Product- and Application Description
The door/window contact wave AP 260 (Diagram A) is a
surface-mounted device with an integrated radio trans-
mitter which detects and reports the opening and closing
of doors or windows. In addition to the reed contact inte-
grated in the radio-controlled sensor (A3) which is oper-
ated
by the magnet (A4) attached to the door or window, it
is possible to connect one or several external door/
window contacts in series to the internal reed contact.

The door/window contact is supplied with power via a
lithium battery (1/2 AA 3.6V)
which is supplied with the
device.
This battery is rated so that it is only necessary to
replace it approx.
every 5 years, even with up to 50
changes in the switching state per day. If the battery has
to be replaced, this is indicated by the LED (A1) flashing
every 10 s. The battery must then be replaced within a
month.
The commissioning of the door/window contact is carried
out, without any additional tool, via a push button located
at the front of the device (A2).
The door/window contact wave AP 260 has two different
operation modes:
Normal function
Reporting the opening or closing of doors or windows
Reporting the battery status every 24 hours
Special function
Establishing connections with other radio- controlled
components
Deleting connections with other radio-controlled com-
ponents
Notice
This device is not intended for use in professional
alarm systems. The manufacturer or supplier therefore
does not accept liability for any loss of property in-
curred during the use of this product.
Operation
After mounting and commissioning the door/window con-
tact wave, the new status will be sent each times the
door or window is opened and closed. Furthermore, for
immediate sending on a change of status, the current
status of the contact is sent cyclically by radio with a
repetition frequency of approx. 15 minutes. After com-
missioning or a reset of the device (e.g. after a battery
change), the door/window contact wave begins after
about 15 minutes with the cyclical sending of the current
contact status. The radio telegram with the battery status
will be sent approx. 1 minute after commissioning and be
repeated approx. every 24 hours. To increase transfer
security each status will be sent twice with an interval of
one second between transmissions.
The transmission of a radio telegram will be indicated by
the LED (A1) coming on briefly.
