INSTALLING BATTERIES/LOW BATTERY
- Use CR123A batteries and match polarity with battery terminal in puck.
- If batteries are put in backwards, they will not make contact.
- Push batteries in place fully to make contact.
- Snap plastic battery holder over each battery and onto battery terminal.
- Sensor will power up automatically when batteries are installed.
LOW BATTERY
When batteries need replacing in sensor, Integrator will “chirp” and blink its
red LED.
When hooked to external system’s zone inputs (see #10 below), program what you
desire in order to indicate low battery.
WARNING: CLEAN SENSOR BRIM, LID, & LID GASKET BEFORE SCREWING LID TO
HOUSING.
REPLACE BOTH BATTERIES AT SAME TIME.
DO NOT USE RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES.
PAIRING
YOUR SYSTEM HAS BEEN PAIRED AT FACTORY. THESE DIRECTIONS APPLY WHEN PAIRING
ADDITIONAL UNITS
You can pair up to 30 pucks with an unlimited number of Integrators
- Bring sensor close to Integrator and power up both units (#4 above & #10 below).
- Push pairing button on Integrator (will stay in pairing mode 30 minutes).
- Power up sensor; press and release red (test mode) button for 1 second to send a pairing message to Integrator (see #5 below).
- Integrator will beep 3 times when paired and exit pairing mode automatically.
- Push red button for one second on sensor to exit pairing mode.
TEST MODE FOR SENSOR PUCK
Test mode allows the sensor puck to be tripped without a vehicle. This is useful when testing radio range (see #6 below) and solo installations.
- Press and HOLD button on sensor puck for 5 seconds
- The red LED will be solid and dim while waiting the 5 seconds
- Once the 5 seconds has expired, the LED will be bright red
- Test mode is activated when the button is released
- The sensor will trip itself every 15 seconds
- Test mode will be exited when button is pressed again
- Test mode will automatically be exited after 30 minutes
TESTING RANGE
Your system has a radio range of at least 350 feet or over 1000’ line-of-
sight.
To determine range in your application, test before final installation.
Radio range depends on several variables:
- How the puck is installed (in ground or above ground on post)
- Obstacles blocking radio signal, such as soil, trees, foilage, buildings, concrete, etc.
To test range:
- Put Integrator near its final installation place in the home or gate.
- You will need to confirm the Integrator is sounding (see #9 below).
- Put sensor in test range mode (see #5 above).
- Listen for Integrator to trigger. If it doesn’t, move sensor closer to Integrator.
- Be sure to test again with puck installed in ground (see #8 below).
- You may need to add a repeater inside the home (see #9 below).
SETTING SENSITIVITY
ONLY ADJUST (LOWER) SENSITIVITY IF PUTTING IN MIDDLE OF DRIVEWAY (see #8 below). IN ALL OTHER CASES USE DEFAULT.
SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT
HIGH (Default)
Detects vehicle going 5 MPH 12-14’ away 1 & 2 in OFF position|
---|---
MEDIUM
Detects vehicle going 5 MPH 6-8’ away 1 ON & 2 OFF position|
LOW
Detects vehicle going 5 MPH 2-4’ away 1 & 2 in ON position|
NOTE: HIGHEST SENSITIVITY IS WITH DIP SWITCHES IN THE OFF POSITION
NOTE: DIP SWITCH COLOR MAY VARY
INSTALLING SENSOR PUCK
The sensor puck can be installed in the driveway, in the ground, or on an immovable object (post, tree, etc.).
NOTE: SENSOR PUCK DETECTS A VEHICLE GOING 5 MPH AFTER IT PASSES. THEREFORE, IF POSSIBLE, PLACE SENSOR AT LEAST 50 FT. AWAY FROM GATE OPERATOR FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE.
ON AN OBJECT (see illustration bottom left)
- Test range (#6 above), then seat lid securely on puck with screws provided, leaving no gap between lid and puck. Do not over-tighten or strip screws.
- Find a tree, post, or other object directly beside the driveway.
- Make sure the object is IMMOVABLE or false alarms will occur.
- Use the holes on the bottom tabs to screw puck to the object.
IN THE GROUND (see illustration bottom left)
- When range has been tested (see #6 above), seat lid securely on puck with screws provided. Be careful not to strip screws with screw gun. There should be no gap between lid and puck.
