tee becomes invalid.
Dear customer, the following safety instructions are intended to protect
you as well as the device. Please take time to read through the following
points:
a) General information
• If you are not sure how to assemble, connect and install the device or if
you have doubts about its mode of operation, contact a skilled technician.
• For safety and licensing (CE) reasons any unauthorised alterations to and/
or modification of the product are not permitted.

6
• The product is only approved for installation and operation in dry and closed
indoor rooms. Make sure that the product does not get damp or wet.
• This product is not a toy and should be kept out of the reach of children.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around. This may become a danger-
ous plaything in the hands of children.
• Handle the product with care; knocks, blows or even a fall from a low height
can damage it.
b) Batteries and rechargeable batteries
• Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children.
• When inserting the batteries/rechargeable batteries make sure that the polarity
is correct.
• Do not leave batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around as they could
be swallowed by children or pets. In such case seek immediate medical care.
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries may cause acid burns,
if they come into contact with skin. Therefore, please make sure you use
suitable protective gloves.
• Make sure that batteries/rechargeable batteries are not short-circuited or
thrown into a fire. They might explode!
• Never take batteries/rechargeable batteries apart!
• Conventional batteries must not be recharged. They might explode!
• If the device is not used for a longer period of time (for example, when stored),
remove the inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries to prevent them from
leaking and causing damage.
It is possible to operate the door/window detector with recharge-
able batteries. However, due to the lower voltage (rechargeable
battery= 1.2V, battery = 1.5V) and the lower capacity, the period
of operation and the range are reduced. In some instances powering
with rechargeable batteries may not be possible when the door/
window detector sends a ‘battery empty’ message to the alarm
base station even when the batteries are full, therefore immedi-
ately generating a disturbance message.
Therefore, to ensure safe operation, only use high-quality alkaline
batteries.

6. Features and functions
• Monitoring of doors and windows via the supplied magnets (can be mounted
to the left or to the right of the detector)
• Can be mounted to a door or window, for example
• Monitoring of objects that need to be protected against unauthorised removal
(pictures, works of art and so on)
• Option to connect additional external NC contacts (NC = normally closed)
and NO contacts (NO = normally open)
• The connection for NO contacts is always activated, irrespective as to whether
the alarm base station is set to ‘disarmed’, ‘internally armed’ or ‘externally
armed’.
This is ideal, when NO model glass break sensors are used. If the
glass breaks an alarm is immediately set off by the alarm base
station!
• Battery operation: 2 x AAA batteries
(additionally 1 x micro (AAA) and 3 x button cells (LR44) when NO contacts
are connected, for example for NO model glass break sensors)
• Sabotage contact
• Test function

7. Installation
a) Installation notes
• Magnetic sensors (reed switch) are located inside the ‘FAZ 3000-TF-2’ door/
window detector on the left and on the right side.
This means that you can mount the supplied magnet either on the left or
on the right side.
A two-sided installation of 2 magnets (one on the left and one on
the right of the door/window detector) is not possible!
Figure 1
max. 25 mm max. 25 mm
20 mm
20 mm

• Make absolutely sure that the lower edge of the magnet is 20mm away from
the lower edge of the door/window detector.
Mounting the magnet higher or lower reduces the magnetic range; the magnet
must be installed closer to the door/window detector!
The horizontal distance between the magnet and the door/window detector
should not exceed 25mm. The ideal distance is approx. 10-15mm.
Tip:
Before using screws to mount the device, you should first check
that it is working properly so as to avoid drilling any unattractive
holes in the ‘wrong’ location.
• The
internal magnet contact (the magnet sensor/reed switch in the door/
window detector) is normally switched off. It is activated when closed
for the first time via a magnet, and hereafter signals its state to the
alarm base station.
Due to this factory default setting, the door/window detector may
also be operated exclusively with external magnet sensors (with-
out the supplied magnets).
A deactivation of the internal magnet contact (if activated) is only possible
by briefly removing the batteries (replacing the batteries) or by deleting and
re-registering the sensor.
• In addition to the internal magnet sensor you can attach several external
sensors to the door/window detector, such as when you have a wide window
bank with several windows/doors.
This refers only to NC contacts that must use the ‘KL2’ connection, see
page 12, figure 5.
When connecting several
external NC contacts, they
must be connected in series
(figure 2).
Do not connect terminating
resistors!
Figure 2
NC-Kontakte

NC contacts

10
• NO contacts on the door/window detector may also be used to complete
the monitoring, (use connection ‘KL1’, see page 12, figure 5).
They must have a potential-free/currentless switching output.
When connecting several NO con-
tacts, they must be connected in
parallel (figure 3).
Do not connect terminating resis-
tors here either!
Figure 3
Please note:
The ‘KL1’ connection for NO contacts is always active, irrespec-
tive as to whether ‘disarmed’, ‘internally armed’ or ‘externally armed’
is set. This is ideal, if glass break sensors with NO contacts are
used. An alarm is set off immediately when a pane of glass is
smashed!
• The maximum attainable wiring length per alarm loop greatly depends on the
cable used and the transfer resistance of the magnet and/or glass break
sensors. Under ideal circumstances 100m or more is possible.
• When installing the door/window detector and magnet on metal doors or windows
the wireless range may be reduced.
• As a rule, the magnet is mounted on the moving part (window, door panel,
picture, for example) and the door/window detector ‘FAZ-TF’ is attached to
the static part (for example, window frame, door frame or wall). Please refer
to figure 1 on page 8 for the correct distance between magnet to door/window
detector.
• The magnet and the ‘FAZ-TF’ door/window detector may be attached with
commonly available double-sided tape.
You can use suitable screws to mount both components to the
surface and thus prevent them from being sabotaged. However,
you should first check that they are working properly so as to avoid
drilling any unattractive holes in the ‘wrong’ location.

