.
2. Apply mounting pads to the bottom of the
sensor and the magnet. Mount the sensor
and magnet at the desired locations, ensuring
the alignment marks line up with each other.
After mounting, test the sensor using the
procedure in the section “Testing and
Adjusting the Sensor”.
