MC-302 PG2

Supervised PowerG Magnetic Contact Device

1. INTRODUCTION

The MCT-302 PG2 is a fully supervised, PowerG magnetic contact device. The device includes a built-in reed switch (that opens upon removal of a magnet placed near it). The MC-302 PG sends the parameters of the specific alarm to the control panel using PowerG 2-way communications protocol.

The MC-302 PG 2 tamper switch is activated when the cover is removed.

A periodic supervision message is transmitted automatically. The control panel is thus informed, at regular intervals, of the unit’s active participation in the system.

An LED lights whenever alarm or tamper events are reported. The LED does not light while a supervision message is being transmitted. Operating power is obtained from an on-board 3 V Lithium battery. When the battery voltage is low, a “low battery” message is sent to the receiver.

3. INSTALLATION

3.1 Mounting (Fig. 3a and 3b)

It is highly recommended to attach the transmitter to the top of the door/window on the fixed frame and the magnet to the movable part (door or window). Make sure that the magnet is located not more than 6 mm (0.25 in.) from the transmitter’s marked side.

Note: Once the cover is removed, a tamper message is transmitted to the receiver. Subsequent removal of the battery prevents transmission of "TAMPER RESTORE", leaving the receiver in permanent alert. To avoid this, during the enrolling process, press the tamper switch while you remove the battery.

Attention! The unit has a back tamper switch (optional) under the PCB. As long as the PCB is seated firmly within the base, the switch lever will be pressed against a special break-away base segment that is loosely connected to the base (Figures 2 and 3a). Be sure to fasten the break-away segment to the wall. If the detector unit is forcibly removed from the wall, this segment will break away from the base, causing the tamper switch to open.

Note: 868 MHz device is illustrated in the above example. The

same mounting procedure should be performed for 433 MHz and 915 MHz devices. * This screw is used for back tamper only.

1. Remove screw

2. Separate base from cover.

3. Flex catch and remove P.C. board

4. Mark & drill 2 holes in mounting surface.

Fasten base with 2 countersunk screws.

4. ENROLLMENT

Refer to the PowerMaster-10 Installer Guide for the device enrollment procedure.

5. MODIFY DEVICE SETTINGS

This section describes how to configure the parameters of contact sensors from the PowerMaster-10 control panel.

To Modify the Contact Sensor Settings

Refer to the PowerMaster-10 Installer Guide and perform the procedure for Adding A Wireless Device (section 4.5.2), or, Modifying a Device (section 4.5.5). Then continue below to modify the device settings.

6. LOCAL DIAGNOSTICS TEST

Before testing, separate the base from the cover (see Fig. 3a).

A. Press the tamper switch once and release it. B. Put back the cover to return the tamper switch to its normal

(undisturbed) position, and then secure the front cover to the base with the case closure screw.

C. Momentarily open the door or window and verify the red LED

blinks, indicating detection.

D. After 2 seconds the LED blinks 3 times.

The following table indicates received signal strength indication.

IMPORTANT! Reliable reception must be assured. Therefore, "poor" signal strength is not acceptable. If you receive a "poor" signal from the device, re-locate it and re-test until a "good" or "strong" signal strength is received.

Note: For detailed Diagnostics Test instructions refer to PowerMaster-10 Installer Guide.
