SiXCT-OD Wireless Outdoor Sensor Quick Installation Guide General Information and Component Identification The Honeywell Home SiXCT-OD Wireless Outdoor Sensor (referred to as the Sensor) brings the convenience of wireless technology to the outdoors. Weatherized security protection for an outdoor environment. Great for sheds, barns, garages, pool gates, fences, and rural mailbox (notifications). Can be painted. COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION Cover and rear tamper detection. Operating Environment: 40 to +66C ( 40 to +150F) at RH of 100% (UL: Rated at RH of 85%). Meets NEMA4X water protection. Sensor: 4-3/8 x 2-1/16 x 1-9/16 Magnet: 4-1/16 x 15/16 x 1-7/32 with spacer. Maximum Magnet Gap: Wood 1.9 in., Steel: 1.4 in. For extra wide gaps use the 7945-2GY external contact. (Always check installation to ensure there are no false alarms due to gap spacing.) Installing / Replacing the Batteries IMPORTANT:
Always change both batteries. Do not mix weak batteries with new batteries. Use two (2) lithium 1.5VDC AA cells. (For best life, use Eveready's Energizer Ultimate LITHIUM AA batteries.) Alkaline batteries may be used but the battery life and temperature range will be reduced. OBSERVE BATTERY POLARITY. Battery Replacement:
1. Remove cover screw and swing Sensor to remove from Sensor Mounting Plate. 2. Use screwdriver in any pivot point and pry Sealing Cover off. Replace batteries. 3. Orient the Sealing Cover so the screw hole lines up with the screw hole in the sensor cover, and press to close. 4. Engage Sensor tabs into mating holes in Sensor Mounting Plate and swing closed. Secure with cover screw. Mounting Guidelines Before mounting the Sensor permanently, conduct a sensor test
(see control panels instructions) to verify adequate signal strength. Reorient or relocate if necessary. This device is intended for vertical surfaces (to be mounted at a sufficient height) where snow, ice and water buildup will not interfere with its operation. Before final mounting, ensure water protection by ALWAYS adding silicone caulk to surround the rubber wire seal on the Sealing Cover. Mount the Magnet on the magnet sensing side of the Sensor as identified by the side ribs on the Sensor. Mount the Sensor on a stationary surface, and mount the Magnet on the moveable surface. Mount the Magnet parallel with the Sensor. Use the Magnet Spacer where necessary to make the Magnet top near level with the Sensor top. When used on wooden sheds and barns, it is recommended to mount the sensor and magnet on the inside of the structure when possible. Use screws suitable for the material being fastened to. UL: When mounting on curved surfaces, the Sensor and Magnet must be fastened by both strap ties and screws. Tamper Protection:
The tamper switch is activated when either the cover is removed, or if the sensor is detached from its mounting. In order for the tamper switch to sense if the sensor is detached from its mounting, you must secure the breakaway tab on the Sensor Mounting Plate. The SiXCT-OD has two unique zones; the Loop #1 is for a wired closed circuit contact loop and Loop #2 is for the built-in reed switch (used in conjunction with a magnet). Either or both zones may be used. A built-in tamper switch is activated when the cover is removed, or if the Sensor is detached from its mounting. FLAT SURFACES Curved Surfaces:
Suggested mounting hardware such as the strap ties and cable ties are not supplied. Mount using self locking stainless steel strap ties. Self Locking Stainless Steel Strap Tie CURVED SURFACES Alternately you can use extra heavy duty Nylon 6/6 UV and Temperature Rated cable ties (0.5 inch wide). If desired you may use screws in addition to the ties. ROUTING EXTERNAL WIRING Optional for use with external closed contact switches, such as the Honeywell Home N7945-2GY:
Note: Use minimum of 22AWG jacketed cable. Loop 1 = NORMALLY CLOSED 'Hardwire Contact'. A form C (SPDT) contact (such as the 7945-
2GY) must be used with all 3 wires connected. A 2-wire Normally Closed contact can be used, but a Form C contact is recommended to provide the best RF immunity against false alarms, and maximum stability in extremely cold environments. UL: Maximum wire length cannot exceed 3 feet. 1. Strip cable jacket back 4-inches to allow enough slack to remove Sealing Cover when changing batteries. 2. Pass cable through the access hole in Sensor Mounting Plate. Use cable notch on mounting plate to pass jacketed portion of cable through. Then attach the Sensor Mounting Plate. 3. Route cable to the external contact switch and fasten at intervals to secure cable. batteries. 4. Remove the Sealing Cover and thread wires through the rubber wire seal. If installed, REMOVE ANY BATTERIES. 5. Connect wires to terminal block in battery chamber, then INSTALL the 6. Replace the Sealing Cover. (Note, orient the cover so the screw hole lines up with the screw hole in the sensor cover, and press to close.) Apply silicone caulking to rubber wire seal. 7. Engage Sensor tabs into Sensor Mounting Plate mating holes and swing closed. Secure with cover screw. Recommended Paints:
Krylon "Fusion for Plastic"
Rust-Oleum "Plastic"
Dupli-Color "Vinyl & Fabric Coating"
PAINTING THE SENSOR:
The sensor and magnet may be painted to coordinate its color with the mounting surface. Use only paints that are made for plastic and follow the manufacturers direction for preparing the plastic and applying the paint. Observe the required drying and curing times. DO NOT USE METALLIC PAINT COLORS. Enrolling the Control Panel 1. 2. The LED flashes (up to about 20 seconds*) during enrollment. Install the batteries to activate the SiXCT-OD. (Use the magnet if the batteries have already been installed, but enrollment did not complete.) Both services (Reed and Terminal Block) are enrolled in sequential (or next available) zone numbers. The device sends its unique MAC ID (Serial Number); the controller registers the device and displays the transmitter data on screen.
*NOTE: Enrollment time varies depending on the signal strength between the device and the controller. 3. When done, the LED is ON for 3 seconds. NOTE: If the device is not successfully enrolled during the enrollment period, the LED turns off and the device powers down. Activate a tamper, wired service (loop) or the reed switch to restart the enrollment process. NOTE: The transmitter's MAC number may be found on the carton, and in the Battery Chamber. IMPORTANT: Once enrolled in a system, the SiXCT-OD cannot be used with another controller until it is removed from the current controller. See the Controllers instructions for details. If mounted on curved surfaces, check that the Sensor or Magnet cannot rotate. Use mounting screws if necessary to correct this. Final Checkout Ensure the following:
All mounting hardware is secure. Exercise the door or gate and check that physical tolerances do not exceed the allowable magnet gap. Perform multiple system tests exercising the door or gate to ensure there are no false alarms.
