Installation Instructions
Mounting
Caution: Locate the magnet away from manual
handles and latches to prevent it from being used
as a foothold or handle to close the door.
1. Slide the slot of the switch over the beveled-edge of
the L-bracket and snap it tightly into place as shown in
Figure 1. Screw down firmly.
Figure 4
2. Align the magnet with the switch and use screws to
attach it to the door as shown in Figure 2. The switch
and magnet must be aligned within 1/2 inch of each
other to prevent false alarms.
3. Connect the switch wires to the alarm system and test to
verify proper operation.
Important: The contact should be mounted at
least 13 inches from the floor. If other track-
mounted devices interfere, mount the switch under
them.
