Recessed Mount Door / Window Sensor
The Recessed Door/Window Sensor (60-409) can be installed in doors and suitable windows. The sensor uses ITI's patented Learn Mode technology, which simplifies sensor programming. The installer merely trips the tamper switch of the sensor by opening its cover, pulling out the circuit board about 1/2". The sensor transmits its ID to the panel, which LEARNS the sensor.
The sensor transmits open and close signals to the panel when a magnet (mounted in the door or window) is moved away from or closer to the sensor. When the door or window is opened, the sensor transmits open (TRIP) to the panel. Similarly, when the door or window is closed, it sends close (RESTORE) signals to the panel. These signals are sent to the panel whether it is armed or not. The sensor also sends supervisory signals to the panel approximately every 64 minutes.
The sensor contains an RF transmitter that can transmit at least 1000 feet in open air. It also contains one reed switch and one built-in tamper switch. Removing the sensor circuit board trips the tamper switch and causes the sensor to transmit its ID to the panel's CPU.
The sensor is powered by a 3.6 volt lithium battery, which typically lasts from 5 to 8 years. If the battery becomes low, the sensor transmits a Low Battery (Trouble) Report to the panel.
