RF-CMDWS-OD-319-NN Installation Instructions
Description
The Outdoor Sensor is a supervised,
wireless sensor that detects openings and
closings. The unique design allows
mounting the device outdoors. The sensor
and magnet are mounted using screws
(included) or straps to secure to a post.
When activated, the sensor transmits an
open (trip) or close (restore) signal to the
panel. These are the signals the unit
provides: supervisory, tamper and low
battery (as needed). The sensor is powered
by (2) replaceable 3-VDC, lithium coin-cell
batteries.
Installation Guidelines
• Mounting the sensor on metal can affect
the transmitting range and magnet gap
performance. Therefore, test the sensor
from the desired location using the installer
sensor test, before permanently mounting it.
• Mount the sensor on a non-moving frame
or post, allowing the magnet to move
activating the sensor.
• Mount sensors at least 5 inches above the
ground to avoid damaging them.
• The sensors can be mounted to either
wood or metallic surfaces.
• The magnet should be mounted within 7/8"
for wood or 1/2" for metal installations.
Based on the magnet mounting spacing,
direction of operation and material of the
mounting surface, the gap for opening will
vary between 1/8" and 1 ¾". Desired

operation should be checked before
permanent installation.
• After mounting the sensor, re-test the
sensor using the procedure in the section
"Testing the Sensor."
Mounting the Sensor
Mount the sensor using the supplied mounting
screws for permanent mounting installations.
Note: The gap between the sensor and magnet
should not exceed a maximum of 3/8".
Mounting Screws
1. Remove the cover screw from the sensor.
Mount the sensor with 3
mounting screws
2. Mount the magnet into the desired location
using the supplied, making sure the alignment
mark lines up with the sensor mark.
Using Mounting Straps
1. The sensor case is designed for strap
mounting. Using a plastic tie strap wrap the
strap around the mounting post and through the
sensor.
Mount the magnet
with 2 mounting
screws
