Select a mounting location at a height of at least
6.5 feet (2m) and no more than 20 feet (6m) from the
window you wish to protect. Ensure the sensor has
visual line-of-sight to all windows being protected.
Use a glassbreak tester to conrm operation before
permanently mounting using the mounting screws or
VHB tape.
Test the glassbreak to verify operation after

1. The sensor is in test mode for 5 minutes after
powered. When test mode is active, the LED will
ash once per second.
2. Activate the glassbreak tester near the window

for 2 seconds and an alarm signal will be sent
to the panel. If the sensor does not trip, check
the sensitivity setting or relocate the sensor and
retest.
