Product Summary

General Information

Door/Window Sensors can be installed on doors,
windows, or many other objects that open and close.
The sensors transmit signals to the Control Panel
when a magnet mounted near the sensor is moved
away from or closer to the sensor.
Control Panel Compatibility:

Installation Guidelines

Use the following guidelines for installing Door/
Window sensors.
• Mount the sensor on the door frame and the
magnet on the door. If the sensor is to be used
on double doors, mount the sensor on the
least-used door and the magnet on the other
door.
• If possible, locate sensors within 100 feet of
the panel. While a transmitter may have a
range of 500 feet or more out in the open, the
environment at the installation site can have a
significant effect on transmitter range. Some-
times a change in sensor location can help
overcome adverse wireless conditions.
SIMON ™
• Make sure the alignment arrow on the magnet
points to the alignment mark on the sensor.
• Place sensors at least 5 inches above the floor
to avoid damaging them.
• Avoid mounting sensors in areas where they
will be exposed to moisture or where the oper-
ating temperature (10°-120°F) will be
exceeded.
• Use spacers (not included) to keep sensors and
magnets away from metal or metallic surfaces
such as foil wallpaper.

Materials Needed
