MOUNTING

Choose a mounting location for the 5811 where the device is stationary and the magnet is mounted to the moving part of the
door or window. To verify adequate signal strength, conduct the Go/No Go test (see control's instructions) on the 5811 before
mounting permanently.
1. Install the Battery by inserting one edge of the battery under one of the two plastic battery retainer clips, then pressing
down firmly to snap it beneath both clips; see figure 1.
2. Mount the 5811 using double-faced tape (supplied) by affixing it to the back of the unit and mounting the unit in place.
Use screws (optional) if desired; see figure 2. Mount the magnet (supplied) near the alignment marks on the case (see

Replacing an existing unit: The back-mounting plate must be replaced when replacing the 5811. Use
standard installation practices when removing the unit to avoid any damage to the mounting surface.
