DCT6

Wireless Door Contact

V1.0

Installation Manual

Introduction

The DCT6 is a wireless magnetic door contact that is discreetly 
hidden within the frame of a door or window.

Installation

Transmitter:

 Drill a 3/4 in. x 2.75 in. depth (16 mm x 70 mm depth) 

hole in the frame and insert the DCT6 transmitter. Secure the 
transmitter body A- with two screws or B- with one screw and 
remove one flange if it interferes with the radial opening or C- 
press fit installation on narrow frames, see Figure 3, A, B and C.

Magnet:

 Drill a 3/4 in. x 1.1 in. (19 mm x 28 mm) hole in the frame 

to be aligned with the transmitter when door/window is closed 
and insert the magnet with press fit. Make sure it is aligned with 
the transmitter and that the gap, when closed, is not greater than 
0.4 in. / 10 mm.

 

Setting RF Frequency / Replacing Battery

1.

Open the top of the DCT6 transmitter, turning the cover 
counter clockwise, see Figure 2.

2.

Locate the switch on the PCB, as shown in Figure 4.

3.

Slide the switch to the desired frequency 433 MHz or 
868 MHz. 

4.

Remove the battery for a few seconds. Replace the battery 
back (verify the polarity and insert pr and - marked on 
the battery terminals, see Figure 5. 

We recommend to replace the battery ever 3 years to 
avoid leakage.
