Door / Window Sensor

1. INTRODUCTION

The MCT-350 is a fully supervised, wireless magnetic door / window sensor, for use with ZigBee enabled home security panels. The sensor includes a built-in reed switch (that opens upon removal of a magnet placed near it). The MCT-350 tamper switch is activated when t he cover is removed.

A periodic supervision message is transmitted automatically. The target receiver is thus informed, at regular intervals, of the unit’s active partic ipation in the system. Operating power is obtained from an on-board 3 V Lithium batter y. W hen the battery voltage is low, a “low battery” message will be sent to the receiver 60 days before expiration of battery life (for operation in room temperature).

2. SPECIFICATIONS

WIRELESS Supported Network: ZigBee H.A 1.2 Frequency: 2.4 GHz as per IEEE 802.15.4

Tamper Alert: Reported when a tamper event occurs and in any

subsequent message, until the tamper switch is restored.

ELECTRICAL Internal Battery: 3V Lithium battery, typ e CR2450. Use Varta only. Nominal Battery Capacity: 620 mAh Battery Life Expectancy: 5 years (for typical use).

3. ACTIVATING AND PAIRING THE SENSOR

To pair the sensor to the security panel, y ou must set it to pairing mode.

1. First set the panel to pairing mode and then the sensor.

2. To activate, pull t he activation strip (from either side) that protrudes

from the back of the sensor.

3. The LED blinks 3 time s e very 5 seconds (repeated for up to 20 times) to indicate that the sensor is searching for a security panel.

Note: If sensor pairing is not successful during the searching process by tripping the door / window sensor or by pressing the tamper switch the searching process will restart.

4. Complete the pairing procedure on the security panel (see the pairing instructions in the security panel’s installation guide).

Note: Pairing should be performed before installation.

4. INSTALLATION AND SENSOR TESTING

CAUTION: This equipment shall be installed by Service Personnel in non-hazardous indoor locations only.

4.1 Mounting

NOTE: It is highly recommended to attach the door / window sensor 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 sensor’s marked side . The sensor should be mounted on the fixed surface and the ma gnet on the moving surface (see Figure 3b).

1. Peel away the release liners from the two strips of double-sided adhesive tape and attach to the device a nd magnet.

You can reboot the sensor, as follows:

1. Remove the battery cover.

7. DEFAULTING THE SENSOR

CAUTION! The defaulting process removes the device from the network and enables re-pairing.

Open the battery cover and pull back the clip to remove the battery (see Figure 4).

8. TROUBLESHOOTING

If you encounter one of the following problems with the MCT-350, perform the suggested remedy:

Attempt to pair the sensor is unsucce ssful.

Make sure that the sensor has been defaulted Make sure the security panel supports the

The sensor and the panel do not communicate.

Perform the signal strength testing procedure described in the security panel installation manual. Make sure that th e si gnal is sufficient.
