SAW Door/Window Sensors
To install Door/Window sensors:
1.
Remove the sensor cover by pressing the but-
ton on the narrow end.
2.
Remove the batteries to access the mounting
holes.
3.
Mount the sensor base with two #6 flathead
screws at the locations shown in Figure 3. If you
need to connect external switches, they should be
installed at this point. Use the procedure for con-
necting external switches.

4.
Remove the magnet from its base. Line up the
arrow on the magnet with the mark on the
sensor.
5.
Mount the magnet base no more than 3/8-inch
away from the sensor base. Replace the mag-
net cover.
6.
Re-install the batteries and circuit board; and
attach the sensor cover to the sensor base.
Note: When window or door construction does not al-
low the transmitter to be installed next to the magnet,
use an external switch to install the Door/Window Sen-
sor.
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 Sen-
sor in an adjacent but less visible place.
Materials and Tools Needed
•
Hermetically sealed external switches (sealed
reed switch) that supply a minimum 250-milli-
second open or closure on alarm (only nor-
mally closed circuits can be used on the
Simon panel)
•
Stranded 22-gauge wire
•
Small wire cutters
•
Sensor and magnet spacers (optional)
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 one inch of the magnet.
3.
Remove the cover from the Door/Window
Sensor.
4.
Pass the wires on the external switch through
the rear opening at the bottom of the Door/
Window Sensor.
5.
Attach each wire to one side of the screw ter-
minal (#31-255). Press the screw terminal over
the wire posts.
6.
Mount the sensor.
