& 60-741-11-95 (brown)
Installation Instructions
Product Summary
The Recessed Micro Door/W ind ow Sensor detects if a door
or window is open or closed. During normal operation, the
sensor is installed in the door or window frame while the
magnet is installed in the door or window. When the door or
window is opened, the magnet is moved away from the sensor, which causes the sensor to transmit an open (TRIP) signal to the panel. The sensor transmits close (RESTORE)
signals to the panel when the magnet is moved b ack to the
sensor, which happens when the door or window is closed.
The sensor also sends s upervisory s ignals to t he panel every
64 minutes (approximat ely). The sensor is power ed by a 3.0
volt, long life, lithium battery.
Tools Needed
❑ electric drill

❑
/8” paddle or twist drill bit, 4” minimum length
3
❑
/4” twist drill bit
❑ standard
❑ tape measure or ruler
❑ pencil, pen, or piece of chalk
❑ ITI RF Sniffer (P/N 60-401)
1
/8” screwdriver
Installation Guidelines
❑ Keep each sensor within 100 feet of the panel or
repeater.
❑ Avoid mounting a sensor in an area where it will be
exposed to moisture.
❑ Avoid mounting a sensor where temperatures exceed
1 2 0° F ( 4 9° C ) .
❑ Avoid mounting a sensor where temperatures fall
below 10° F (-12° C).
❑ Avoid mounting a sensor where it will be jarred exces-
sively, as this reduces battery life.
!
WARNING
Some installations may have electrical wiring running through door or windo w frames. Use caution
to avoid elec trical shocks.
❑ Whenever possible, mount the sensor in the casing, no t
in the moving door or window.
❑ T o avoid electrical wiring, mount the sensor in the
header (top) of the door or window frame.
❑ If the sensor is to be used on double doors, mount it in
the least used door, with the magnet in the other door.

Installation
1. Determine a suitable application site for the sensor.
To minimize the risk of electrical shock from concealed wires, mount the sensor in the top of the
door or window frame. (See Figure 2.)
2. Measure and mark where the magnet will be installed
in the door or window.
3. Measure the distance between the door or window and
the frame header.
4. Drill a
5
/8” diameter hole 3/4” deep into the door or win-
dow (see Figure 2).

a 5/8” drill bit, until the complete hole depth measures 3

bit until the hole depth measures 3 3/4” (see Figure 3).
9. Insert sensor into the hole in the frame. Force the metal
teeth into the frame by applying firm pressure on the
sensor.
10. Close the door or window.
Adding the Sensor to Panel Memory
Below are general guidelines for adding (learning) the sensor into your panel memory. Refer to your panel installation
instructions or reference manual for complete details.
1. Set the panel to Program mode.
2. Proceed to the LEARN SENSORS menu.
3. Select the appropriate sensor group and sensor number.
4. Trip the sensor by gently pressing the blade of a
1
/8” standard screwdriver in to the small slot on the bas e
of the sensor. Insert the screwdriver blade by gently
sliding the blade along the back of the slot (see Figure
4).

5. Push the magnet into the hole, magnet side first.
6. Measure and mark where the sensor will be installed in
the frame.
7. Verify that the sensor and magnet marks are properly
aligned with the installed magnet.
If misaligned, remeasure and remark the sensor location on the frame. (See Figure 2 or 4).
Note
The screwdriver must be unbent and free of defects
for this proces s to work.
5. With constant pressure, slowly tip the screwdriver (see
Figure 4.) until you hear beeps from the ITI RF Sniffer
(P/N 60-401) or a confirmation message from the
panel.
When you tilt the blade, as described above, the screwdriver electrically connects two contacts (see Figure 5).
This action causes the sensor to transmit a signal,
which the panel or RF Sniffer then detects.