- Find a spot directly beside driveway.
- Dig a hole big enough for puck and auger screws, allowing puck’s lid to be level with surface of dirt.
- Secure puck in ground with auger screws, overlapping bottom tabs of puck. If you fail to secure puck, lawn mowers, etc. will pull/suck it up.
- Pack and tamp dirt around puck, ensuring lid is clean of dirt and all debris.
IN FREE EXIT INSTALLATIONS, IF ANIMALS OR PEOPLE STEP ON SENSOR PUCK INSTALLED IN THE GROUND, IT MAY TRIGGER THE GATE TO OPEN. CONSIDER INSTALLING ON POST OR IN DRIVEWAY INSTEAD.
IN THE DRIVEWAY (see illustration bottom left)
-
When range has been tested (see #6 above), seat lid securely on puck with screws provided. Be careful not to strip screws with screw gun. There should be no gap between lid and puck.
Note: If close to cross traffic, consider turning sensitivity down (see7 above)
-
Use a 4.5″ diameter masonry hole saw to bore a hole for puck. Bore at least 2.75” deep so puck lid will be 0.25”- 0.50” below driveway surface (so it can’t be pulled up by snow plows, graters, etc.).
-
Pour loop sealant in hole, careful not to overfill, and put puck in hole.
-
Hold puck down with weight until sealant becomes firm.
-
DO NOT pour sealant over puck lid or bosses to gain access to batteries.
NOTE: SENSOR PUCK AND LID ARE KEYED. WIPE SENSOR LID, LID GASKET, AND SENSOR BRIM WITH CLEAN CLOTH AND KEY CORRECTLY BEFORE ATTACHING.
INTEGRATOR DIP SWITCHES
Dip switches control sounder and repeater mode on Integrator.
SOUNDER
Turn dip switch 1 ON to turn sounder on.
Sounder will beep 3 times when vehicle is detected. It will also “chirp” when
sensor puck batteries are low and need replacing.
REPEATER MODE
Turn dip switch 2 ON to turn Integrator into a repeater. In repeater mode, the
unit will continually receive and repeat any signal from the sensor to the
Integrator installed in the home (see #11 below). Red and blue LED will
alternately and continuously blink in repeater mode.
INSTALLING INTEGRATOR
Your system integrates seamlessly with any security/H.A. system or electric gate operator. To integrate, use the following wiring schematics as guides:
SECURITY/HOME AUTO SYSTEMS
Integrator uses 8-24 VAC or 8-30 VDC. Use security/H.A. system or gate
operator to power or use any 12VDC power supply. Cartell sells optional power
supply (Part #CW-PS).
YOU MUST ADD A SAFETY TO GATE WHEN USING CW-SYS FOR FREE EXIT.
AUTOMATIC GATE OPERATORS DUAL EXIT TERMINAL
SINGLE EXIT TERMINAL
REPEATER MODE
To increase radio range, it may be necessary to make the Integrator a
repeater.
If the signal from sensor puck is not reaching the Integrator:
- Move the sensor closer to the Integrator, and/or
- Install a repeater in the home between the sensor puck and Integrator connected to the security/home automation system.
Do the following:
1. Purchase an optional Integrator and power supply (Product CW-REP).
2. Remove enclosure cover by carefully pushing side tabs in.
3. Connect power supply to terminals 1 & 2 (no polarity).
4. Turn dip switch 2 ON (see #9 above). This puts the unit in repeater mode. The red and blue LEDs will alternately blink to indicate repeater mode. It will continually receive every signal from the sensor and transmit (repeat) it to the Integrator installed beside the main system.
5. Install repeater in a window closest to the sensor puck.
6. Turn dip switch 1 OFF to turn sounder off.
NOTE: To order repeater kit, use product code CW-REP.

OPTIONAL EXTERNAL GATE ANTENNA
In gate operator installations, antenna attached directly to Integrator will work in most cases. The only time it may not work is in a sealed metal gate operator that blocks the RF signal. If that is the case, use an optional coaxial cable and 3/8” grommet, and install antenna externally, per the following:
- Drill 3/8” hole in side or bottom of operator.
- Insert 3/8” grommet in drilled hole.
- Push male threads of cable through grommet.
- Screw antenna on male threads.
- Screw other end of cable to Integrator antenna connector.
