    Installation

    Contact and magnet must be installed on the protected side of the door. Installation shown in the full PDF is for the SM-4201-LQ; other models will differ slightly. Please read the full manual before beginning.

    1. Mount the contact on the track in a safe location away from equipment interference and near where the magnet will be when the door is closed.
    2. Run the armored cable out of the way. Run wires from the alarm control panel and connect to the corresponding wires extending from the cable armor.
    3. Mount the magnet on the roll-up door so that it will trigger the contact when the door is closed. Be sure the gap between the contact and magnet does not exceed 3" (76mm).
