Connecting External Switches
External switches used with Door/Window Sensors allow
you to protect doors and windows when there is inadequate
room for directly mounting the sensor or when you want to
locate the Door/Window Sensor in an adjacent but less visi-
ble place.
Figure 4. External Switch Terminal
Materials and Tools Needed
•
Hermetically sealed external switches (sealed reed
switch) that supply a minimum 250 millisecond open on
alarm (only normally closed circuits can be used on this
sensor)
•
4.7 k ohm EOL resistor
•
Stranded 22-gauge wire
•
Small wire cutters
Installation Guidelines
1. Install the magnet on the opening edge of the door or
movable part of a window.
2. Position the switch on the door or window frame within
2.5 cm of the magnet.
3. Install a 4.7 k ohm EOL resistor in series with the exter-
nal switch at the switch location, not at the sensor.
4. Remove the sensor cover.
5. Pass the wires on the external switch through the rear
opening at the bottom of the sensor.
6. Attach each wire to one side of the screw terminal. Use
no more than 3 meters of wire.
7. Press the screw terminal over the wire posts.
8. Mount the sensor.
Programming
The following steps describe the general guidelines for pro-
gramming (learning) the sensor into panel memory. Refer to
the specific panel installation instructions or reference man-
ual for complete programming details.
1. Set the panel to program mode.
2. Proceed to the LEARN SENSORS menu.
3. Trip the sensor tamper switch by removing the sensor
cover.
4. Select the appropriate sensor group and sensor number
assignments.
5. Exit program mode.
Sensor Test
The sensor test verifies good communication between the
detector and panel.
1. Put panel/receiver into sensor test mode (see panel/
receiver installation instructions).
2. Open the door the sensor is protecting. The sensor
transmits a test signal.
3. Listen for siren beeps to determine appropriate response
(refer to the panel/receiver
Installation Instructions
).
4. Close panel cover.
