2GIG-TILT1-345
F/G TILT SENSOR, 345MHZ
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The Tilt sensor (2GIG-TILT1-345) is designed for use where the lt status needs to
be monitored. A typical applicaon would be on a garage door. Other uses might
include, mailbox lid, pet doors, and hinged crawl space doors. This lt sensor
communicates with the control panel using the 345 MHz frequency. Once the
sensor is lted to 45 degrees, the sensor will transmit to the panel. The sensor
will also send a restore signal when sensor is returned to less than 45 degrees.
The 2GIG-TILT1-345 is equipped with a cover tamper switch and low baery
monitoring. If the case of the 2GIG-TILT1-345 is removed for any reason, the
radio transmier will send a tamper alert. Should the baery voltage drop below
a prescribed level, the sensor will send a low baery report indicang that the
baery requires replacing. The 2GIG-TILT-345 is compable with GC2 firmware
1.14 and higher.
