2GIG-TILT1-345
F/G TILT SENSOR, 345MHZ
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The Tilt sensor (2GIG-TILT1-345) is designed for use where the lt status needs to
be monitored. A typical applica on would be on a garage door. Other uses might
include, mailbox lid, pet doors, and hinged crawl space doors. This lt sensor
communicates with the control panel using the 345 MHz frequency. Once the
sensor is lted to 45 degrees, the sensor will transmit to the panel. The sensor
will also send a restore signal when sensor is returned to less than 45 degrees.
The 2GIG-TILT1-345 is equipped with a cover tamper switch and low ba ery
monitoring. If the case of the 2GIG-TILT1-345 is removed for any reason, the
radio transmi er will send a tamper alert. Should the ba ery voltage drop below
a prescribed level, the sensor will send a low ba ery report indica ng that the
ba ery requires replacing. The 2GIG-TILT-345 is compa ble with GC2
fi
rmware
1.14 and higher.
