General Information and Component Identification
The Honeywell 5816OD Wireless Outdoor Sensor (referred to as
the Sensor) brings the convenience of wireless technology to the
outdoors. The major features are:
Weatherized security protection for an outdoor environment.
Great for sheds, barns, garages, pool gates, fences, and rural
mailbox (notifications).
Versatile mounting options on flat and round materials.
Cover and rear tamper detection.
Can be painted to coordinate with mounting surface.
Operating temp: – 40 to +50° C (– 40 to +122° F) at
RH of 100% (rain, snow).
Maximum Magnet Gap:
Wood: 1.75 inches
Metal: 1.25 inches

Installing / Replacing the Batteries
IMPORTANT:
Always change both batteries. Do not mix weak batteries with
new batteries.
Use two (2) lithium 1.5VDC AA cells. (For best life, use
Eveready's Energizer Ultimate LITHIUM AA batteries,
Honeywell part number 462)
OBSERVE BATTERY POLARITY.
Battery Replacement:
1. Remove cover screw and swing Sensor to remove from Sensor
Mounting Plate.
2. Use screwdriver in any pivot point and pry Sealing Cover off.
Replace batteries.
3. Orient the Sealing Cover so the screw hole lines up with the
screw hole in the sensor cover, and press to close.
4. Engage Sensor tabs into mating holes in Sensor Mounting
Plate and swing closed. Secure with cover screw.

Mounting Guidelines
This device is intended for vertical surfaces (to be mounted at a
sufficient height) where snow, ice and water buildup will not
interfere with its operation.
Mount the Magnet on the magnet sensing side of the Sensor as
identified by the side ribs on the Sensor.
Mount the Sensor on a stationary surface, and mount the
Magnet on the moveable surface.
When used on wooden sheds and barns, mount the sensor and
magnet on the inside of the structure.
Use the Magnet Spacer when mounting on metal surfaces; or
if needed to achieve proper alignment with the Sensor.
Use screws suitable for the material being fastened to.

Curved Surfaces:
Suggested mounting hardware such as the strap ties and cable
ties are not supplied.
Mount using self locking stainless steel strap ties.

Alternately you can use extra heavy duty Nylon 6/6 UV and
Temperature Rated cable ties
(0.5 inch wide).
If desired you may use screws in addition to the ties.

ROUTING EXTERNAL WIRING – Optional for use with external
closed contact switches, such as the Honeywell N7945-2GY:
Note: Use minimum of 22AWG jacketed cable. The contact
switch must be a Form C (SPDT) type.
UL – The wired contact must be less than 3 feet from the
transmitter.
1. Strip cable jacket back 4-inches to allow enough slack to
remove Sealing Cover when changing batteries.
2. Pass cable through the access hole in Sensor Mounting Plate.
Use cable notch on mounting plate to pass jacketed portion of
cable through. Then attach the Sensor Mounting Plate.
3. Route cable to the external contact switch and fasten at
intervals to secure cable.
4. Remove the Sealing Cover and thread wires through the
rubber wire seal. If installed, REMOVE ANY BATTERIES.
5. Connect wires to terminal block in battery chamber, then
INSTALL the batteries.
6. Replace the Sealing Cover. (Note, orient the cover so the screw
hole lines up with the screw hole in the sensor cover, and press
to close.)
7. Engage Sensor tabs into Sensor Mounting Plate mating holes
and swing closed. Secure with cover screw.

PAINTING THE SENSOR:
The sensor and magnet may be painted to coordinate its color with the mounting surface. Use
only paints that are made for plastic and follow the manufacturer’s direction for preparing the
plastic and applying the paint. Observe the required drying and curing times.
DO NOT USE METALLIC PAINT COLORS.
Recommended Paints:
Krylon® "Fusion for Plastic"
Rust-Oleum® "Plastic"
Dupli-Color® "Vinyl & Fabric Coating"
Programming the Control Panel
You must program the transmitter's serial number, input type (RF Supervised), response type, and loop # in the control panel. (Either or both
loops may be used. Loop # 2 is for the magnet sensing, and Loop # 1 is for the external contact switch.) Refer to the control panel’s instructions
for further details. Note: The transmitter's serial number may be found on the carton, and in the Battery Chamber.
