Wireless Recessed Door/Window Sensor
RF-RDWS-345-NN Installation Instructions
RF-RDWS-345-NN IM V1 08042020
Description
The Recessed Door/Window Sensor is a
supervised, wireless sensor that detects the
opening and closing of doors or windows. The
sensor and magnet are recessed mounted
into the frame.
When activated, the sensor transmits an open
(trip) or close (restore) signal to the panel.
These are the signals the unit provides:
supervisory and low battery (as needed). The
sensor is powered by (1) replaceable 3-VDC,
lithium battery.
Mounting the Sensor
•
Verify mounting location before drilling
any holes, the area must be able to
accept an 11/16” hole to a depth of 2
1/4” for the sensor and 5/8” for the
magnet
•
The holes must be drilled directly
across from each other to ensure the
magnet and sensor operate properly
•
Using an 11/16” drill bit drill the hole
for the magnet first, after drilling the
magnet hole mark the location directly
across for the sensor hole.
•
The magnet and sensor are slightly
larger than the drilled hole to ensure a
snug fit, a small amount of routing the
hole may be required
•
Push both magnet and sensor into
mounting holes
Programming
The following steps describe the general
guidelines for programming the sensor into
panel memory. Refer to the specific panel’s
documentation for complete programming
details.
1. Set the panel to the program mode.
2. Proceed to the SENSORS menu.
3. Select the appropriate sensor group and
sensor number assignments.
4. When prompted by the panel to trip the
sensor for learning:
•
Remove the cap from the sensor by
using a screwdriver and twisting the
cap
•
Pull the battery tab out to power the
sensor
•
After the battery tab is pulled the
sensor will transmit “tampers” for the
first fives activations, the sensor
should be enrolled during one of these
first five trips. If the device is tripped
too many times before enrollment the
battery must be removed and re-
installed to activate the tamper trips
again.
5. Exit program mode.
Testing the Sensor
1. Set the panel to the sensor test mode.
2. 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.
Note:
If a low battery alarm occurs, replace
the battery within 7 days.
CAUTION
: Battery may explode if mistreated.
Do not recharge, disassemble or dispose of in
fire.
Battery Replacement
•
Remove the sensor cap and
carefully pull out the circuit board.
•
Push out the old battery towards the
antennas and replace with a new
battery.
•
Carefully slide board back into
housing, note the slot for alignment.
•
Replace the cap and activate the
device at least five times.
