Installation
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 will have
better detection if located 6' - 10' (2 m - 3 m) back from
the glass rather than directly above the glass.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT EXCEED THE 20' MAXIMUM
DETECTION RANGE OF THE
SHATTERPRO.
While the sensor may
function beyond the 20' range it could miss a
minimum output glassbreak. Furthermore,
changing conditions in the room, such as
rearranging furniture, could reduce the range
of the sensor back to 20'.
2. Remove the cover from the ShatterPro base. Hold the
base against the wall or ceiling at the desired mounting
location. Insert screws through the two mounting holes
in the base to attach it to the mounting surface.
Caution:
You must be free of 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 4 and
replace the cover.
4. Use the procedures in the following sections;
“Testing
the ShatterPro
” and “Testing the System” on page 3 to
make sure the sensor is working properly with the panel.

Battery Installation
Testing the ShatterPro
Pattern Recognition Technology™ of the ShatterPro ignores
most false alarm sounds, including glassbreak testers, so
the ShatterPro must be set to “test mode” during the
following procedure (see step 2). When the sensor is in test
mode, processing of the glassbreak pattern in the upper and
lower frequencies is disabled. The ShatterPro is then
listening only for the mid-range frequencies, which the tester
reproduces. It is these frequencies that determine the sensor
detection range.
Figure 5:
Testing the ShatterPro
The ShatterPro is designed to detect 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 hand-held tester and the following
procedure to test the ShatterPro.
1.
Set the tester to “tempered glass.”
The hand-held tester has a different setting for each
type of glass. You should always 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.
