Avoid mounting the point transmitter on
metal surfaces as it can reduce the range of
the unit. Placing the point transmitter on
ferrous metal (iron or steel) surfaces can
affect operation of the magnetic contact.

1.0 General Information

The SE3401 Point Transmitter is a magnetic and dry
contact wireless transmitter used for monitoring assets.

The unit is equipped with an internal reed contact for
use with an external magnet assembly (included), a
cover tamper switch, and RF supervision. The SE3401
can accept a supervised dry contact input from an
external device.

1.1 Supervision

Supervision is provided by transmitting a low power
level signal to the receiver every 70 min. if there is no
other activity. All transmissions from the SE3401 send
battery status information to the system.

1.2 Auto Tracking

Once an alarm is initiated, such as the transmitter
moved away from the magnet, the auto tracking feature
begins. The transmitter sends a signal back to the
central console every few seconds, updating its location
for several minutes. To reset the transmitter after an
alarm has been initiated, all device conditions (such as
tamper, loop, or magnet) must be reset to normal.
