Sash Magnet
Press the iON 5800 MICRA transmitter's corresponding
magnet into the cavity now drilled into the sash,
making sure to position the iON icons to point in the
same direction.
NOTE: This point is essential to
the systems proper operation.
Measure 3" down from the inside top corner of the
mainframe and mark the center point for the hole the
iON 5800 MICRA transmitter will be inserted into.
Place a corresponding mark also on the sash insert that
will be used in this position.

Installation Instructions
For use with QED control panels ONLY!
GENERAL INFORMATION
The iON 5800 MICRA recessed transmitter is a reed switch magnetic contact
transmitter that provides concealed protection for a window. It is intended for
use only with alarm systems that support QED 5800 series devices. The
transmitter is powered by a long-life lithium battery that is easily replaceable
when a low battery is indicated by the control.
Programming the ID Number
Each iON 5800 MICRA has its own unique identification code (serial
number) permanently assigned during manufacturing.
The control unit is required to "enroll" the transmitter's ID during installation
of the alarm system. The iON 5800 MICRA response should be enrolled as "RF"
(i.e. Supervised RF) Type (mandatory for all UL installations).
Refer to the QED control unit's installation instructions for further details.
PRELIMINARY CONSlDERATlONS
Read all of this and the next section before installing the unit.
1.Select a location for the transmitter on the frame of the window.
Do not use on metal frame doors or windows.
iON 5800 MICRA TRANSMITTER
The iON 5800 MICRA transmitter will require a 3/4" diameter hole (using 
a 3/4" Forstner bit) drilled into the edge of the window frame no more 
than 1/3" deep. Its accompanying magnet will need a 3/4" diameter 
hole drilled in the side of the window sash, no more than 1/3" deep. 
BEFORE DRlLLlNG ANY HOLES, SEE ITEM 2 BELOW AND MOUNTlNG 
SECTION ON THE NEXT PAGE.
FOR VINYL SLIDING WINDOWS the preferred direction of mounting is vertical.
FOR HUNG WINDOWS the iON 5800 MICRA must be mounted horizontally 
in the window sill with the accompanying magnet mounted in the lower 
window sash. (see Step 1 - Measure & Drill in Figure 1)
2.Before drilling any holes, tape the transmitter and magnet in their 
approximate locations (with battery installed and unit together as 
described under BATTERY INSTALLATION / REPLACEMENT (see page back)
and conduct Go/No Go tests (see QED control's instructions) to verify 
adequate signal strength. Reorient or relocate the transmitter if necessary.
Make sure that no more than a 1/2" gap will be present between the faces 
of the transmitter and magnet cases when they are installed and set. Also 
make sure the 'iON' graphic on the transmitter and magnet are aligned with 
each other as per Step 3 - Sash Magnet Placement in Figure 1.
When installed, an alarm signal must be obtained before a clear space of 2" 
is reached as the window is opened.
Under no circumstances should the outer wall of the
window frame be penetrated by the Forstner bit.
Figure 1
WARNING: under no circumstances
should the outer wall of the window
frame be penetrated by the Forstner bit.
