To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this equipment has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Important considerations: The sensor/transmitter must be mounted to the

Installation

door jamb. The magnet should be attached to the door. To prevent vandalism
and increase battery life, the sensor/transmitter should be installed inside.

To install the battery in the transmit-

ter remove the back of the case

by pushing in the tab on the bot­tom with a small screwdriver

and rotating the blade.

Install an alkaline type A23 12 Volt battery. The positive terminal should be
positioned as shown.

Test the location of the sensor/transmitter. Hold
the transmitter on the door jamb with one hand,
and the magnet with the other as shown. Take
the magnet away, and the chime should sound.

Alignment Marks

The edge of the magnet must be within 1/2" (13 mm) in. of the edge of the
transmitter, the alignment marks must be positioned as shown, and the front
surfaces of the magnet and transmitter should be as nearly flush with each
other as possible. It may be necessary to use the spacer under the magnet
to obtain the correct spacing.

Use either screws or double-sided tape to mount the magnet
and transmitter.

Attach the back of the case to the door jamb or wall. Snap

the front of the transmitter and magnet back on.

When attaching the magnet or transmitter
using the double-sided tape, make sure the
surface is clean.

Code and Tune Settings

Note: Most installations will not require you to change any of the jump­ers on your doorbell.
WARNING: Disconnect chime unit from power source before opening
code access door. Close door and replace screw before reconnecting
to power.

The transmitter and chime communicate by using a code that can be changed
by removing and/or adding jumpers on both the transmitter and chime. The
code is factory set; however, there are 128 selectable codes that allow you
to expand your system and prevent outside interference. Another wireless
doorbell system or other wireless products may cause interference and the
system may not function properly. Follow the instructions below for setting a
new code.

1. Disconnect the power to the transmitter and chime.

2. Open the cases and locate the jumpers on both the transmitter and chime
(See illustration).

3. The transmitter and chime both have eight different jumper locations. The
jumper positions 1 through 7 are used for setting the code.

4. To change the code, add and/or remove jumpers as needed. There are
128 different combinations. It is recommended to only change one jumper
at a time and then check to see if system is functioning properly. Note:
Jumpers in positions 1 through 7 must be exactly the same for both the
transmitter and chime for this system to function.
