environment. Great for sheds, barns, garages, pool
gates, fences, and rural mailbox (notifications).
Versatile mounting options on flat and round materials.
Cover and rear tamper detection.
Can be painted to coordinate with mounting surface.
Operating temp: – 40 to + 50°C (– 40 to +122°F) at
RH of 100% (rain, snow).
Magnet Gap (Wood): 2 inches
Magnet Gap (Metal): 1.75 inches /no Magnet Spacer
Magnet Gap (Metal): 2 inches /with Magnet Spacer

Installing / Replacing the Batteries
IMPORTANT:
Change both batteries at the same time. Do not mix
weak batteries with new batteries.
Use two (2) lithium 1.5VDC AA cells. (For best life, use
Eveready's Energizer Ultimate LITHIUM AA batteries,
Honeywell part number 462)
OBSERVE BATTERY POLARITY.
Battery Replacement:
1. Remove cover screw and swing Sensor to remove from
Sensor Mounting Plate.
2. Use screwdriver in any pivot point and pry Battery
Chamber Cover off. Replace batteries.
3. Orient Battery Chamber Cover so the screw hole lines
up with the screw hole in the sensor cover, and press to
close.
4. Engage Sensor tabs into mating holes in Sensor
Mounting Plate and swing closed. Secure with cover
screw.

Mounting Guidelines
Mount the Magnet on the magnet sensing side of the
Sensor as indicated by the ribs on the Sensor.
Mount Sensor on stationary surface, and Magnet on
moveable surface.
When used on wooden sheds and barns, mount the
sensor and magnet on the inside of the structure.
Use the Magnet Spacer when mounting on metal
surfaces; or if needed to achieve proper alignment with
Sensor.
Flat Surfaces:
Use screws suitable for the material being fastened to.

ROUTING EXTERNAL WIRING (Optional for use with
external closed contact switches):
Note: Use minimum of 22AWG jacketed cable. The
contact switch must be a normally closed type.
UL – The wired contact must be less than 3 feet from
the transmitter.
1. Strip cable jacket back 4-inches to allow enough slack to
remove Battery Chamber Cover when changing
batteries.
2. Pass cable through the access hole in Sensor Mounting
Plate. Use cable notch on mounting plate to pass
jacketed portion of cable through. Then attach the
Sensor Mounting Plate.
3. Route cable to the external contact switch and fasten at
intervals to secure cable.
4. Remove the Battery Chamber Cover and thread wires
through the rubber wire seal.
5. Connect wires to terminal block in battery chamber,
and replace Battery Chamber Cover. (Note, orient the
cover so the screw hole lines up with the screw hole in
the sensor cover, and press to close.)
6. Engage Sensor tabs into Sensor Mounting Plate mating
holes and swing closed. Secure with cover screw.

PAINTING THE SENSOR:
The sensor and magnet may be painted to coordinate its color with the mounting surface. Use
only paints that are made for plastic and follow the manufacturers directions for preparing the
plastic and applying the paint. Note, the required drying and curing times.
DO NOT USE METALLIC PAINT COLORS.
Recommended Paints:
Krylon®"Fusion for Plastic"
Rust-Oleum®"Plastic"
Dupli-Color®"Vinyl & Fabric Coating"
Programming the Control Panel
You must program the transmitter's serial number, input type (RF Supervised), response type, and loop # in the control panel. (Either or both
loops may be used. Loop # 2 is for the magnet sensing, and Loop # 1 is for the external contact switch.) Refer to the control panel’s instructions
for further details. Note: The transmitter's serial number may be found on the carton, and in the Battery Chamber.