b) Installing the door/window detector
• Open the casing; the two casing halves are secured by two catches (‘A’ in
figure 4 below).
Using a fingernail or a flat screwdriver carefully push the two catches approx.
1 millimetre inwards until the casing opens.
First press one catch inwards and pull the casing approx. 1-2 millimetres
apart at this location. Then press the other catch inwards; the casing now
opens.
• The hole ‘B’ is used for mounting the device with screws. The two openings
labelled ‘C’ are available to feed a cable into the door/window detector (for
hard-wired external sensors).
• Before installing the door/window detec-
tor ‘FAZ-TF’ in the desired location (see
following page), the cables of the ex-
ternal sensors (NC or NO contacts, if
available) must be inserted.
There are 2 openings (‘C’) on the back
side of the door/window detector,
through which the cables can be lead
inwards.
Later when installing the door/window
detector, make sure not to bend or pinch
the cables.

In the door/window detector itself, the
cables are fed under the battery com-
partment for the LR44 button cells to
the screw terminal strips (otherwise the
LR44 button cells cannot be inserted
properly), see figure 5.
KL1:
The connection for external NO con-
tacts is always active, irrespective as
to whether ‘disarmed’, ‘internally armed’
or ‘externally armed’ is set; the alarm
base station sets off an alarm imme-
diately upon a connection between the
two screw terminals!
KL2:
For external NC contacts (if using KL2,
the jumper in the terminal must be re-
moved!)
• Attach the door/window detector using
the enclosed double-sided tape.
Alternatively you can attach it with a
screw through the opening ‘B’, see fig-
ure 4 on page 11. This also prevents it
from being easily removed from the wall
(sabotage protection).
The screw is also indicated in figure 5
to the right.
Figure 5
When drilling or fastening screws be careful not to acciden-
tally damage any power supply lines, gas or water pipes as
this could pose a life-threatening danger!
•Do
not insert the batteries yet. The casing should initially remain open.

• If you use the supplied magnet, attach it using the enclosed double-sided
tape (please note the recommended distances, see figure 1 on page 8).
Alternatively, you can use 2 screws to attach the magnet. Remove the
magnet’s casing using a flat screwdriver and screw in suitable screws.
Afterwards, replace the casing.

After installing of the door/window detector as described in section
7. b) on pages 11 to 13, the casing of the device is still open and
the batteries are not yet inserted.
• If you want to connect additional NC contacts to the ‘KL2’ connector, first
remove the jumper from the KL2 connector. When connecting several external
NC contacts, they must be connected in series. Do not connect terminating
resistors.
Please refer to figure 2 on page 9 for
connecting NC contacts.
• Insert 3 AAA batteries into the 3 battery
holders making sure polarity is correct. See
figure 6.
• The door/window detector contacts the
alarm base station by sending a radio signal.
The LED of the door/window detector
briefly lights up and the alarm base station
emits a short signal tone to confirm signal
reception.
• If the internal magnet contact is to be used
(with the supplied magnets), close the
window that the magnet is attached to.
This activates the internal magnet.
You may need to open and close the
windows again to ensure that a radio
signal is sent to the alarm base station.

• If you have connected additional NO contacts to the ‘KL1’ connector (see
figure 3 on page 10), please insert 3 type ‘LR44’ button cells observing correct
polarity into the battery compartment, see figure 7.
The 3 button cells must be positioned such that each ‘plus’ (‘+’) points upwards
(please note the ‘+’ symbol on the circuit board in the battery compartment;
the lettering on the button cells).
Please note:
The ‘KL1’ connection for NO contacts is always
active, irrespective as to whether ‘disarmed’,
‘internally armed’ or ‘externally armed’ is set.
This is ideal, if glass break sensors with NO
contacts are used. An alarm is set off imme-
diately when a pane of glass is smashed!
If the glass break detector has a polar-
ity specification, attach the ‘plus’ con-
tact to the left KL1 screw terminal (see
figure 5).
• Close the door/window detector’s cas-
ing, so that the two locking hooks au-
dibly click in.

Once the new batteries have been inserted the
sensor’s LED briefly blinks once. The radio con-
nection to the alarm base station has been estab-
lished and checked.
For instance, instead of replacing batteries, the
wiring of the door/window detector can be changed,
to connect additional external sensors, for exam-
ple.
• Once you have finished replacing the batteries
or made changes to the wiring, close the sensor’s
casing again.
• Briefly press the ‘OK’ button on the alarm base
station to end the maintenance. You are now in
the sensor list again. You can use the ‘y’ and ‘z’
buttons to select another sensor (or select a device
using the ‘x’ button).
• You can exit the ‘service’ mode by pressing the
‘wC’ button three times. This returns you to the
normal display mode (top level) of the alarm base
station.
Please note:
If the internal magnet contact of the door/window detector is used
(with the supplied magnets, either mounted on the left or the right),
the contact must be triggered one time after battery replace-
ment in order to reactivate the internal magnet contact.
After replacing the batteries, open and close the window or
door to which the magnet is attached 1 time.
