RODUCT SUMMARY
The Glassbreak sensor provides 360°
coverage. It can be mounted on the ceiling,
the opposite wall, or adjoining walls. It has
a range of up to 6 m for glass panes 0.3 m x
0.6 m or larger.
The maximum detection range is 6 m for
plate, tempered, laminated and wired glass.
Figure ! shows the optimum performance
zone of the glassbreak sensor. Coverage is
measured from sensor 1, to the point on the
glass farthest from the sensor (distance D
<
6 m). The optimum performance zone is
-
distance D (perpendicular distance between
sensor and pane) in either direction on the
glass. For armour-coated glass, the
maximum detection range is 3.65 m.
See Specifications for recommended glass
thickness.
<
ShatterPro may not consistently detect
cracks in glass, or bullets that break through
the glass. Glassbreak sensors should always
be backed up by interior protection.

NSTALLATION GUIDLELINES
For best detection, avoid installing in
rooms with lined, insulating, or sound
deadening curtains or rooms with closed
wooden window shutters inside.
Don't use near an air compressor. A blast
of compressed air may cause a false alarm.
Avoid stairwells, glass booths, and all
rooms smaller than 3 m x 3 m.
The Pattern Recognition Technology™ of
the ShatterPro ignores most false alarm
sounds. However, some sounds can duplicate
the glassbreak pattern the ShatterPro detects,
so the ShatterPro works best in rooms with
only moderate noise. Avoid rooms where
white noise, such as a fan, is present. Avoid
rooms with noisy areas or multiple noise
sources such as small kitchens or bathrooms,
garages, etc.
<
For glassbreak protection, where
ShatterPro is not appropriate, use shock
sensors on the windows or windowframes.
Avoid adding (learning) the sensor into 24-
hour sensor groups, where the sensor is
armed even when the room is in use. Like a
motion detector, a glassbreak sensor may be
tripped when occupants are in the protected
area. Adding the ShatterPro to a perimeter
sensor group, which is armed only when the
perimeter doors and windows are armed,
helps to prevent false alarms.
Do not install in humid rooms. The
ShatterPro is not hermetically sealed. Excess
moisture on the circuit board can eventually
cause an electrical short and possibly a false
alarm.
The sensor can be mounted as close as
1 m from the glass.

NSTALLATION
Use the following procedure to install the
ShatterPro.
1. Choose a mounting location. Since the
sound of breaking glass travels straight out
from the broken window, the best location for
mounting the sensor is the wall opposite the
window-assuming the glass to be protected is
within the sensor range and line of sight. The
ceiling and adjoining (side) walls are also
good sensor locations. A ceiling mounted
sensor has better detection if located 2-3 m
back from the glass rather than directly above
the glass.
=
DO NOT EXCEED THE 6 M MAXIMUM
DETECTION RANGE OF THE
SHATTERPRO. While the sensor may
function beyond the 6 m range, it could miss a
minimum ouput glassbreak. Changing
conditions in the room, such as rearranging
furniture, could reduce the range of the sensor
back to 6 m.
2. Remove the cover from the ShatterPro.
Hold the base against the wall or ceiling at the
mounting location. Insert screws through the
two mounting holes 1 to attach it to the
mounting surface. See figure ".
,
You must be free of all static electricity
before handling the transmitter circuit board.
Touch a grounded, bare metal surface before
touching the circuit board, or wear a
grounding strap.
3. Insert two 3 V batteries as shown in figure
# and replace the cover.
4. Use the procedures in the following
sections, Testing the ShatterPro and Testing
the System, to make sure the sensor is
working properly with the panel.

ESTING THE
The Pattern Recognition Technology™ of the
ShatterPro ignores most false alarm sounds,
including glassbreak testers. The ShatterPro
must be set to test mode during the following
procedure (see step 2 below). When the
sensor is in test mode, processing of the
glassbreak pattern in the upper and lower
frequencies is disabled. The ShatterPro
listens only for the mid-range frequencies,
which the tester reproduces. These
frequencies determine the sensor detection
range.
The ShatterPro detects the breaking of
framed glass mounted in an outside wall.
Testing the sensor with unframed glass, such
as broken bottles, etc., may not trip the
sensor. Use the acoustic glassbreak test and
the following procedure to test the
ShatterPro.
1. Set the tester to tempered glass.

<
The tester has a different setting for each
type of glass. You set the tester for tempered
or laminated glass (either is correct and both
have the same range) unless you are certain
that all the glass to be protected is plate glass.
2. Hold the tester speaker directly on top of
the sensor and activate the tester. The sensor
generates an alarm and then goes into test
mode for one minute. While in test mode, the
LED on the sensor blinks continuously.
<
To extend the test mode time, activate the
tester at least once a minute.
3. Holding the tester near the surface of the
glass and behind any closed curtains or
blinds, aim the tester at the ShatterPro and
hold down the test button. See figure $.
4. Observe the LED on the sensor. If the
sensor detects the tester signal, the LED
remains on but stops blinking momentarily.
This indicates the sensor is mounted within
range and is working properly.
<
If the sensor LED blinks continuously
when the test button is pressed, the sensor
does not detect the tester signal. Replace the
tester battery if you suspect it is not producing
a strong signal. If you are certain that the
tester signal is strong, reposition the sensor
closer to the window and retest. Add more
sensors if necessary to achieve complete
coverage.
5. The sensor automatically exits test mode if
it does not sense any signals for one minute.
T "H "
HE ANDCLAP TEST
You can test the ShatterPro without enabling
the test mode by clapping your hands loudly
under the sensor. This sound does not trip
the alarm, but the sensor LED blinks twice.
This is a signal that the sensor has power
and that the microphone and circuit board are
functioning.

DDING THE HATTER RO TO PANEL
MEMORY
The following procedure is a general
guideline for adding the sensor into panel
memory. For programming details, refer to
the panel's installation manual.
1. Trip the tamper switch on the sensor.
2. Repeat the above steps until all sensors
are added into the panel.
3. Exit program mode.

EPLACING AND DISPOSING OF LITHIUM
BATTERIES
Two Duracell 1 DL 123 A 3 V lithium batteries
power the sensor. When the system indicates
that the sensor batteries are low, replace the
batteries immediately.
