4. Product Overview
The Smartwares SH5-TSM-A consists of two main parts: the transmitter unit and a magnetic contact. When these two parts are separated (e.g., a door opens), the transmitter sends a signal. A small button on the side of the main unit is used for pairing with your home automation system.

5. Installation and Setup
5.1. Battery Installation
- Carefully open the main transmitter unit.
- Insert the provided CR2 Lithium battery into the battery compartment, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). Refer to Figure 2 for the battery compartment location.
- Close the unit securely.
5.2. Mounting the Sensor
Choose a suitable location on a door or window frame where the main unit and the magnetic contact can be mounted parallel to each other and are in close proximity (within 1 cm) when the door/window is closed.
- Clean the mounting surface thoroughly to ensure good adhesion if using adhesive tape.
- Attach the main transmitter unit to the fixed part of the door/window frame.
- Attach the magnetic contact to the moving part of the door/window, ensuring it aligns with the main unit when closed.
- You can use the included adhesive tape for easy installation or screws for a more permanent fixture.

5.3. Pairing with a Receiver
To integrate the SH5-TSM-A with your home automation system, it must be paired with a compatible Smartwares or Homewizard receiver/controller.
- Put your Smartwares or Homewizard receiver into pairing mode. Refer to your receiver's manual for specific instructions.
- On the SH5-TSM-A transmitter, press the small pairing button (refer to Figure 1) for approximately 3 seconds. The LED indicator on the transmitter should start blinking, indicating it is in pairing mode.
- Once successfully paired, the receiver will confirm the connection (e.g., via an LED indicator or app notification).
- Test the connection by opening and closing the door/window to ensure the receiver registers the status changes.
6. Operation
Once installed and paired, the Smartwares SH5-TSM-A operates automatically. When the magnetic contact separates (door/window opens), the transmitter sends a wireless signal to the paired receiver. When the contact closes, another signal is sent. Your home automation system can then be configured to perform specific actions based on these signals, such as:
- Turning on or off lights.
- Activating an alarm or siren.
- Sending notifications to your smartphone.
The system allows you to easily adjust the duration for which the receiver remains activated after a signal is received, providing flexibility for various automation scenarios.
7. Maintenance
7.1. Battery Replacement
The SH5-TSM-A uses one CR2 Lithium battery. When the battery level is low, the device may exhibit reduced range or stop functioning. Replace the battery as follows:
- Open the main transmitter unit.
- Remove the old CR2 battery.
- Insert a new CR2 Lithium battery, observing correct polarity.
