UTC Fire & Security Americas Corporation, Inc. 900MHz Door/Window Sensor

Installation Manual

1,QVWDOODWLRQ,QVWUXFWLRQV*(,QWHUORJL['Product InformationThe sensor can be installed on doors, windows, and many other objects that open and close. The sensors transmit sig-nals to the Control Panel when a magnet mounted near the sensor is moved away from or closer to the sensor. The 900 MHz Long-Life Door/Window Sensor is equipped with a wall and cover tamper for additional security. Extend the battery life of the sensor by adding a second 3-volt lithium battery.Installation GuidelinesUse the following guidelines for installing Door/Window sen-sors.•Mount the sensor on the door frame and the magnet on the door. If the sensor is to be used on double doors, mount the sensor on the least-used door and the magnet on the other door.•If possible, locate sensors within 30 meters of the panel. While a transmitter may have a range of 150 meters or more out in the open, the environment at the installation site can have a significant effect on transmitter range. Sometimes a change in sensor location can help over-come adverse wireless conditions.•Make sure the alignment arrow on the magnet points to the alignment mark on the sensor.•Place sensors at least 12 cm above the floor to avoid damaging them.•Avoid mounting sensors in areas where they will be exposed to moisture or where the operating temperature (0° to 49° C) will be exceeded.Materials Needed•#6 flathead screws•Screwdriver or brad driverVerify Programming and Sensor-to-Panel RF CommunicationBefore mounting, verify the desired detector location pro-vides good RF communication to the panel.1. Put panel/receiver into sensor test mode.2. Take sensor to desired mounting location.3. Trip the sensor. The sensor transmits a test signal.4. Listen for siren beeps to determine appropriate response (refer to the panel/receiver Installation Instructions).5. Exit sensor test mode.To install Door/Window sensors:1. Remove the sensor cover by pressing a small screw-driver into the slot on the end of the sensor while lifting the cover.NoteIf you need to connect external switches, they should be installed at this point. See the procedure for connecting external switches in this docu-ment.2. Mount the sensor base with two #6 flathead screws at the locations shown in Figure 2. Figure 2. Mounting the Sensor and Magnet3. Remove the magnet from its base. Line up the arrow on the magnet with the mark on the narrow end or side of the sensor.4. Mount the magnet base no more than 1 cm away from the sensor base. Replace the magnet cover.5. Install the tamper switch as shown in Figure 36. Attach the sensor cover to the sensor baseFigure 3.

External Switch TerminalMaterials and Tools Needed•Hermetically sealed external switches (sealed reed switch) that supply a minimum 250 millisecond open on alarm (only normally closed circuits can be used on this sensor)•4.7 k ohm EOL resistor•Stranded 22-gauge wire•Small wire cuttersInstallation Guidelines1. 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 2.5 cm of the magnet.3. Install a 4.7 k ohm EOL resistor in series with the exter-nal switch at the switch location, not at the sensor.4. Remove the sensor cover.5. Pass the wires on the external switch through the rear opening at the bottom of the sensor.6. Attach each wire to one side of the screw terminal. Use no more than 3 meters of wire.7. Press the screw terminal over the wire posts.8. Mount the sensor.ProgrammingThe following steps describe the general guidelines for pro-gramming (learning) the sensor into panel memory. Refer to the specific panel installation instructions or reference man-ual for complete programming details.1. Set the panel to program mode.2. Proceed to the LEARN SENSORS menu.3. Trip the sensor tamper switch by removing the sensor cover.4. Select the appropriate sensor group and sensor number assignments.5. Exit program mode.Sensor TestThe sensor test verifies good communication between the detector and panel.1. Put panel/receiver into sensor test mode (see panel/receiver installation instructions).2. Open the door the sensor is protecting. The sensor transmits a test signal.3. Listen for siren beeps to determine appropriate response (refer to the panel/receiver Installation Instructions).4. Close panel cover.SpecificationsModel No.: 60-xxxFrequency: 900 MHzCompatibility: GE Interlogix 900 MHz AM Control Panels/ReceiversBattery Type: 3.0 V, 1300 mAh lithium (1 or 2)Recommended Battery: Duracell DL123A, Panasonic CR123A, Sanyo CR123ATypical Standby Current (µA): 3Estimated Battery Life (at 20° C): 8 years (one battery);15 years (two batteries)Supervisory Interval: 6.5 minutesTypical RF Output Power (mW): 250Operating Temperature: 0° to 49° C (32° to 120° F)Storage Temperature: -34° to 60° C (-30° to 140° F)Relative Humidity: 0 - 90% non-condensingDimensions (mm): 45 x 115 x 31 (L x W x H)Weight (g): 88NoticesThis device complies with FCC Rules Part 15.
