Open/Close Breaking the Flange Open Close 1.6. in. / 4 cm (flange) 0.8 in. / 2.1 cm 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. Flange removed to allow opening A - Two Screws B - One Screw / One Flange 2.8 in. /
