Put Sensor in Test Mode
1. Connect 9-volt battery to sensor for pre-testing.
2. Use double-stick tape provided to temporarily mount sensor
in desired location.
3. Use Sentrol 5709C Hand-Held Tester to put sensor into test
mode. Set tester to tempered glass and hold on top of
sensor. Activate tester this will trip sensor into test mode
for one minute. In test mode, LED will blink continuously.
To extend test time, activate tester at least once a minute.
Test the Sensor (sensor must be in test mode, blinking)
1. The 5709C tester has settings for different types of glass.
Use tempered setting if unsure of glass type.
2. Hold tester near surface of glass to be protected and aim at
sensor. Press test button.
If drapes or blinds are present, hold the tester behind the
closed drapes or blinds.
3. If LED stays on for 4 seconds, glass is within detection range
of sensor.
4. If LED does not stay on, reposition the sensor and retest.
(Verify adequate battery strength in tester.)
ShatterPro sensors are omni-directional, providing 360° coverage.
Coverage is measured from the sensor to the point on the glass
farthest from the sensor. The sensor can be mounted as close as
3.3' (1 m) from the glass.
1. Mounted on opposite wall or adjoining walls, range is 25 ft.
(7.5m) for plate, tempered, laminated and wired glass.
2. Mounted on the ceiling, maximum range is 25 ft. (7.5m) for
plate, tempered, laminated and wired glass.
3. For armor-coated glass, mount sensor no more than 12 ft.
(3.65m) from glass.
Recommended Glass Size:
Minimum 1' x 2' (0.3 m x 0.6 m) or larger
Glass thickness:
Plate: 3/32" to 1/4" (2.4 mm to 6.4 mm)
Tempered: 1/8" to 1/4" (3.2 mm to 6.4 mm)
Wired: 1/4" (6.4 mm)
Laminated: 1/8" to 1/4" (3.2 mm to 6.4 mm)
For Best Detection, Avoid Installing In:
Rooms with lined, insulating, or sound deadening drapes.
Rooms with closed wooden window shutters inside.
How Test Mode Works:
Test Mode is activated by the hand-held tester when the tester is
held directly over the microphone and set off. The sensors LED
will blink continuously for 1 minute. During this time, the
installer can test the unit using the instructions above. When the
system is armed and the ShatterPro trips to an alarm condition,
the LED will latch solid for 4 seconds and then revert back to a
1- minute test mode. At the end of 1 minute, the LED will
extinguish.
