Installation and Setup Guide
APPLICATION & OVERVIEW
The ELK-6040 Wireless Glass Break Sensor is designed for use with
control/transceivers that accept Elk's two-way technology; such as the
ELK-M1XRFTW. It incorporates many features designed to ensure its
reliable performance.
The 6040 listens for actual patterns of breaking glass across the full
audio band using Pattern Recognition Technology
TM
. The factory set
recognition patterns make it possible to detect the difference between
breaking glass of framed perimeter windows in a building vs. a drinking
glass breaking within a room.
The built-in two-way radio (RF) transmits alarm, supervisory, and low
battery messages to the control/receiver. Each sensor has a unique
TXID number that is enrolled into the control during installation. With its
two-way capability, the sensor listens after every transmission for a
positive acknowledgment from the control. This makes it very energy
efficient since it does not waste energy repeating transmissions unless
they are not acknowledged.
A simple hand clap test feature lets the user confirm that the sensor is
operational. A handheld glass break tester (not supplied) can be used
to place the sensor into range and functional test mode.
The product is suitable for use in quiet occupied areas on a perimeter
defined zone. I
t is intended for residential indoor dwelling unit applications
and other areas approved by the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ). It
is not intended for use in industrial applications.
