Installation Instructions
Introduction
This is the GE SlimLine Door/Window Sensor 868 GEN2 Installation
Instructions for models TX-1011-03-1, TX-1011-03-3, RF1011-03-1,
and RF1011-03-3. You can install the sensor on doors, windows, and
many other objects that open and close. The sensor transmits signals
to the control panel when a magnet mounted near the sensor is
moved away from or closer to the sensor.
Encrypted signals help secure RF communication. The sensor is
equipped with a wall and cover tamper for additional security.
Installation guidelines
Use the following installation guidelines:
• Mount the sensor on the door frame and the magnet on the
door. If the sensor is used on double doors, mount the sensor on
the least-used door and the magnet on the most-used door.
• If possible, locate sensors within 100 ft. (30 m) of the panel.
While a transmitter may have a range of 500 ft. (150 m) or more
out in the open, the environment at the installation site can
have a significant effect on transmitter range. Sometimes a
change in sensor location can help overcome adverse wireless
conditions.
• Make sure the alignment arrow on the magnet points to the
alignment mark on the sensor (Figure
• Place sensors at least 4.7 in. (12 cm) above the floor to avoid
damaging them.
• Avoid mounting sensors in areas where they will be exposed to
moisture or where the sensor operating temperature range of 0
to 120°F (0 to 49°C) will be exceeded.
• If possible, mount directly to a stud. If a stud is not available, use
plastic anchors.
• Remove internal reed switches not in use.
Materials needed
You will need the following tools and materials:
• Two #6 x 1.00 in. PPH (Phillips pan head) screws and two plastic
anchors for mounting the sensor (included);
• Two #6 x 0.625 in. PPH screws for mounting the magnet
(included);
• One #4 x 0.250 in. PPH screw to secure the sensor cover to the
sensor base (included); and
• Phillips screwdriver.
Programming
The following steps describe the general guidelines for programming
(learning) the sensor into panel memory. Refer to your panel docu-
mentation for complete programming details.
1.
To remove the sensor cover, press a small screwdriver into the
slot on the end of the sensor (
cover.
2.
If required, insert the battery into the battery holder, observing
correct polarity.

battery.
3.
Set the panel to program mode.
4.
Proceed to the Learn Sensors menu.
5.
Press and release the tamper switch on the sensor until the
panel responds.
6.
Select the appropriate sensor group and sensor number.
7.
Exit the program mode.
Verify programming and RF communication
Before mounting the sensor, you need to verify that the sensor
mounting location provides good RF communication to the panel.
To verify, do the following:
1.
Put the panel/receiver into sensor test mode.
2.
Take the sensor to the mounting location.
