GENERAL INFORMATION
The 5816AP is a Door/Window Transmitter
intended for use in systems that support 5800AP
wireless devices. It has its own unique serial
number permanently assigned during
manufacture. You must “enroll” the transmitter
serial number in the control prior to its usage in
the system. Refer to the control unit’s installation
instructions for further details.
Note:
During
programming of the control unit, 5816AP
transmitters shall be defined as the Input Type
“RF” (i.e., supervised RF).
The 5816AP has
two unique zones; the first is for
a wired closed circuit contact loop and the
second
for its built-in reed switch (used in conjunction with
a magnet as described below). Either or both
zones may be used.
A built-in cover tamper switch is activated when
the cover is removed.
INSTALLATION
Mounting
For proper orientation of the unit in relation to the
mounting plate, loop wiring, and/or magnet, read
all of this section before installing the unit.
The description that follows assumes that the unit
will be mounted as shown in the diagrams, with
the magnet (if used) located to the unit’s right. The
unit may, however, be installed in
any direction,
as long as the relationship of the unit to its
mounting plate and (if used) magnet is
maintained.
Although two holes are provided in the unit that
would permit mounting directly to a surface (holes
‘A’ in Diagram 2) it is recommended that the
mounting plate be used, for ease in removing the
unit for servicing should it become necessary.
Before mounting the transmitter permanently,
conduct Go/No Go tests (see control’s
instructions) to verify adequate signal strength
and reorient or relocate the transmitter if
necessary.
1.
Remove the transmitter’s cover
by inserting
the flat blade of a small screwdriver into the
pry-off slot at the end of the unit farthest from
the cover’s decorative ribs, and twisting the
blade.
2.
Disengage the supplied mounting plate
from the unit
by inserting the blade of a small
screwdriver into the locking tab release
window (see Diagram 2) and pressing it
against the locking tab (see Diagram 1) while
sliding the plate downward along the case
back.
3.
If a wired contact loop is to be used
with
concealed wiring, feed the wires through the
concealed wiring entry hole at one corner of
the mounting plate.
For
surface wiring entry, a thin “breakout”
area is provided in the case wall. Wiring can
be run through this “breakout” in the case
when attaching the case in step 5.
4.
Install the mounting plate,
with its case
holding posts pointing up (in this example), in
the location selected as described in the
control unit’s installation instructions. Use the
flat head screws supplied.
5.
Attach the case back to the mounting plate
by sliding the keyhole slots in the case back
down onto the mounting plate’s case holding
posts. The locking tab will click as the case
back locks in place.
6.
If the unit’s reed switch is to be used,
a No.
5799 Magnet (obtain separately) shall be
mounted adjacent to the alignment marks on
the case and the mounting plate’s alignment
strip (see Diagram 2).
