The installation of your Door Window Sensor has two major
steps: the Main Sensor and the Magnet. Your Door Window
Sensor will use wireless technology to talk to your Z-Wave
network once paired to your Z-Wave network.
Selecting where you'll place your Door/Window Sensor in your
home is just as important as the actual afxing it to the surface.
Whether it’s for security or intelligence purposes, your sensor:

4.
Should be affixed indoors and away from sources of
moisture.
Placed within 30 meters of another Z-Wave device that is
either a gateway or not powered by batteries.
The magnet and the main sensor must be less than 2cm
apart. Main sensor must be afxed to the door or window
and the magnet must be afxed to the frame. The magnet
and the main sensor must separate when the door or
window is opened.
Should not be mounted on a metal frame.
Quick start.

Afx your Sensor plates to a surface.
The Mounting plates can be affixed using screws or double-
sided tape.
If you are using screws, attach both mounting plates to the
respective surface using the two 20mm screws provided.
If you are using double-sided tape, wipe the two surfaces clean
of any oil or dust with a damp towel. When the surface has
completely dried, peel one side of the tape back and attach it
to the corresponding section on the rear side of the mounting
plates.

With your mounting plates prepared to hold each component of
your sensor, it’s time to add it to your Z-Wave network.
With your sensor added to your Z-Wave network, it's now time
to insert each main part of your sensor into the corresponding
sensor plate.
With your Door Window Sensor now working as a part of
your smart home, you’ll be able to congure it from your home
control software or phone application. Please refer to your
software’s user guide for precise instructions on configuring
Door Window Sensor to your needs.
