Suggested installation of Alarm Screens for Awning Windows

When wiring for an awning window, it is recommended to bring the alarm circuit wires into one of the top corners of the window opening. That way, when the drapes or other window treatments are pulled open the screen connector plug will be less noticeable. Once this is done, attach one half of the screen connector plug to the alarm circuit wires and mount it to the window frame. The other half should be attached to the lead wire coming out of the alarm screen.

Put the alarm screen into the window and plug the screen connector together. Using a meter, carefully align the magnet so that it's adjacent to the reed switch in the screen and mount it to the window frame. Installation is now complete.

Note: If more than one window is in an opening, the alarm screens can be connected together or "daisy chained" without the need to drop another pair of wires to the opening. Simply mark the screens so that they have an addition lead coming out of the opposite corner. This enables each alarm screen to be connected to the next screen in line.
