HKC door sensor wiring

    I'm looking for some info on the following door sensor which is part of a HKC system. As far as I can tell (it's in an awkward location so hard to see), contacts 1,2 are for the reed, contacts 3,4 are for the tamper, and 5,6 are looped.

    I'm not sure if the sensor includes a shock sensor as well? If yes, which contacts would likely be for shock?

    TIA

    5 & 6 being looped is wiring in series the contact and the shock sensor. Wire the zone into 1 & 2 from the top and the tamer into 3 & 4 .Leave the bottom 2 looped.

    How could I separate/isolate the shock from the reed part of the sensor? i.e. I only want the alarm to activate if the door is opened, not if it receives a bang/shock.

    Take the loop on out of 5&6 and wire the zone into 1&6.

    You can easily remove the small pcb from the sensor by pushing back the tabs holding it in. Just be careful of the reed switch.

    Where would you guys recommend purchasing replacement sensors similar to above for doors, and the equivalent sensors for windows?

    Because they detect vibrations been applied to the respective window or door that they are fitted to.

    OP my apologies I missed the word 'purchasing'.
