2.2.6 Wireless Reed Switches
This section shows you how to install wireless reed switches (WREEDI) for your system.
•
Reed switches are optional accessories, which must initially be learnt into the
Main Control Unit
.
However, if these detectors have previously been learnt in and require setting up, follow the
Set-up a
pre-learnt reed
procedure for each of these detectors that you have.
•
If the accessories are newly purchased (as in the case of a new Watchguard SMS 2010 System where
they are purchased as an option), you will need to learn them into the
Main Control Unit
. Follow the
Set-up and learn-in a reed
procedure for each of these detectors that you have.
a) Set-up a pre-learnt Reed Switch
Open the detector and remove the plastic insulation tabs from the battery, so
that the contacts are touching.
Figure 1.
Mount the detector in a suitable location using the screws provided.
(See installation example – Mounted on doorway Fig 1.)
- Mount the large sensor body on the stationary part of the door or window &
the smaller magnet on the moving part.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The gap between the mounting surface and screw
must not exceed 3.0mm (as shown below)
b) Set-up and learn-in a Reed Switch
Set the dipswitches to the zone you wish to learn the reed switch into.
In the picture on the left it is set to zone 1.
Open the detector and remove the plastic insulation tabs from the battery,
so that the contacts are touching.
Move the magnet away so that the detector triggers.
The Main Control Unit should beep a number of times to inform you what
zone the detector is learnt into.
Set the dipswitches back to OFF
Gap MUST NOT
exceed 3.0mm
