Embedded Window Frame Security Sensor
Installation Instructions
The Embedded Window Frame Sensor/Transmitter
detects when a window is closed or opened, and
transmits a wireless security message to the System Control Panel. This is accomplished through the use
of a sensor unit (which contains the wireless transmitter and battery), and magnet unit. When the two are
separated, by opening the window, the sensor transmits an OPEN signal to the System Control Panel.
When the window is shut, the magnet is again within the sensor's range, and a CLOSE signal is sent.
Fig 1: Sensor and Magnet
The sensor sends supervisory signals to the panel every 64 minutes (approximately). The sensor is
powered by a 3.0V, lithium battery, model CR1632. The sensor has been designed to draw little power,
and provide long battery life. The entire package needs to be removed from the window frame for the
battery to be replaced.
Required Tools for Installation
Electric Drill
SDI Custom Frame Drill Bit
Pencil or chalk
Installation Sheet for documenting sensor locations
Guidelines
The following guidelines will help ensure that installations are safe and efficient.
A sensor can be mounted on any side of the window frame (top, side, or bottom), such that the opening
of the window moves the magnet away from the sensor.
Always try to mount the hardware such that the magnet, not the sensor, is in the moving window panel.
The sensor can be installed in the moving window panel, but should be avoided.
Do not install the sensor in the frame until after the Electronic Serial Number (ESN) has been entered
into the panel, and the wireless sensor confirmed within range. The 6 digit (including HEX values)
ESN is labeled on the device.
Sensor’s should be kept as close to the panel or repeater as possible. Try to chose locations where the
separation is within 100 ft.
Avoid mounting the sensor in a location where it will be exposed to moisture.
Avoid mounting a sensor where temperatures are excessively hot or cold.
This device cannot be mounted in a metal frame, as the frame will block the antenna (there is an
external version of this device that will fit on the exterior of an aluminum frame).

WARNING:
Some installations may have electrical wiring running through the door or window
frames. Use caution to avoid electrical shocks
