Specifiche

Configurazione e installazione

Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and reliable operation of your outdoor contact sensor.

Fasi di installazione:

1. Installazione della batteria: Open the sensor unit's casing. Insert the two provided AA lithium batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Close the casing in modo sicuro.
2. Posizione di montaggio: Choose a flat, stable surface for mounting the sensor and magnet. Ensure the location is clean and dry. The sensor is weatherproof, but direct exposure to extreme conditions should be considered.
3. Mounting the Sensor Unit: Position the main sensor unit on the stationary part of the door, gate, or window frame. Use the provided screws to securely fasten the unit. The sensor housing includes a tamper switch; ensure the cover is properly seated to prevent false tampehm allarmi.
4. Montaggio del magnete: Position the rare earth magnet on the moving part of the door, gate, or window, directly adjacent to the sensor unit. The optimal gap between the sensor and the magnet is approximately 1/4 inch (0.6 cm). However, the sensor can tolerate a gap of up to two inches (5 cm) on wooden surfaces, and it can also function effectively when mounted on metal posts. Use the provided screws to secure the magnet.
5. Programming to 2GIG Panel: Refer to your 2GIG control panel's user manual for specific instructions on how to enroll new wireless sensors. The DW30 sensor is designed for easy integration with 2GIG systems. Follow the panel's prompts to add the sensor to your security system.

Istruzioni per l'uso

Once installed and programmed, the 2GIG DW30 sensor operates by detecting the presence or absence of its magnet. When the magnet is in close proximity to the sensor, the contact is considered closed. When the magnet moves away from the sensor (e.g., a gate opens), the contact opens, and the sensor transmits a signal to your 2GIG control panel.

• Funzionamento normale: The sensor will silently monitor the open/closed status of the protected entry point.
• Trigger di allarme: If the system is armed and the sensor detects an open state, it will trigger an alarm according to your panel's programming.
• TampRilevamento errore: The sensor includes a tamper switch. If the sensor's cover is removed or tampered with while the system is armed, it will trigger a tampehm allarme.

Manutenzione

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliability of your sensor.

• Sostituzione della batteria: The sensor is designed for long battery life (up to 5 years). Your 2GIG control panel will typically indicate a low battery condition for the sensor. When this occurs, replace both AA lithium batteries promptly. Use only high-quality lithium or alkaline AA batteries.
• Pulizia: Periodically clean the exterior of the sensor and magnet with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the housing.
• Ispezione: Regularly inspect the sensor and magnet for any signs of physical damage, loose mounting, or obstruction. Ensure the gap between the sensor and magnet remains consistent.

Risoluzione dei problemi

If you encounter issues with your 2GIG DW30 sensor, consider the following:

• Sensor Not Reporting:
  • Controllare il livello delle batterie. Sostituirle se sono scariche.
  • Ensure the sensor and magnet are properly aligned and within the recommended gap.
  • Verify the sensor is correctly enrolled in your 2GIG control panel. Refer to your panel's manual for re-enrollment steps if necessary.
  • Check for any physical obstructions or interference between the sensor and the control panel.
• Falso Tamper Alarms:
  • Ensure the sensor's cover is securely closed and latched.
  • Check for any movement or vibration of the mounting surface that might cause the cover to shift.
• Gamma limitata:
  • While the sensor has a good range, large metal objects, thick walls, or other wireless devices can cause interference. Try repositioning the sensor or the control panel if possible.
  • Ensure there are no other strong radio frequency sources nearby.

For persistent issues, consult your 2GIG control panel's manual or contact 2GIG technical support.
