The MCT-302 is a fully supervised PowerCode™ magnetic contact transmitter, designed
primarily for protecting doors and windows using a built-in magnetic contact that operates
in conjunction with a magnet to detect the opening and closure of a door or window. This
highly reliable top-performance wireless device is easy to install and operate in a wide
range of residential and commercial environments.
An additional hard-wired, end-of-line (EOL) protected input can be used, with normally
open (NO) and normally closed (NC) pushbuttons, sensors, contacts, switches and other
detection devices, for a variety of security and control applications. The MCT-302T offers
an additional back tamper switch for detecting removal of the device from its place to
comply with the latest European EN standards requirements.
When activated, the magnetic contact and the auxiliary input initiate an individual 24-bit
PowerCode™ ID message, which identifies it to the target receiver as a separate
transmitter. Each ID code is randomly selected from 16 million possible combinations, and
is therefore unique and virtually impossible to accidentally reproduce.
A smart anti-collision algorithm prevents signal jamming by simultaneous transmission from
multiple devices. Periodic transmission of supervision signals is used to confirm system
connectivity at all times.
These unique top quality devices are available in several optional frequencies in
compliance with European, U.S. and other international standards. Each transmitter is
powered by a standard long-life lithium battery, which is constantly monitored, with
automatic reporting to the receiver when the battery needs to be replaced.
