MOUNTING ACCESSORIES

MOUNTING THE DOOR/ WINDOW SENSOR TRANSMITTERS

You can install any combination of door/window sensor transmitters (Cat. No. 49-2585) and motion detectors (Cat. No. 49-2589), in up to 16 zones.

Follow these steps to mount each door/window sensor transmitter.

1.Set the DELAY switch on the door/ window sensor transmitter to MIN to protect a window or to MAX to protect a door.

TEST

Note: The MAX setting lets you arm a sensor transmitter with a 60-second exit delay and a 30- second entry delay (see “Instant/ Delay Mode”). When set to MIN, the sensor transmitter immedi- ately triggers the alarm if it is trig- gered after the exit delay.

2.Select a location for the door/win- dow sensor transmitter. We rec- ommend that you purchase enough sensor transmitters to protect the front and back door and any windows that are hidden from view or easily accessible (including basement windows).

3.The supplied sensor transmitter and magnet switch are connected. If the wire is too long, shorten it by cutting it to the length required, stripping the ends, and reconnect- ing it to the magnetic switch.

4.Remove the sensor transmitter’s batteries and attach it to the wall using the supplied screws or dou- ble-sided tape (such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 64-2361). Then replace the batteries (if you removed them) and close the bat- tery compartment door.

5.Align the arrows on the switch and magnet, then install the switch and magnet using the supplied screws or double-sided tape.

Notes:

Do not mount the magnet directly onto a metal surface. If necessary, use a wood or plas- tic spacer.
