Product Information
Specifications
- Product Name : ClareOne Recessed Door Sensor
- Model : CLR-C1-RCDW2
- Version : 240828-0100
- Frequency : 433MHz
Product Usage Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Main Sensor
- Remove the Pull Tab to install the sensor.
- Remove the clear battery insulator by pulling it away from the Main Sensor.
Step 2: Add Recessed Door/Window Sensor to Your Panel
Power up the sensor and add it to your panel following the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Step 3: Change Battery
- Turn the lid of the sensor casing to access the hardware.
- Pull out the hardware from the plastic casing to change the battery.
Step 4: Install Your Recessed Door/Window Sensor
- Drill a hole in the door/window frame for the Main Sensor.
- Insert the Main Sensor into the hole and secure it with screws.
- Add white glue (PVA) inside the hole for the Magnetic Sensor and gently tap it into place with a rubber hammer.
Ensure there is a gap between the two parts of the sensor ranging from 1mm to 5mm. Adjust if necessary.
Recessed Door/Window Sensor
- The Recessed Door/Window Sensor Invisibly installed, it sits within a door/window and its frame to provide all the information needed by the 433MHz system for security, safety, and ambiance.
- The recessed Door/Window Sensor is comprised of two parts: the larger Main Sensor and the smaller Magnetic Sensor.
- The larger Main Sensor
- The Magnetic Sensor
The installation of your Recessed Door/Window Sensor has two key steps:
- Install both parts of the recessed door/window sensor.
- Connect the recessed door/window sensor to the panel.
Prepare the Main Sensor
- Remove the Pull Tab to install the sensor.
- Remove the clear battery insulator by pulling it away from the Main Sensor.
Add Recessed Door/Window Sensor to your panel.
Getting your Recessed Door/Window Sensor up and running is as simple as
powering it up, and adding it to the panel.
Change battery
Please follow the below process.
- Turn the lid of the sensor casing to pull out the hardware from the plastic casing.
- Pulling out the hardware from the plastic casing to change the battery.
Install your Recessed Door/Window Sensor
With Main Sensor powered and activated, it is now time to inlay it within your selected door/window frame. Before beginning, it is important to select a suitable position for your Recessed Door/Window Sensor. For optimal performance, your sensor should be:
- Either installed at the top of a door/window or the side of a door/window.
- Positioned away from metal that could interfere with its magnetic functionality or wireless functions. This includes your door’s plate, handle, or lock mechanism.
- Installed in a suitable location to ensure a clear (between 1mm and 5mm) separation when the door/window is closed.
- Positioned exactly above or beside the position in which the Magnetic Sensor will be inlaid.
The rectangular areas highlighted above are optimal installation positions.
Step 1 – Drill the for Sensor main body.
Prepare the space for the Main Sensor by drilling a hole into your door/window
frame using a 20mm/0,75 inch wide drill bit (you can use a slightly larger
drill bit if needed). The hole should be 65mm/2.56 inches deep. Although
19mm/0,75 inch is stated for the drill bit size, it is advised that the drill
bit should be larger to allow
Step 2 – Drill for Magnet piece.
Drill a corresponding hole in your door/window. The hole should be 15mm deep.
As stated, the position of this hole should align exactly with the hole you
just created in the door/window frame. Again, use a 19mm wide drill bit.
Unlike the main unit, a 19mm drill bit should be used.
With your door/window and door/window frame prepared and the drill holes created, it’s now time to mount both parts of your Recessed Door/Window Sensor.
Step 3
Insert the Main Sensor into the hole you created in the door/window frame then
secure it using two screws.
Step 4
Place a small amount of white glue (PVA) inside the hole you created for
Magnetic Sensor. Then, place the sensor over and into the hole. Next, insert
it by tapping gently on it with a rubber hammer.
Step 5
The gap between the two parts of your sensor must be no less than 1mm and no
more than 5mm. If your gap is different, re-affix the Main Sensor by altering
its hole.
