AC-ODC Sync Outdoor Door Contact

AC-ODC is an Outdoor Contact used to detect the opening and closure of outdoor gates, entries, exits and more. The Outdoor Contact can also be placed on metal materials, while its powerful magnet can tolerate a wide gap to reduce false alarm.
The device also has the capabilities of communicating signal problems along with low battery situations. The front and back tamper switches provide tamper protection against Unauthorised device opening and removal. Yale AC ODC Sync

Battery

The Outdoor Contact uses two AA L91 Lithium batteries as its power source. Please note: ALWAYS replace batteries with the correct size and voltage.
The Outdoor Contact can detect low battery condition. When the battery voltage is low, a low battery signal will be sent to the Sync hub to notify the condition. The LED will light up when the Outdoor Contact is activated under low battery status. When the battery is exhausted, the Outdoor Contact will stop all function, the LED will flash every 4 seconds.
When changing batteries, after removing the old batteries, press the Tamper Switch twice to fully discharge before inserting new batteries.

Tamper Protection

The Outdoor Contact is protected against any attempt to open the battery cover or to detach the device from its mounting surface.
If the Outdoor Contact detects a tamper condition of battery cover opening or device removal, a tamper signal will be sent to the Sync hub to remind the user of the condition.

Supervisory Signal

The Outdoor Contact will automatically transmit Supervisory Signals periodically to the Sync hub at random intervals of 30-50 minutes.
If the Sync hub has not received the signal from the Outdoor Contact for a preset period time, the Sync hub will indicate the particular Outdoor Contact is experiencing an out-of- signal problem.

Test Mode

Under Normal Mode, press the Test Button to transmit a test signal and learning code to the Sync hub. The Outdoor Contact will also enter the Test Mode for 3 minutes.
Under Test Mode, the LED will light up whenever the Outdoor Contact is activated.
Each additional Test Button press will reset Test Mode time to 3 minutes.

Getting Started

Remove the battery cover and insert batteries to power on the device.
Put the Sync hub into Learning Mode (please refer to panel operation manual).
Use a sharp tool to press the Outdoor Contact learn button.
Refer to your Sync hub operation manual to complete the learn-in process
After the Outdoor Contact is learned-in, place the Sync hub into (Walk Test) mode, hold the Outdoor Contact in the desired location, and press the Test button to transmit test signal to Sync hub. If the Sync hub is within Outdoor Contact signal range, the panel will display Outdoor Contact information accordingly.

Replace the battery cover and proceed with mounting and installation once you are satisfied that the Outdoor Contact location functions properly.

Mounting Methods and Installation
It is recommended that the Outdoor Contact be placed on the fixed frame of door/window, and the magnet on the movable part of door/window.
The rib marks on the magnet and Outdoor Contact must align. (Figure 2)
The magnet should not be more than 3cm from the marked side of the Outdoor Contact when the door is closed.
The Outdoor Contact has a back tamper switch on its back cover. Ensure the device is positioned within the bracket so that the tamper switch spring is pressed against the breakaway area that is loosely connected to the bracket. If the Outdoor Contact is forcibly removed from the wall, the break-away areas will break off from the bracket and remain attached to the mounting surface, activating the tamper switch.

The provided mounting bracket has 3 knockouts, where the plastic is thinner and can be broken for mounting purpose. (Figure 3)
Use the mounting bracket as a template to drill holes on the wall for plugs. (Figure 4)
Push in the plugs and fix the mounting bracket on the wall with the screws.
Mount Outdoor Contact with the hooks on the back cover of the Outdoor Contact latched on the latch holes of the mounting bracket, and then push downwards to lock the hook. (Figure 5)
