Enforcer® S 5368 Mini Shock Vibration Detector
2
Introduction
This mini shock detector is designed for protection against forced entry by a hammer, saw, crowbar,
etc. through walls, ceilings, windows, safes, cabinets, etc. For use in closed-circuit alarm systems, the
SS-040Q will initiate an alarm when a vibration of considerable force strikes the protected surface. A built-
in tamper switch is independently wired from the vibration detector for enhanced security.
Vibration contacts are adjustable by turning an adjustment screw to respond on any surface- glass, wood,
steel, plasterboard, or brick. Pure silver contacts with gold plating ensure years of long-term operation. Its
dust-tight ABS case is small and can be easily mounted inside with double-sided adhesive tape.

Installation and Operation
1. Remove the cover and connect one lead of
the wire from the N.C. input of the alarm to the
terminal near the opening. Connect the other
lead to the terminal of the tamper switch, as
shown below. It will trigger the alarm whenever it
is vibrated , shaken, or its cover is removed
2. If you choose not to use the tamper switch,
fasten the wire to the terminal farther from the
opening, as shown below.
It will trigger the alarm
only when it is vibrated or
shaken
NOTE: When protecting windows, the preferred installation method is to mount the detector on the frame
of the window rather than directly on the glass. This reduces the chance of false alarms resulting from
heavy vehicles passing by or from pedestrians inadvertently tapping on the window.
