Replacing the battery

Before you begin:
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions and according to local rules and regulations.
WARNING: This product contains a coin battery. If it is swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just 2 hours and can lead to death. Keep new and used batteries away from children.
If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the product, and keep it away from children. Seek immediate medical attention if you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body.

  1. Remove the device cover. See Figure 4.

  2. Wedge a flat screwdriver under the battery. See A in the following figure.

  3. Twist the screwdriver using leverage to remove the battery.

  4. Insert the battery at an angle while observing battery polarity.
    Note: When you insert the battery, the (+) symbol should be visible. See B in the following figure.
    Figure 6: Battery removal and insertionJohnson Controls PGP303 Vanishing
Door Window Magnetic Contact - Battery removal

  5. Press down on the battery until it fits into place.

  6. Close the device cover. See figure 5 C.
    Note: After restoring a low battery, the system may take up to 5 minutes to clear the trouble.

Local diagnostics test

About this task:
After power-up or closing the cover, the device automatically enters Test Mode for 15 minutes. To manually enter the devices into Test Mode refer to the Control Panel Installer Guide.

  1. Before you start the test, remove the device cover from the base. See Figure 4.
  2. Close the cover to return the tamper switch to its normal position.
  3. Momentarily open the door or window and verify the red LED blinks, indicating detection.
    After 2 seconds one of the LEDs blinks three times.
    The following table displays the received signal strength indication.
    Table 3: Signal strength indication
LED response Reception
Green LED blinks Strong
Yellow LED blinks Good
Red LED blinks Poor
No blinks No communication

Important: Reliable reception must be assured. Therefore, poor signal strength is not acceptable. If you receive a poor signal from the device, relocate it and re-test until strong signal strength is received.
Note: It is recommended to have strong signal strength and you must verify the signal strength using the control panel’s diagnostic test. For detailed Diagnostics Test instructions, refer to the control panel installer guide.
Note: Note: For UL/ULC installations, only strong signal levels are acceptable.
Note: After installation, verify the product functionality in conjunction with the compatible receivers.
