FG-1625TAS Glassbreak Detector Supplemental Information
1. General Information
The FG-1625TAS glassbreak detector senses the sound
of breaking plate, tempered, laminated, wired, coated
and sealed insulating glass.
This product has a wire mesh disc located in front of the
microphone and in plain view. Any attempt to sabotage
the microphone will dislodge or damage the disc and
provide a visual indication of tampering.
2. Choosing Mounting Location
The preferred mounting location for the device is on a
wall or ceiling, opposite the protected glass.
For the best detector performance, select a mounting
location that is:
•
within 7.6 m (25 feet) of the protected glass;
•
within clear view of the protected glass;
•
at least 2 m (6.5 feet) from the floor;
•
at least 1 m (3.3 feet) from forced air ducts;
•
at least 1 m (3.3 feet) from sirens or bells greater
than 5 cm (2 inches) in diameter.
•
between the protected glass and any heavy
window coverings that may be present.
Alternatively, when heavy window coverings are
present, the detector can be mounted on the frame
of the window.
Avoid mounting the detector on the same wall as the
protected glass, on free-standing posts or pillars, or in
rooms with noisy equipment (air compressors, bells,
power tools, etc.), if this equipment is operated when
the detector is armed.
3. Testing Mounting Location With 9V Battery
You may test the detector in the desired mounting
location before drilling/wiring. If the 9V battery cannot
supply sufficient power, the detector will not operate
and the red and green LEDs will flash on/off.
Follow the procedure described in “Testing the
Detector” (next column) to confirm proper operation.
4. Configuring Sensitivity (Range)
DIP switches SENS1 and SENS2 set detector
sensitivity (range), as shown:
SENSITIVITY RANGE
* SENS1
SENS2
MAX
7.6m (25 ft)
OFF OFF
MEDIUM
4.6m (15 ft)
ON OFF
LOW
3m (10 ft)
OFF ON
LOWEST
1.5m (5 ft)
ON ON
*
Sensitivity must be set to match the distance between
the detector and the protected glass, as verified using
the FG-701 Glassbreak Simulator.
5. Configuring LED Switch
The LATCH and LED DIP switches determine LED
indicator operation.

6. Enabling Optional Rear Tamper
The FG-1625TAS is equipped with a combination
normally-closed (NC) cover and wall tamper switches.
Each unit is shipped with the cover tamper operational,
and the wall tamper disabled.
To enable the rear tamper, remove the plastic tab on the
back of the detector, using needle-nose pliers. The wall
tamper arm will then extend through the hole. Proceed
with the following mounting instructions to install the wall
tamper screw.
7. Mounting the Detector
NOTE: If ceiling mounted, the end with the hole
(micro-phone end) should face the glass being
protected.
1. If using optional Wall Tamper: Mark the
mounting location for the wall tamper screw
based on the final location of the detector.
Then, install the wall tamper screw so that it will
just make contact with the bottom of the tamper
cavity when the unit is mounted. Use a flat head
4.2 mm or 4.8 mm screw (#8 or #10).
2. Position the unit over the wall tamper screw (if
used), then mark the mounting screw and wire
openings. If required by the location, install wall
anchors for the mounting screws.
3.
Secure the unit to the wall or ceiling, oriented so
the microphone has the best line of sight to the
protected glass.
8. Wiring the Detector
Refer to the wiring diagrams (page 1) to select the
appropriate wiring configuration.
9. Testing the Detector
The detector should be tested at least once each year.
Test the detector with the FG-701 Glassbreak Simulator.
The model FG-700 Glassbreak Simulator can also be
used if it is set for the TEMPered glass sound. Other
simulators will not give accurate indication of range.
To enter Test Mode manually:
1. Open the front cover.
2. Use a screwdriver to short the Test Mode pads
on the PC board (see diagram on next page).
3. Close the front cover.
The detector’s green LED blinks approximately once per
second to indicate that it has entered Test Mode.
To enter the Test Mode with the FG-701:
1. Stand within 4.6 m (15 feet) of the detector.
2. Switch the FG-701 to ACTIVATE and MANual
modes.
3. Point the front speaker of the glassbreak
simulator towards the detector. Press the red
START button to send a short activation code.
When the detector enters Test Mode, the green LED
on the detector flashes about once per second. If the
green LED does not flash, move closer to the detector
and repeat the procedure.
Testing the Detector (flex and audio signals):
To test the FG-1625TAS, do the following:
1. Place the detector in Test Mode.
2. Set the FG-701 switches to the TEST and FLEX
positions.
3. Position the FG-701 near the farthest point of
the protected glass, and point the speaker
directly at the detector. If window coverings are
present, close them fully and hold the FG-701
between the coverings and the protected glass.
4. Press the red START button. The simulator
clicks on and starts an 8-second armed period.
5. Generate a flex signal by carefully striking the
glass with a cushioned tool. The FG-701
responds with a burst of glassbreak audio.
If the detector receives both the flex and audio signals
properly, its red Alarm LED lights. (Red Alarm LED
does not latch in Test Mode).
Testing the Detector (audio signals only):
The FG-701 can also be used to test the detector’s
ability to receive audio signals only. See the FG-701
Operating Instructions for additional information. When
it receives the audio signal, the detector flickers its
green Event LED.
Exiting Test Mode:
When you have finished testing, exit Test Mode by
following the same procedure used to enter Test Mode.
The FG-1625TAS will automatically exit Test Mode five
minutes after the last event is detected.
10. LED Indicators
The detector is equipped with two LEDs: a green Event
LED and a red Alarm LED. When the LEDs are
enabled, they light in a variety of patterns to convey the
detector’s operational status. The following table
summarizes the LED messages.

11. Cover Screw
The front cover can be secured after installation. To do
so, remove the cover breakout flash and secure the front
cover with a 2.9 mm x 6.0 mm (#4 x ¼”) screw.
12. Remote LED Enable/Disable Mode
The detector’s Remote LED Enable/Disable Mode allows
you to enable or disable the detector’s LEDs with the
FG-701 Glassbreak Simulator.
To enable or disable the LEDs with the FG-701
Activation Code:
1. Set LED switch, S4 position 4, to off.
2. Enter Test Mode, and then exit Test Mode.
3. Within two (2) seconds, enter Test Mode
again; this changes LED enable/disable status.
4. Clap your hands to test the LEDs. If enabled,
the green LED will flicker. If disabled, the
green LED will remain off.
