Paradox DCT10 Quick Start Manual

DCT10: 2-Zone Long-Range Door Contact V3.0
Description
The DCT10 supports two inputs simultaneously (reed switch and
universal transmitter input*).
The DCT10 transmits two different serial numbers (SN), one for
each input, which are always SN and SN+1(e.g. 240 000 & 240 001).
A switch or other security device can be connected to the
universal transmitter input terminals to provide wireless
transmission of the device's open/closed status.
Location & Mounting
There should be at least 30cm (1ft) between each transmitter and
1.5m (5ft) between the transmitters and the receiver. The
transmitter comes with two reed switches allowing you to place
the transmitter either vertically or horizontally. Simply place the
magnet in line with the reed switch you wish to use.
DCT10 Overview
WARNINGS:
• Do not connect an EOL resistor to the universal transmitter input.
• Do not cut, bend or alter the antenna. Avoid mounting the door contact near or on metal as this may affect transmission.
• After changing the jumper settings, press and hold the anti-tamper switch for two seconds in order to save the changes.
* Note: Cables connected to the Universal input must be less than 3m long.

Features
• 2-zone capabilities where each zone is independent and has its own
serial number: Zone 1 - one of two high-sensitivity reed switches
(magnet included), Zone 2 - universal transmitter input* (N.O./N.C.)
• Wireless range in a typical residential environment: 70m (230ft) with
MG5000, MG5050 and RTX3
• Low Battery and signal transmission LED (Optional for EN 50131
Grade 2)
• Available in 433MHz or 868MHz
• Dual anti-tamper switch
• Dimensions: 12.4cm x 4.5cm x 3.3cm (4.9in x 1.8in x 1.3in)
Testing the Unit
1) Perform a signal strength test before finalizing installation.
If the transmission is weak, relocate the transmitter by a few
inches to improve reception.
2) Verify that the batteries are inserted properly.
3) Assign the door contact to a Magellan receiver.
4) Open and close the assigned door/window to verify proper
operation.
Learn Mode
Learn Mode allows you to transmit the serial numbers of each input. To enter Learn
Mode: open the cover and wait until the LED stops flashing.
Input
Input 1 (reed switch): Press the
anti-tamper switch once.
Input 2 (universal input): Press the
anti-tamper switch twice within one
second.

Serial Number Visual Confirmation
SN The LED will flash once
(e.g. 240 000) four times.
SN+1 The LED will flash twice
(e.g. 240 001) rapidly four times.
