Enrolling
To enroll the sensor, set your panel into program mode, refer to your specific alarm panel manual
for details on these menus. When prompted by the panel, trigger the sensor by moving the
magnet in and out of range of the sensor. The panel will beep when you have successfully learned
in a sensor.
Mounting
Use screws or cable ties to secure the contact and the magnet.
One side of the sensor is marked with 3 lines; this indicates the location of the reed switch. The
magnet should be mounted facing this side of the sensor, and it must be no further than 3 inches
from the sensor. An external contact may also be connected to the WST-242 with the supplied
wiring connector.
Installing covers
After installing the batteries, be sure to install the rubber insert and back cover to ensure a
weather resistant seal before mounting outside.
Replacing the Battery
When the battery is low a signal will be sent to the control panel. To replace the battery:
1. Detach the sensor from the back mounting plate and remove it.
2. Remove the rubber insert and replace the Lithium AA batteries with the same type.
3. Re-install the rubber insert and re-fasten the sensor to the back mounting plate.
Note: Removing the sensor from the mounting plate will trigger a zone tamper signal to the
control panel.
