GENERAL INFORMATION

The

Honeywell

Ademco

5815

is

a

two-zone

Door/Window Transmitter that has its own unique serial

number. The control unit is required to "enroll" the serial

number prior to its usage in the alarm system. Refer to

the control unit's installation instructions for further

details.

Note:

During programming of the control unit,

5815 transmitters should be treated as "RF" (i.e.,

supervised RF) Type (

mandatory for UL installations

).

The 5815 provides two input loops (zones): the

first

for a

wired closed-circuit contact loop, and the

second

for its

built-in reed switch (used in conjunction with a magnet,

as described below). One or both inputs may be used.

For UL installations, a contact may not be more than 3

feet from the transmitter.

The 5815 includes a built-in cover tamper, which is

activated when the cover is removed.

MOUNTING

For proper orientation of the unit in relation to the

mounting plate, loop wiring, and/or magnet, read all of

this section before installing the unit.

The description that follows assumes that the unit will be

mounted as shown in the diagrams, with the magnet (if

used) located in one of the positions shown in Figure 2.

The unit may, however, be installed in

any

direction, as

long as the relationship of the unit to its mounting plate

and (if used) magnet is maintained.

Although the unit can be mounted directly to a surface,

we recommend that the mounting plate be used, for

ease in removing the unit for servicing should it become

necessary.

Before mounting the transmitter permanently, conduct

Go/No Go tests (see control's instructions) to verify

adequate signal strength and reorient or relocate the

transmitter if necessary.

1. Remove the transmitter's top cover

by inserting

the flat blade of a small screwdriver into the pry-off

slot at one end of the unit (see Fig. 1 for location),

and slightly twisting the blade until the cover

disengages.

IMPORTANT:

DO NOT REMOVE

the circuit board from

the back case plastic.

2. Disengage the attached mounting plate from the

case

by inserting the blade of a small screwdriver

into the locking tab release window (see Figure 1)

and pressing it against the locking tab (also shown in

Figure 1), while sliding the mounting plate upward

along the case back until free.

3. Install the mounting plate,

with its two case-

holding posts pointing up (in this example), in the

location selected as described in the control panel's

installation instructions. Use the flat-head screws

supplied.

Note:

If a wired contact loop is to be used,

with

concealed

wiring, the wire exit hole in the wall must

be located under the wire entry hole in the case as

shown in Figure 2, and no more than 1/4" in

diameter.

4. If a wired contact loop is to be used,

feed

concealed

wiring through the slot in the case back,

but do not connect to the terminal block yet. For

surface

wiring entry, two thin "breakout" areas are

provided in the case wall (see Figure 1).

5. Attach the case back to the mounting plate

by

sliding the keyhole slots in the case back down onto

the mounting plate's case holding posts. The locking

tab will click as the case back locks in place.

6.

If a reed switch is to be used,

mount a No. 5899

Magnet (obtained separately) adjacent to the reed

switch, or adjacent to the top of the case (see Figure

2). In either case, the magnet must be mounted

within one-half inch of the reed switch.

LOOP WIRING CONNECTIONS

(If used)

With the battery still not inserted, connect the contact

loop wires to the unit's loop terminals (see Figure 2).

Caution:

Make sure that the bared sections of the

loop wires do not short to the reed switch or

antenna.

The contact loop must use closed-circuit devices.

The

loop response time is a nominal 100mSec.

NOTE:

If the contact loop is not to be used, no

connection is needed across the loop terminals.
