    Description Features
    The DCT10 supports two inputs simultaneously (reed switch & • 2-zone capabilities where each zone is independent and has its own
    universal transmitter input*). serial number: Zone 1 - one of two high-sensitivity reed switches
    (magnet included), Zone 2 - universal transmitter input* (N.O./N.C.)
    The DCT10 transmits two different serial numbers (SN), one for
    each input, which are always SN and SN+1 (i.e., 240 000 & 240 001). • Wireless range in a typical residential environment:
    - 70m (230ft) with MG5000, MG5050 and RTX3
    A switch or other security device can be connected to the • Low battery and signal transmission LED
    universal transmitter input terminals to provide wireless
    • Available in 433MHz or 868MHz

    • Dual anti-tamper switch
    • Dimensions: 12.4 cm x 4.5 cm x 3.3 cm (4.9 in x 1.8 in x 1.3 in)

    Location & Mounting Testing the Unit


    There should be at least 30 cm (1 ft) between each transmitter and 1) Perform a signal strength test before finalizing installation.

    4) Open and close the assigned door/window to verify proper
    operation.

    DCT10 Overview

    Learn Mode
    Learn Mode allows you to transmit the serial numbers of each input. To enter Learn
    Mode, open the cover and wait until the LED stops flashing.
    Input Serial Number Visual Confirmation
    Input 1 (reed switch): Press the SN The LED will flash once
    anti-tamper switch once. (e.g., 240 000) four times.

    second.

    Jumpers Magellan Receiver


    JP1 ON Reed Switch open = “zone open” signal
    closed = “zone closed” signal
    OFF Reed Switch open = “zone closed” signal
    Reed Switch closed = “zone open” signal

    JP2 ON Magellan protocol


    OFF N/A

    JP3 ON Universal Input* open = “zone open” signal


    Universal Input closed = “zone closed” signal
    OFF Universal Input open = “zone closed” signal
    Universal Input closed = “zone open” signal
    WARNINGS:
    • Do not connect an EOL resistor to the universal transmitter input.
    • Do not cut, bend or alter the antenna. Avoid mounting the door contact near or on metal as this may affect transmission.
    • After changing the jumper settings, press and hold the anti-tamper switch for two seconds in order to save the changes.
    * IMPORTANT: Cables not connected to the Universal input must be less than 3m long.

    Dual Anti-Tamper
    The DCT10 offers dual anti-tamper protection against the opening of the unit’s cover or the removal of the unit from the mounting location.
    Secure the anti-tamper pin to the wall using the supplied screw. In the case where the unit is forcibly removed, the anti-tamper pin breaks away
    from the rest of the unit, triggering a tamper alarm. If the unit is installed on a drywall surface, use a drywall anchor to secure the anti-tamper pin.

    Powering the unit


    Verify proper polarity and insert two alkaline “AAA” batteries. After inserting batteries, a power up sequence will begin (10-20 seconds) during
    which the door contact will not detect an open zone or tamper.

    Low Battery
    The DCT10 performs a battery test every 12 hours. If the voltage is below 2.3V after four consecutive battery tests (48 hrs.), the red LED will flash at
    5 second intervals and the DCT10 will transmit a low battery signal.

    Battery Replacement
    To replace batteries:

    1) Replace the old batteries with new ones.


    2) Press and release the anti-tamper switch several times.
    3) Wait 60 seconds to re-initialize the unit.
