panels every 20 minutes, advising the Tamper
Status, Battery Status, and Event Activation Status to
the panel
3. Installation Recommendations
The SA-02N Magnetic Contact Sensor detects the opening and closing
of doors and windows, and transmits this information to the receiver
panel.
AVOID placing the Magnetic Contact Sensor near strong magnetic
or electrical fields other than the magnet with which it is intended
to be used; otherwise, performance may be affected and false
alarms may occur.
AVOID mounting on or near large metal surfaces and multiple
concrete/steel walls, as this may interfere or block the wireless
signals. Make sure to test the range from any location by using the
RF Test Procedure to ensure reception.
Install the magnetic contact sensor on windows or doors that
have firm hinges and firm locking action to prevent false
alarms associated with wind or bumping.
4. Installation Instructions
4.1 Selecting the Location
The location and mounting of the SA-02N affects both the
transmission range and the wear and tear of the transmitter. Preferably
the transmitter should be installed as close as possible to the receiver,
and mounted in a high location so that the transmission has less
interference.
