Installation Sheet

IMPORTANT! If door/window sensors are included with receiver module as part of a kit, they are already factory linked. If sensors are provided separately, they will require linking to the receiver module.

Note: Lodge Watch Receiver Module is for indoor use and installation only. For outdoor installation of the receiver module, make sure to specify the Lodge Watch system in a water-tight enclosure. LW1-WT, LW2-WT, LW3-WT, LW4-WT. Door/Window sensors are only for indoor use. There are no door/window sensors available for outdoor use.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION:
The Lodge Watch is a wireless monitoring and control system designed to reduce energy waste in vacation and managed properties. This is achieved by turning off the HVAC equipment when the doors or windows are left open for more than two minutes. When a door or window is opened, a magnet separates from the wireless sensor mounted on the door or window frame. The sensor then sends a signal to the receiver module. If the door or window remain open for more than 2 minutes, the module opens the normally closed contacts, shutting off the HVAC equipment.

LW-TR DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR:
The LW-TR Door/Window Sensor is a wireless solarpowered sensor that is factory linked to the Lodge Watch receiver module and sends a wireless signal whenever a door or window opens or closes. The sensor is easy to install on door and window frames. As many as 30 LW-TR Door/Window Sensors can be used with a single Lodge Watch Receiver. Typical range is 100 feet.

MOVING PART

A. Remove the mounting bracket from the sensor.
B. Position the bracket so that it is as close to the bottom edge of the frame.
B. Position the mounting bracket and mark the two mounting screw drill points.
C. Insert the first screw loosely and level the mounting bracket.
D. Install the second screw, and then hand-tighten the first screw.
E. Snap the sensor into the mounting bracket so that the arrow on the side is facing towards the moving part.
Note: If the frame is metal, use the two-sided tape included with the kit.

PLANNING:
1. Based on your requirements, decide where to install the sensor and the magnet. For door installations, locate the sensor:
On the knob side of the door jamb, away from hinges.
At least 1 ft. above the floor to avoid damage. For window installations, make sure the location does not expose the sensor to contact with water.
2. Follow the installation and alignment requirements.

4. Install the magnet on the interior side of the moving part.
A. Remove the two-sided tape on the back of the magnet and position it so that it is centered with the sensor arrow with no more than a .25″ gap between the magnet and the sensor.
B. Mark the two mounting screw drill points and use the screws provided to secure the magnet to the surface.
Note: If the moving part is metal, use the two-sided tape attached to the magnet and make sure it is firmly secure to the surface.

5. Repeat Step 4 as many times as needed until all door/window sensors are paired.

TEST, CHECK AND STARTUP:
1. Once all sensors are properly mounted and all windows and doors are closed, place the thermostat in the continuous fan mode.
2. Open a door or window to separate the magnet from the sensor.
3. After 2 minutes, the Green Setting LED on the Relay Receiver will turn Red and the air handler will stop running.
4. Test each sensor in this manner to confirm communications with the relay receiver.

REPLACING DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR BATTERIES:
Each door/window sensor has a battery installed which is used to supplement the solar energy harvester. The battery maintains power where light levels are consistently too low. Only use a CR1225 battery replacement.

1. Remove the sensor from its mounting bracket.
2. Remove the bottom cap which is closest to the solar panel.
3. Remove the old battery and insert a new one with the positive (+) side up and slide it between the two contact terminals with your finger.
4. Replace the bottom cap and reinsert the sensor back into it’s mounting bracket making sure that the arrow on the side is facing the magnet.
WARNING: Ensure the battery is properly oriented. Improper handling of lithium batteries may result in heat generation, explosion, or fire. Dispose of old battery in a safe and proper manner. Keep away from children. If swallowed, promptly seek medical attention.
