TRANSMITTER INSTALLATION

Note: Modifying the NEMA 4 transmitter enclosure (e.g., drilling) will void the manufacturer warranty.

  1. Strip approximately 2-inches of the outer sheath from the sensing edge cable. Then, strip approximately 1/4-inch of the black and white interior sheaths to expose the wire.
  2. Connect the sensing edge to the transmitter: IMAGE 6
    • a. Feed the stripped cable through the transmitter strain relief fitting.
    • b. Add a small service loop or zip tie to the sensing edge cable within the enclosure to prevent the cable from being pulled out of the terminal block when installed.
    • c. Remove the terminal block, insert each sensing edge wire into the two available positions (not polarity sensitive), and tighten the screws to ensure proper contact with the wire. Re-install the transmitter terminal block.
    • d. Arrange the wires inside the enclosure and tighten the strain relief fitting.
  3. Test the sensing edge by squeezing to ensure proper functionality and observe the green transmitter LED turn on for about 3 seconds.
  4. Mount the transmitter with the strain relief fitting pointing down for damp or outdoor applications.
  5. Use the provided #6 x ¾” self-drilling mounting screws in the four corner mounting holes.
  6. Install the receiver and transmitter lids.

ADDENDUM

  1. MW wireless devices with a 3-position trinary coding switch (manufactured before 4/24) are no longer available. Discontinued models include MWR12, MWR13, MWRT12, MWRTA12, MWT12, MWTA12.
  2. MW wireless devices with a 2-position binary coding switch (manufactured after 4/24) have replaced the previous version. Replacement models include MWR12B, MWR22B, MWRT12B, MWRTA12B, MWT12B, MWTA12B.
  3. To pair a trinary receiver or transmitter with a binary receiver or transmitter, use the following guidelines:
    • a. Use TABLE 3 and IMAGE 7 below to assign the coding switch address between a transmitter and a receiver.
    • b. Example 1: If a binary transmitter switch code is set to 10010101 (SW1-8), the matching trinary receiver switch is +00–0–0–0 (SW1-9). Note: Binary receiver SW9 is always set to OFF (0).
    • c. Example 2: This also applies to the reverse: If a binary receiver switch is 100101001 (SW1-9), the matching trinary transmitter switch code is set to +00–0–00– (SW1-9).
    • d. Invalid switch positions: Setting trinary SW1 to –, or trinary SW2-8 to + is invalid and won’t communicate with a transmitter or receiver that has a binary switch.
    • e. SW9 Coding:
    • The receiver SW9 should always be 0 (center position) for a trinary, and 0 (off) for a binary switch.
    • SW9 on the transmitter controls which relay on the MWR13 or MWR22B (multi-channel receiver) activates. To change relays, simply change SW9 on the transmitter.
    • If channel 1 on the MWR12 is not activating, simply move SW9 on the binary transmitter (MWT12B or MWTA12B) to another position.
    • f. Once complete, proceed to Section II, step 3.
