SiXCT Installation Guide


15 feet and clear line of sight. It also shows a strong signal...
How far is this sensor away from the panel? It is known that the battery is drained when the sensor is out of range.
I bought several Sixt PIRs about 18 months ago. Yesterday the red PIR on one turned on and stayed on continuously until the battery drained. I tried a new battery after leaving the sensor with no battery in it for 30 seconds. Same problem. Also tried deleting and reprogramming from the panel. Any ideas on how to fix it?
See my attached images for your other comments. I agree that it is convoluted. Basically you have to pry open the backplate of the magnet and screw that with the spacer into the door frame. Then snap the magnet onto the backplate. Again there are heavy duty adhesive tapes that work great as well.
Well these are all good points. The newer adhesive tape is better now but you can always screw it in. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9a48fb3e2b9feb8ef079ad984400ff78625380fe8bd09e601f91681b2526437b.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3b303e036f915592dc9a20847794b2231ae5c47d199ecd31a9c01d0a449dcc83.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c6889bb0a1f1b40f478b4536e81423346af8f25f9ef97634b97d3a34eb31f1c2.jpg
Maybe the sticky tape is good enough, the extension mounted by screws being ideal for a depth of 3/4" to the door from SIXCT. Seems its case to be possibly removable for screwing the magnet holder without extension, but also seems to have tongue and groove to extension implying glue could be used sparingly. Too difficult to tell without destroying a magnet. Tape has never been so great and have seen magnets on older stuff blasted away from doors when the customer was dragging in a xmas tree...or the crew starts ambitiously cleaning the door.
Not yet understanding the magnet and its connection with the screw base. Is something missing here? glued?
