USER MANUAL SW351-MD2 SWANN

Magnetic Window Alarm SW351

SW351-MDA

White Swann smart lock device with control panel and indicator lights (no visible text or symbols beyond brand name)

Operating Instructions

Overview

Congratulations on your purchase of this stand-alone window alarm from Swann! This alarm unit is a simple, easy to install security device which will help you to protect one door or window from unwanted intrusion.

This magnetic window alarm unit can effectively protect a single window (or door) being opened, though it cannot prevent a window being broken. Thus, for more complete protection of a window, we suggest using either infrared alarm or a glass breakage alarm as a backup to the door alarm.

This package includes:

■ Magnetic Window Alarm
■ Double-Sided Mounting Tape
Operating Instructions

IMPORTANT - Read Before Installing

• Do not expose any part of the alarm unit to any sudden shocks (such as being dropped or struck).
• Do not install the alarm unit near devices which generate magnetic fields (such as microwaves).
• Do not install any the alarm unit in direct sunlight.
  • Use only alkaline batteries.
  • All components are for indoor use only. Do not install outdoors.
• Replace the batteries in the unit every six months.
• Test the alarm periodically (every 1 - 2 months and each time you change the batteries) to ensure it is working properly.
• This alarm system is designed to be, and acts as, a theft deterrent. This system, like any other, cannot offer complete protection for your home or business - it is simply an alarm system. Like all practical systems, it has limitations and it could be disabled by a skilled intruder. We suggest that you avoid relying solely on this magnetic alarm unit to protect your property, but use it as part of a comprehensive security solution. You can increase your level of protection through the use of high-quality locks, stronger doors, guards for your windows and a CCTV system and recording devices.

How it works:

The sensor is composed of two separate, equally important parts: the alarm unit itself, and the trigger. The alarm unit is the larger of the two parts, and is responsible for sounding the alarm (hence the siren). Inside the transmitter is a magnetically sensitive switch, which is held in the OFF position by the magnetic trigger.

When the trigger is moved farther than approximately 1/2" (10-15mm) away from the door sensor, the switch closes to the ON position and the alarm is triggered.

Arming and Disarming

The arming/disarming switch is located underneath the battery compartment, just above the battery slot. There are only two settings, ON and OFF. Whilst ON, the alarm will sound whenever the two parts of the alarm are separated. Whilst OFF, the alarm will not sound under any circumstances.

• To arm the sensor, simply set this switch to ON.
• To disarm the unit or stop an alarm in progress, set the switch to OFF.

Mounting

Included are two portions of double-sided tape, one for both the alarm unit and the magnetic trigger.

1. Remove the plastic cover from one side of the larger piece of double sided tape, and apply the tape to the rear side of the alarm unit.
2. Remove the plastic cover from one side of the smaller piece of mounting tape, and apply to the rear of the magnetic sensor.
3. Clean the surfaces you want to mount the alarm on using cleaning alcohol or similar. Ensure the surfaces are completely clean and dry before proceeding.
4. Remove the plastic cover from the other side of the double-sided tape, and apply one part of the alarm to the door/window you want to monitor, and the other part to the frame. Ensure that when the door/window is shut, the small black arrows on the sensor and trigger line up. They don't need to physically touch, but they should be no more that 1/5"(5mm) apart when the door/window is shut for the sensor to work correctly.

Replacing Batteries

1. Open the battery compartment on the front of the of the sensor.
2. Remove any old batteries.
3. Place four fresh alkaline LR44 batteries into the sensor. The correct orientation is shown on the base of the battery compartment.
4. Use only alkaline batteries. Do not use rechargeable batteries.
5. To test the current state of your batteries, press the TEST button, located in the battery compartment. If the Battery Indicator LED will lights up then the batteries have enough power to operate the alarm. If it does not light up or is dim, then you should replace the batteries as soon as possible.
