Set the switch on the front of the
Door/Window Sensor to MIN if
you are using it to protect a win-
dow or to MAX if you are using it
to protect a door.
Set the switch inside the Door/
Window Sensor’s battery compart-
ment to the right - N.C. (Normally
Closed). The magnetic switch sup-
plied with the sensor is the N.C.
type.
The, sensor and magnetic switch
supplied are already connected to-
gether. If you need a longer wire,
use any suitable wire to connect the
magnetic switch to the Door/
Window Sensor’s two screw termi-
nals.
Select a location for the Door/
Window Sensor. We recommend
that you purchase enough sensors
to protect the front and back door
and any windows that are obscured
from view or easily accessible (in-
cluding basement windows).
Mount the Door/Window Sensor
and the magnetic switch in the in-
tended location using the supplied
screws or double sided tape.
Install the magnet using the sup-
plied screws or double sided tape.
Note: If you mount the magnetic
switches on metal doors or frames
you should ensure that they are no
more than 3/16" apart. On wooden
surfaces they can be up to 3/8”
apart.
Do not mount the magnet directly onto
a metal surface, use a wood or plastic
spacer.
7. Check for proper alignment by
opening the door or window. The
light on the sensor turns on each
time you open the door or win&w.
Repeat Steps 1 to 7 for any additional
sensors you wish to install (up to 16).
