Brand: Sentrol
Product Type: Wireless Security Transmitter
This document provides user instructions for the Sentrol Model 4010 Single Button and Model 4011 Dual Button Pendant Transmitters.
General Information
The Sentrol Model 4010 and 4011 Pendant Transmitters are designed as portable, unsupervised wireless transmitters. They are intended for use with the Sentrol 4000 Wireless System, requiring a receiver with software code Revision J or later. These devices function within the Installer Verified operating range of the overall system.
Each transmitter is powered by a replaceable 3-volt CR2032 Lithium battery. They are designed to be unobtrusive and can be worn using an included necklace or an optional belt clip.
These transmitters comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to two conditions: (1) the device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) it must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Sentrol, Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
This manual will be provided to the end-user with each unit sold or leased in the United States.
Model 4010: Single Button Pendant Transmitter
Diagram Description
The Sentrol Model 4010 Single Button Pendant Transmitter is a compact, oval-shaped device. Key components are labeled as follows:
- Front: Features a single button and an LED indicator above it.
- Top: Includes Necklace Mounting Holes for attachment.
- Back: Contains the Battery Compartment Door, an ID Address Label (example format: 6-123456-dddd-r), a Latch Tab Slot, and a Release Tab.
- Sides/Bottom: Mounting Holes and a Belt Clip attachment point are present.
Items You Will Need
- Series 4000 Receiver with software code Revision J or later.
- Control Panel Programming Instructions.
Installation
Read all installation instructions completely before proceeding. These instructions cover installation requirements and situations to avoid for optimal performance.
Battery Installation
To install the battery:
- Rotate the battery door on the back of the unit counter-clockwise to remove it.
- Place the 3-volt CR2032 Lithium battery into the compartment, ensuring the (+) positive marking faces up.
- Replace the battery door and rotate it clockwise to secure it.
With the battery installed, press and hold the button for approximately two seconds. The LED above the button should blink once, followed by another blink approximately ten seconds later. The transmitter is now ready for programming.
Programming
The Model 4010 is pre-programmed with a unique 6-digit ID address, found on the back label and the product box. This ID is essential for programming the device into the RF Gateway Receiver and the Control panel.
During programming, you will assign the pendant to a Gateway Receiver "Device Number" and a "Key Function Option Number" from the Control's programming tables. Additionally, the last four digits of the Transmitter ID address will be programmed into the Control as a User code.
Consult the specific Control's Programming Instructions for detailed steps.
Mounting Options
The Model 4010 offers three mounting methods:
- Necklace: Use the provided necklace (or a similar style) by threading it through the channel on the top edge of the unit.
- Belt Clip: Attach the pendant to a belt by sliding it into the provided clip until it latches. Then, slide the clip onto the belt.
- Fixed Mounting: Mount the clip in a desired location using screws through its mounting holes. Slide the pendant into the mounted clip until it latches.
Testing
As an RF device, the pendant transmitter may encounter "blind" or non-operational locations. These can often be resolved by slightly repositioning the transmitter.
The transmitter is omni-directional, meaning it transmits in all directions regardless of its position or mounting. For portable use, testing should be conducted from multiple locations where the device is intended to operate to ensure proper system response.
For example, if the pendant is to be used as a "Panic" device from a bedside, test it there. If it's for use in a garden or garage, test it from those areas.
After testing, clearly communicate any identified range or transmission limits to the user. Review the pendant's functions with the user.
Show the user the ID Address Label on the back. Explain that the last four digits of this address serve as a User Pass Code, which can be used manually at the keypad for certain functions. Users may choose to remove and securely store this label.
Low Battery Indication: When the LED begins to double blink every six seconds, it indicates a low battery. The battery should be replaced promptly. A "Low Battery" message will also appear on the control keypad. ⚠️

Model 4011: Dual Button Pendant Transmitter
Diagram Description
The Sentrol Model 4011 Dual Button Pendant Transmitter is similar in design to the single button model but features two buttons on the front. Key components are labeled as follows:
- Front: Features two buttons and an LED indicator.
- Top: Includes Necklace Mounting Holes for attachment.
- Back: Contains the Battery Compartment Door, an ID Address Label (example format: 6-123456-dddd-r), a Latch Tab Slot, a Release Tab, and a RESET Plunger Switch.
- Sides/Bottom: Mounting Holes and a Belt Clip attachment point are present.
Items You Will Need
- Series 4000 Receiver with software code Revision J or later.
- Control Panel Programming Instructions.

To install the battery:
- Rotate the battery door on the back of the unit counter-clockwise to remove it.
- Place the 3-volt CR2032 Lithium battery into the compartment, ensuring the (+) positive marking faces up.
- Replace the battery door and rotate it clockwise to secure it.
With the battery installed, press and hold both buttons simultaneously for approximately one second. The red LED on the front should blink once, and then repeat every four seconds. To stop the pendant from transmitting, firmly press the RESET plunger switch with a pen tip or similar pointed item. The LED will stop blinking. The transmitter is now ready for programming.
Programming
The Model 4011 is pre-programmed with a unique 6-digit ID address, found on the back label and the product box. This ID is essential for programming the device into the RF Gateway Receiver and the Control panel.

For example, if the pendant is to be used as a "Medical" device from a bedside, test it there. If it's for use as a "Panic" device in a basement, garden, or garage, test it from those areas.
After testing, clearly communicate any identified range or transmission limits to the user. Review the pendant's functions with the user.
