Wireless (Basic) Sensor:
The KD-DS-5816WM wireless door/window sensor is powered by a single CR123A battery (included). The
device emits RF message signals when the corresponding door or window is opened or closed. Additionally, it
is suitable for concurrent use with compatible Honeywell security systems featuring 345 MHz alarm panels.
This device also features wired screw terminals for external wired switch connection. (Note: If this option is
not to be used, you must apply a jumper wire at the wiring terminals to disable the feature. Otherwise,
inadvertent trigger may occur at the HSRS controller.) For details including features, special considerations,
and specifications, refer to the following resource:

IMPORTANT: This device features wired contact screw terminals for optional external wired
switch (N/C) or closed contact loop. Unless you plan to utilize this input, it must be disabled
to avoid inadvertent trigger at the HSRS controller. To disable, apply a short jumper wire
across the wiring terminals.
Installation:
•
Detach front cover from sensor unit
•
Insert battery (CR123A - included)
•
Mount the device as instructed below, based on door construction:
•
For wood doors, mount the sensor (& magnet) using 3M adhesive backing or screws (both
included).
•
For metal doors, patio doors, and other metal-framed openings, masking tape is strongly
recommended for temporarily mounting the sensor (& magnet). Using trial-and-error testing,
reposition as necessary until you have confirmed consistent, reliable signal detection at the
controller/receiver. Apply 3M adhesive backing (or screws) for permanent hold.
Note: Attach sensor unit to the stationary part of the desired opening (typically the door-frame or
window-frame), and attach magnet to the door or window.
