The following are the steps and processes to install the MGLS.
2.1.
Required Items
Ensure you have the following:
Flat screwdriver to open the smart magnetic sensor
Double-sided adhesive mounting-tape - provided
One 3 V CR123A lithium battery
NOTE:
To comply with the UL certification standards, use GP International
Limited batteries.
2.2.
Determining the Best Location
Consider the following when selecting a mounting position for the MGLS:
A flat window or door surface
A surface that is clean, dry, and smooth
Within 700 m (2296 ft.) of the Control Panel (CP) (open air nominal)
Avoid installation on the top of a door or door frame due to the dust accumulation in that
area.
Attach the smart magnetic sensor to the fixed frame of the window or door.
Attach the permanent magnet to the door.
Mount the MGLS as high as possible, yet still accessible for occasional maintenance.
