Window/Door Contact FMK 100
Product description:
The KATHREIN Digital Systems GmbH window/ door contact is an integral part of your
alarm system and is used to secure your windows and doors. The contact consists of
two parts (sensor + magnet). One is fixed at your window or door frame, the other one
is fixed at the wing of the door or window sash. Thus, the window/door contact
immediately registers if a window or door is opened or closed. The window/door
contact is available in three colors: white, brown, and anthracite.
Sensor data:
Dimensions sensor: 85 x 24.6 x 19.5 mm (3.3 x 0.96 x 0.76 in) (L x W x H)
Dimensions magnet: 45 x 12 x 9 mm (1.77 x 0.47 x 0.35 in) (L x W x H)
Weight: Sensor: 32 g (0.07 lbs), Magnet: 8 g (0.01 lbs)
Place of installation: Only indoors (windows/doors)
Operating temperature: -10 °C to 50 °C (14 °F to 122 °F)
Humidity: Maximum 85% (non-condensing)
Radio frequency: 868.35 MHz
Detection method: Magnetic measurement

LED:
In normal circumstances, the LED of the window/door contact will be off. It only
flashes in the following cases:
•If the window/door contact is removed or turned in a different position (in
this case, the tamper contact is opened)
•If the battery is low and the sensor is opened
•During the range test for three minutes after you pressing the Learn button
Battery:
The window/door contact requires a 3V CR123 lithium battery. The average battery life
is 2.6 years (if used 20 times a day). After the sensor has transmitted the low battery
warning, the battery will last for about one more month.
Connecting the window/door contact and putting it into operation
1. Remove the battery insulation tab at the back of the unit before the first use.
2. Open the web interface of the alarm panel, go to the menu “Sensors” “Add”
and press “Start”.
3. Press the Learn button of the window/door contact. A red LED lights up.
4. The alarm panel will confirm the successful addition with a brief signal tone
and display the sensor in the lower menu.
5. Click “Add” to add the sensor to the sensor list.

8
Range test:
To test the signal strength at the desired installation location, perform a range test.
1. Open the alarm panel menu “Sensors” “Range” and press “Start”.
2. Press the Learn button of the window/door contact.
3. The sensor and the signal strength should be indicated. The higher the
indicated number the better the reception (1–9).
4. Click “Stop” to end the test.
Please note:
If there is no signal at the installation location or the signal strength is below 4 or
frequently falls below this level (signal fluctuations of 2 to 3 are normal), we
recommend using a repeater to improve the signal.
Installation:
•We recommend screwing the supplied screws through the marked holes
for mounting the sensor (7) and the magnet (11).
•Alternatively, you can use the supplied self-adhesive pads for mounting
the sensor/magnet. Since the adhesive strength of the pads may decrease
after some time, there is a risk that the sensor/magnet will then detach
from the surface.
oBefore using the adhesive pads, clean the surface with a degreaser.
oRemove the protective film from one side of the double-sided adhesive
pad and press the adhesive pad firmly against the sensor for approx. 1
minute. Then remove the protective film from the other side and press
the sensor firmly onto the surface.
•The sensor consists a top and a bottom part. To open the sensor, slide a
narrow slotted screwdriver into the notch (8) and tilt the top of the sensor
upwards.
•To close the sensor, hook in the mounting hook (6) and tilt the top part
downwards. Click it into the recesses of the bottom part and make sure
that the two sensor parts are firmly seated on top of each other.
•When closing the sensor, the tamper contact (4) must protrude through
the opening (9) and rest against the wall. If the housing is opened after
installation or the window/door sensor is torn off, a signal will be
transmitted to the alarm panel.
•As with the sensor housing, the top part of the magnet can be detached
from the bottom part for screwing the magnet on. To open the magnet,
slide a narrow slotted screwdriver into the notch between the top and the
bottom part of the magnet.
•To reassemble both parts of the magnet, click the top part into the
recesses (12) of the bottom part.

Sketch:
•This sketch only serves as an example. The window/door sensor can also
be installed at other positions.
•We recommend installing the magnet on the door or window side and the
sensor on the frame.
•Pay attention to the marking (2) when installing the sensor. The magnet
(13) must be installed close to this marking (maximum distance 20–30 mm)
to close the sensor circuit. The status (open or closed) can be monitored
in the sensor list of the web interface of the alarm centre.
Note:
•The window/door sensor can also be installed on double casement
windows. The distance between sensor and magnet must not exceed 20–
30 mm.
•If the sensor is installed at the bottom of a window, it is possible to tilt the
window without triggering an alarm (maximum distance between sensor
and magnet 20–30 mm). We do not recommend this type of installation, as
tilted windows represent a security risk.
•If the window/door contact is installed on metal/steel doors, it should be
insulated from the mounting surface by means of a rubber pad. Failure to
do so may result in malfunctions.
•Do not bypass the jumper (3) in the housing to keep the supervisor
test/battery test of the sensor activated.
