GENERAL INFORMATION

The 5816 Door/Window Transmitter has its own unique serial number permanently assigned during manufacture. You must “enroll” the transmitter serial number in the control prior to its usage in the system. Refer to the control unit’s installation instructions for further details. Note: During programming of the control unit, 5816 transmitters shall be treated as “RF” (i.e., supervised RF) Type (mandatory for UL installations).

The 5816 has two unique zones; the first is for a wired closed circuit contact loop and the second for its built-in reed switch (used in conjunction with a magnet as described below). Either or both zones may be used. For UL installations, a contact may not be more than 3 feet from the transmitter.

A built-in cover tamper switch is activated when the cover is removed.

INSTALLATION Mounting

For proper orientation of the unit in relation to the mounting plate, loop wiring, and/or magnet, read all of this section before installing the unit.

The description that follows assumes that the unit will be mounted as shown in the diagrams, with the magnet (if used) located to the unit’s right. The unit may, however, be installed in any direction, as long as the relationship of the unit to its mounting plate and (if used) magnet is maintained.

Although two holes are provided in the unit that would permit mounting directly to a surface (holes ‘A’ in Diagram 2) it is recommended that the mounting plate be used, for ease in removing the unit for servicing should it become necessary.

Diagram 2. Transmitter, Cover Removed

Before mounting the transmitter permanently, conduct Go/No Go tests (see control’s instructions) to verify adequate signal strength and reorient or relocate the transmitter if necessary.

1.Remove the transmitter’s cover by inserting the flat blade of a small screwdriver into the pry-off slot at the end of the unit farthest from the cover’s decorative ribs, and twisting the blade.

2.Disengage the supplied mounting plate from the unit by inserting the blade of a small screwdriver into the locking tab release window (see Diagram 2) and pressing it against the locking tab (see Diagram 1) while sliding the plate downward along the case back.

3.If a wired contact loop is to be used with concealed wiring, feed the wires through the concealed wiring entry hole at one corner of the mounting plate.

For surface wiring entry, a thin “breakout” area is provided in the case wall. Wiring can be run through this “breakout” in the case when attaching the case in step 5.

4.Install the mounting plate, with its case holding posts pointing up (in this example), in the location selected as described in the control unit’s installation instructions. Use the flat head screws supplied.

5.Attach the case back to the mounting plate by sliding the keyhole slots in the case back down onto the mounting plate’s case holding posts. The locking tab will click as the case back locks in place.

6.If the unit’s reed switch is to be used, mount a No. 5799 Magnet (or equivalent; obtain separately) adjacent to the alignment marks on the case and the mounting plate’s alignment strip (see Diagram 2).
