Extend Security Monitoring to Another Hatch or Door. The LocMarine LM-MRS-KT Magnetic Security Sensor Kit is an accessory for the LTE-10 Boat Monitoring and Security Hub. Its magnetic contact detects when a monitored door, hatch, or lid is opened, while the included 30 ft connection cable helps reach an additional access point elsewhere on the vessel.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Monitor an Additional Access Point: Add magnetic-contact monitoring to a door, hatch, or lid connected to the LTE-10 security input.
-
Opening-Triggered Security Alerts: When the magnet and sensor separate, the LTE-10 can register an opening and send a security notification through its configured monitoring service.
-
30 ft Connection Cable: Provides routing flexibility when positioning the sensor away from the monitoring hub.
-
Support for Multiple Sensors: LocMarine documents connecting more than one security sensor on a boat, allowing multiple openings to be monitored with suitable wiring.
-
Moisture-Resistant Sensor: The magnetic sensor is described by LocMarine as waterproof, although the installation instructions recommend a relatively dry mounting location to reduce false alerts.
-
Simple Magnetic Contact Design: No separate keypad or local control panel is required at the protected opening.

-
Application: Doors, hatches, lids, and other compatible access points
Compatibility
- Designed for the LocMarine LTE-10 Boat Monitoring and Security Hub.
- The sensor is a wired switch, not a standalone alarm or cellular device. Remote notifications require a properly installed and configured LTE-10 monitoring system.
- Additional sensors can be incorporated according to the LTE-10 security-input wiring instructions; multiple contacts should not be represented as independently identified zones unless the system supports that configuration.
Installation & Setup
- Install one contact component on the fixed frame and the mating component on the moving door, hatch, or lid.
- Align both halves with a closed gap smaller than 1/2 in. to ensure reliable magnetic contact sensing.
- Route the 30 ft cable away from hinges, pinch points, sharp edges, and standing water.
- Connect the red sensor lead to the hub orange +5V output and the yellow return lead to the yellow security input in accordance with the LTE-10 installation manual.
- Test opening and closing the monitored access point and confirm the expected notification after setup.
