Nice 2GIG e Series Manual

OUTDOOR WIRELESS CONTACT SENSOR MANUAL
Installation Instructions
®
The 2GIG Outdoor Wireless Contact (2GIG-DW30E-345) is designed for installation on gates. It is one of the e-Series devices
from Nice North America LLC providing enhanced security with encrypted communications to the control panel using the
345Mhz frequency.
It communicates with the control panel using the 345 MHz
frequency. When the magnet (which is mounted near the
sensor) moves away from or closer to the door contact's
sensor, signals are transmitted to the control panel. The
sensor also has an external input that accepts connections
from Normally Closed (NC) dry contact devices. For added
protection, it is also equipped with a cover and wall tamper.
Box Contents
• Outdoor Sensor
• Magnet
• Lithium AA Batteries (2x)
• Mounting screws
Installing the Batteries
1. Loosen the cover screw.
2. Use a small screwdriver in the Pry point to remove the
Sensor Mounting Plate
3. Remove the Sealing Cover.
4. Install the two Lithium Ion batteries (note battery polarity).
5. Align the Sealing Cover to the screw hole in the sensor
cover, then press to close.
6. Engage Sensor tabs into mating holes in Sensor Mounting
Plate and swing closed. Secure with cover screw.
Mounting Guidelines
Mount the Sensor within 100 ft (30 m) of the control panel. Although the transmitter may have a range of 350 ft (106 m) open
air, the sensor location can have a significant effect on range. In open / unobstructed situations, the transmitter range may be
greater.
Testing the Outdoor Wireless Contact
Before mounting the Outdoor Wireless Contact at the desired location, perform a walk test to verify that it can establish good
Radio Frequency (RF) communication with the control panel.
Utilize a Repeater (P/N: 2GIG-RPTR1-345) if the RF communication is insufficient for the desired location.
NOTE: To fully test the Outdoor Wireless Contact, see the control panel's Installation and Programming Guide. Use
equipment code 2865 eSeries Outdoor Door/Window Sensor.
• Mount the device on a vertical surface (at a sufficient height) where water, snow and ice buildup won't interrupt operation.
NOTE: Adding silicone caulk surrounding the rubber wire seal on the Sealing Cover will increase protection against water.
• Mount the Magnet on the magnet sensing side of the Sensor (as indicated by two horizontal lines). On wooden surfaces a
gap of approximately 2" is possible. This will be decreased when mounting on metal surfaces.
• Mount the Sensor on the stationary surface, and mount the Magnet on the moving surface.
• Mount the Magnet and Sensor parallel with one another.
• Mount the sensor and magnet on the inside of the structure (if possible).
NOTE: Use screws suitable for the mounting surface.
• If mounted on a curved surface, use zip ties and/or suitable screws to fasten the Sensor and Magnet.
Tamper Protection
The tamper switch will activate if the cover is removed or if the sensor is detached from its mounting plate.
