ELK-6023 Wireless Recessed Door Sensor
APPLICATION
The ELK-6023 Wireless Recessed Door Sensor is the ultimate
wireless security device for discriminating customers. It mounts
into a 3/4” drilled hole in a wooden door jamb and becomes
nearly invisible once the door is closed. It features Elk’s Industry
Leading Two-Way Technology with positive signal
acknowledgment, extended range, and long battery life. It
works with Wireless Transceivers and Controls that accept Elk’s
two-way technology; such as, the ELK-M1XRFTW. Each time
the 6023 transmits it sends a unique TXID identifier and a Loop
number.

Sensor Location and Mounting
Mount the 6023 sensor in the doorframe (jamb) and the magnet
in the door opposite the sensor. An ideal spot is 4 to 6 inches
down or over from the top corner of the door’s latch (lock) side.
Best wireless coverage is achieved by mounting the sensor at
least 5 ft. above the finished floor. It is important for there be at
least a 1/8” gap between the door and the jamb to accomodate
the sensor and magnet mounting flanges. Note: A door’s weight
will generally cause it to sag away from the hinge leaving the
most gap at the top of the door on the latch (lock) side.
NEVER mount this sensor on the hinge side of a door as the
operating gap may not be sufficient to cause an alarm.
mount this sensor in a metal door or jamb as metal will negatively
affect wireless performance. Observe temperature and humidity
specs. Do not install in areas with high moisture/humidity
Read and follow the directions below before attempting any
installation, including drilling any holes. And use caution when
drilling to avoid striking or drilling into any door glass or sidelights.
1. Carefully remove the sensor cover (end cap) using a small
flat screwdriver or fingernail in the slot provided. Gently pry
upwards being careful not to drop the cap.
2. Gently grasp the circuit board edges using fingertips ONLY
and remove it from the housing. Non-metallic tweezers may
be used if the board does not easily slide out.
3. Enroll the sensor board into control using either of the two
methods in next section. After successful enrollment slide
the circuit board back into the slots provided in the housing.
Gently push but
4. Hold the sensor close to the desired location and verify that
it operates properly.
sensor until proper operation is confirmed at this location.
5. At the mounting location draw a pencil line across the jamb
from the door stop to the edge. Draw another line on the
door edge directly opposite the one on the jamb. On both
lines measure back a distance of 1/2 the thickness of the
door and place vertical marks. These will be the centerline
drill points. Be sure to allow for the thickness of any
weatherstripping that may be present.
6. Use a sharp brad point or paddle bit to drill a hole 3/4”
diameter by 3” deep at the jamb centerline mark. Be careful
not to chip or tear the wood finish. Remove all sawdust
from the hole.
7. Slide the sensor assembly into the drilled hole until the flange
touches the jamb.

The ELK-6023 is intended to be installed in accordance with:
The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
IMPORTANT: An ELK-M1XRFTW Receiver must be installed
and enrolled with the M1 Control before any attempt to install
or enroll wireless sensors.
8. Move the door to a nearly closed position and check or
adjust the pencil lines on the door edge so they align with
the center of the sensor. Use a brad point bit to drill a hole
3/4” diameter by 1” deep at centerline mark. Remove any
sawdust and press fit the magnet into the hole. A small
drop of RTV sealant may also be used to hold it in place.
Enrolling via M1 Keypad Installer Programming

20 seconds, then re-insert.
6. Upon successful enrollment the Keypad will chime and
briefly display the 6 digit TXID code of the sensor. If
enrollment fails the TXID will not display. Should this
happen remove the battery and wait 15 to 20 seconds
before re-inserting. In certain instances it may even be
necessary to repeat steps 3 - 6.
7. The Rapid-Enroll feature will auto advance to the next
wireless zone in sequence and wait for the next sensor
enrollment. Simply repeat step 5 for each additional sensor.
8. To end Rapid-Enroll af ter all wireless zones (sensors) have
been enrolled press the ELK key one time.
9.
Set the Loop Number to 2. Loop 2 tells M1 to process
this as a single “built-in” reed switch. Since the 6023
is only have a single reed switch, M1 should accept and
process the loop default 0 as a 2 without it being changed
for 0 to 2. We suggest verifying this and while there going
ahead and changing it to 2. To review (or change) the
Loop #, scroll up or down to the desired M1 wireless zone
and press the left arrow. The screen will display a 9 digit
number (TXID in decimal) followed by Loop=.

Enrolling from ElkRP Software
1. Launch ElkRP and open the desired Customer Account file.
2. If there are no wireless zones currently in this M1 then you
will need to create a group of 16 wireless zones. In the
folders column right click on Zones (Inputs) and then click
New Wireless Zones. Place a check mark in the box beside
the desired group, then click OK. Repeat if additional
wireless groups are required. All expanded zones must be
defined in groups of 16. The M1XRFTW wireless must
always start at Zone 17 (Group 2) and the last wireless zone
CANNOT be higher than Zone 160 (Group 10).
Note: M1 only allows Zones 17 to 160 to be used for
wireless zones (max. of 144 wireless sensors). If a large
number of wireless zones are expected, avoid conflict
with any future Hardwired Zones in the range of zones
17 to 160 by NOT enrolling any Hardwired Zone
Expanders (M1XIN) at data bus address 10 or lower.
3. Double click on Wireless - Group _ (the group just added),
then double click one zone at a time to define a name, type,
and options. Repeat for each wireless zone. It is more
time efficient to use ElkRP to program the Zone Definitions

FCC AND IC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT:
Operational Testing
A two color LED on the sensor circuit board displays feedback
of transmission status. While useful during installation and
troubleshooting it is not viewable after sensor is installed.
GREEN blink = Good
Sensor has successfully transmitted a violation (alarm)
transmission to the transceiver and that signal has been
received and acknowledged by the transceiver.
RED blink = CAUTION
Indicates that sensor was unable to communicate with the
transceiver after multiple repeated attempts. The distance
between the sensor and the transceiver may be too great.
Another possibility is that the transceiver is disconnected or
powered off. Try the following troubleshooting steps:
A. Verify transceiver is on with its status LED blinking.
B. Trip another sensor to determine if it can successfully
communicate with the transceiver.
If steps A & B pass, try moving the sensor closer to the
Transceiver and re-test. If sensor communicates at a closer
range then one of two solutions may be needed:
1. Relocate the transceiver to a closer and/or more central
location to this and all other sensors.
2. Purchase and install an additional “remote” transceiver to
cover the area where this sensor was mounted.
Per UL a complete test of the security system and all zones
should be performed once a week. The zones may be walk
tested using the M1 Keypad Menu 3 - Walktest Area.
