5800MICRA Wireless Recessed Transmitter

Installation Instructions

GENERAL INFORMATION

The 5800MICRA wireless recessed transmitter is a reed switch magnetic contact transmitter that allows the transmitter to be concealed from view when installed in a window. It is intended for use only with alarm systems that support 5800 series devices. The transmitter is powered by a long-life lithium battery that is easily replaceable when a low battery is indicated by the control panel.

Each 5800MICRA has its own unique identification code (serial number) permanently assigned during manufacturing.

The control panel is required to "enroll" the transmitter's ID during installation of the alarm system. The zones input type should be enrolled as "RF" (i.e. Supervised RF) Type (mandatory for all UL installations).

Refer to the control panel's installation instructions for further details.

PRELIMINARY CONSlDERATlONS

Measure 3" down from the inside top corner of the mainframe and mark the center point for the hole the 5800MICRA transmitter will be inserted into.

Place a corresponding mark also on the sash insert that will be used in this position.

1. Select a location for the transmitter on the frame of the window.

Do not use on metal frame doors or windows.

5800MICRA TRANSMITTER

The 5800MICRA transmitter will require a 3/4" diameter hole (using

a 3/4" Forstner bit) drilled into the edge of the window frame no more

than 11/32" deep. Its accompanying magnet will need a 3/4" diameter

hole drilled in the side of the window sash, no more than 11/32" deep.

BEFORE DRlLLlNG ANY HOLES, SEE ITEM 2 BELOW AND MOUNTlNG

SECTION ON PAGE 2.

FOR VINYL SLIDING WINDOWS the preferred direction of mounting is vertical.

FOR HUNG WINDOWS the 5800MICRA must be mounted horizontally in the

window sill with the accompanying magnet mounted in the lower window sash.

2 Place and Set

Insert the 5800MICRA's antenna into the extrusion hollow then press the transmitter body into the cored opening. Insure that the antenna moves freely in the window channel during installation.

NOTE: It is essential to the systems operation that the positioning of the iON icon on the transmitter point in the same direction as its corresponding sash magnet.

(see Step 1 - Measure & Drill in Figure 1)

2. Before drilling any holes, tape the transmitter and magnet in their

approximate locations (with battery installed and unit together as

described under BATTERY INSTALLATION / REPLACEMENT (see Page 2)

and conduct Go/No Go tests (see control's instructions) to verify

adequate signal strength. Reorient or relocate the transmitter if necessary.

Make sure that no more than a 1/2" gap will be present between the faces

of the transmitter and magnet cases when they are installed and set. Also make

sure the 'iON' graphic on the transmitter and magnet are aligned with each

other as per Step 3 - Sash Magnet Placement in Figure 1.

When installed, an alarm signal must be obtained before a clear space of 2"

is reached as the window is opened.

3 Sash Magnet

Placement

Using a 3/4" Forstner Drill Bit, drill into the window sash to a depth of 11/32" only.

Sash Magnet

Press the 5800MICRA transmitter's corresponding magnet into the cavity now drilled into the sash, making sure to position the iON icons to point in the same direction. NOTE: This point is essential to the systems proper operation.
