GENERAL INFORMATION
The No. 5818 Recessed Transmitter is areed
switch magnetic contact sensor that provides
concealed protection foradoor or window. It is
intended for use only with alarm systems that
support 5800 series wireless devices.
The transmitter is powered by along-life lithium
battery that is easily replaceable when alow
battery is indicated by the control.
Programming the ID Number
Each 5818 has its own unique identification
code (serial number) permanently assigned dur-
ing manufacture.
The control unit is required to “learn” the
transmitter’s ID during installation of the alarm
system. The 5818 response should be learned
as ‘RFB (i.e. Supervised RF) Type (mandatory
for UL ir7sfa//ations).
Refer to the control unit’s installation instruc-
tions for further details.
PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS
Read all of this and the next section before in-
sta//ing the unit.
1. Select alocation for the transmitter
on the frame of the door (never on
the hinged edge) or window to be
protected.
●Do not use on metal frame doors or win-
dows.

The transmitter will require a7/W’ diame-
ter hole in the edge of the frame, at least
5“ deep, and its magnet will need a1/2”
diameter hole in the edge of the door or
window, at least 1-3/4- deep, BLJT
BEFORE DRILLING ANY HOLES, SEE
STEP 2BELOW AND MOUN77NGON THE
NEXT PAGE.
The preferred direction of mounting is
vertical, although the 5818 may be
mounted in any direction if satisfactory
reception of its transmissions is obtained.
Aphysical barrier (e.cj,, amolding stri~ on
the door or window f;ame) shou~ be”pre-
sent, to protect against defeat of the con-
tact from outside the premises.
2. Before drilling any holee, tape the
transmitter and magnet in their approximate
locations (with battery installed and unit to-
gether as described under BA77ERY
lNSTALLATIOIWREPIACEMENT below) and
conduct Go/No Go tests (see control’s in-
structions) to verify adequate signal
strength. Reorient or relocate the transmit-
ter if necessary.
.
.
Make sure that no more than a1/2’ gap
will be present between the faces of the
transmitter and magnet cases when they
are installed and set.
When installed, an alarm signal must be
obtained before aclear space of 2“ is
reached as the door or window is opened.

For use with Q.E.D. control panels only.

MOUNTING
1. Mark the selected location for the
transmitteron the frame of the door
or window.
2. Mark the Iocstion for the magnet on
the door or window, directfy opposite
the transmitter location.
Caution: Before drillina anv holes. make
3.
4.
sure that su;ces;ful Go;No Go
transmission/reception tests have
been conducted as called for in the
previous section.
Drill holes at the locations marked,
for the transmitter (7/8” diameter, at least 5“
deep) and magnet (1/2” diameter, at least
1-3/4 deep).
Insert the transmitter and maanet
cases into their respective h;les,
so that their ends are flush with the surface.
●DO NOT hammer in place with hard blows.
If necessary, tap gently with arubber
mallet or wood block.
●The transmitter case may be secured by
two screws via the holes in its mounting
flanges, or the flanges can be snapped
off by scoring around them first with a
sharp knife.
●if necessary, either case maybe secured
with asuitable adhesive.
Aclosure plug is supplied to cover an empty
transmitter hole if it becomes necessary to relo-
cate the transmitter.

Slide the transmitter PC board as-
sembly out of its case, taking care not
to bend the antenna during this step or later. -
Remove the old battery, if replacing it.
Observe correct pofarity and insert
the fresh battery into the battery holder
(+ and -polarity indications are inside). See
diagram.
Slide the PC board assembly back
into its case, battery end first (the reed
switch end must be toward the cap).
ReDtace the end cap. Line UDthe rxo-
je~ons on the cap with _theopenings at the
edge of the case, press the cap gently
against the PC board and turn the cap (via
its slot) slightly clockwise, thus locking it in
place.

plosion and burns. Do not recharge,
disassemble, heat above 2120F
(lt)O°C) or incinerate. Dispose of
used batteries promptly. Keep away
from children.

TO THE INSTALLER
Regular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the installer and frequent testing by the
user are vital to continuous satisfactory operation of any alarm system.
The installer should assume the responsibility of developing and offering aregular maintenance pro-
gram to the user, as well as acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the alarm
system and its component parts. Recommendations must be included for aspecific program of fre-
quent testing (at least weekly) to insure the system’s operation at all times.
REFER TO THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE RECEIVER/CONTROL
