Detectors Acoustic Glass Break Detector
DESCRIPTION
AD 700 is an acoustic glass break detector giving an alarm
when glass is smashed at intruder attempts through windows,
doors and glazed walls.
The detector is based on advanced microcontroller
technology and programmed to take a lot of relevant acoustic
factors into account: the Digital Room Compensation (DRC).
This makes the detector able to distinguish between a true
glass break and other irrelevant sounds.
The detector is for indoor use.
The coverage distance is 1–9 m. The coverage angle is 165º,
which means that one detector can protect several windows
in the same room. The detector can be mounted in the ceiling
or on a wall with a free “line of sight” to the window being
protected.
AD 700 is certified according to EN 50131-2-7-1:2012, secu-
rity grade 2.
Coverage area in the acoustic room Zone 1-3
CONNECTION TO A 24-HOUR LOOP
The detector is constructed for continuous supervision and is
extra resistant to different acoustic disturbances. It will func-
tion well in most environments. However in rooms with very
high rates of disturbances as in industrial workshops and
gyms, it is recommended to test the detector for 3-4 weeks
before deciding to use it continuously. In rare cases a combi-
nation of random sounds can trigger an alarm.
SPECIAL TOOLS
In most rooms (e.g. offices) no special tools are required dur-
ing the installation. In rooms with complicated acoustics it is
recommended to use the ADT 700 tester. ADT 700 can also be
used for function test and annual service.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

Detector should be installed on a ceiling or on a wall
opposite to the glass to be protected

Clear “line-of- sight” between the “microphone” of the
detector and the glass is required

Distance between the glass and the detector should be 1-
9 m


CHECK THE SETTINGS WITH ADT 700 TESTER
If the detector is placed too far or too close from the glass, it
will not respond.
At DRC testing the LED of the detector will flash 1, 2 or 3 times
to show it is in a certain Zone. If it does not flash a better place
must be selected.
1.
Put the cover on and make sure it hooks properly into
UNDERSTANDING THE DIP SWITCH the base of the detector. Fasten the cover screw
properly.
2.
Apply power - LED will now indicate your range setting by
blinking 1-3 times.
3.
By a simple hand-clap test you can check that the micro-
phone and electronic circuit works properly. Just Set
DIP6 Audio test mode to ON state, clap your hands close
to the detector and the LED will flash.
Note: This is no indication of the sensitivity of the detec-
tor.
4.
Use ADT700 to test and calibrate the detector for opti-
mal position.
TESTING AND CALIBRATING
ADT 700 tester is a specially developed tool for calibrating and
adjusting the detector AD700 AM for optimal function in the
acoustic room –the DRC Digital Room Compensation proce-
dure. When testing the detector settings you do not need to
open it again as the tester will communicate with the detector
acoustically.
Never test the AD 700 with open lid. Make sure the lid is
fastened properly.
Caution: Do not use the ADT 700 tester in proximity to your
ears as the tester produces loud noises.

DIGITAL ROOM COMPENSATION PROCEDURE
Prepare the acoustic detector for DRC by following steps. The
DIP switches inside the detector should be set as follows be-
fore testing.

If D/N and AIS line is not used, DIP2 LED shall be in Monitor
mode (OFF state)

D/N line (if used) should be in DAY mode

AIS line (if used) should be in high state
1.
Press the START button of the ADT 700 tester to put the
power on. Green LED will light.
2.
Hold the tester 0.7 to max 1.5 m from the detector and
aim the speaker at it.
PROTECTING SEVERAL WINDOWS BY ONE DETECTOR
AD 700 can protect several windows in one room if the win-
dows are within the coverage area. Make independent DRC
test for each window to be protected. Follow the procedure
above for each window. The detector shall be set to the low-
est Zone number that is the longest range from the detector.
UNDERSTANDING THE LED WHEN THE DETECTOR
IS IN OPERATION
UNDERSTANDING THE LED WHEN TESTING THE
DETECTOR
3.
Press the START button once more to initiate the DRC
mode. The LED on the detector will start to flicker.
4.
Go to the furthest distance (max. 9 m) of the glass to be
protected and aim the speaker at the detector.
5.
Press the DRC button to send a DRC signal out. Make this
2-10 times from different angles of the protection area
for optimal capability.

The LED will flash confirming it has received the signal.
The LED will then start to blink and flicker.

The DRC range calculated by the detector will be dis-
played as a number of pulses from 1 to 3.

In case of too weak or too strong signals outside the
compensation range (means that the detector is
placed too close or too far from the object to be pro-
tected), the detector will then not show DRC range.
6.
Press the STOP button from a distance of 0.7 tomax
1.5 m from the detector to terminate the DRC procedure.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Detector does not respond

Check the supply voltage and polarity
LED permanently on

Switch off the detector for a short period

Check if LED is in latching mode(DIP1=ON)
No alarm

Check the alarm wiring

Check the alarm loop wiring

Check the power supply voltage and polarity
D/N CONTROL (Day/Night)
The D/N makes it possible to remote control the alarm indi-
cations of the detectors and remote reset during DAY->NIGHT
transition. The D/N increases the security of the detector, as
it enables the alarm indications to be concealed in NIGHT
mode without any influence on the relay function.
If DRC range measured by the detector is different from ac-
tual DIP-switch settings, the LED will continue to blink 1-3
times showing the correct range number to be set in the de-

TIMEOUT
Both the AD 700 detector and ADT 700 tester are equipped
with a timeout feature. The AD 700 will stop the DRC mode
and the ADT 700 will switch off power if no activity has hap-
pened within 3–4 minutes.
D/N control for DIP3 = ON, DAY = High or Open, NIGHT = Low
AIS (Alarm Information System)
AIS in conjunction with D/N are used to show which of
detectors first was giving an alarm In NIGHT mode. AIS can
also re- motely enable detectors for testing by the ADT 700.

above The detectors are now in DAY mode and prepared for
receiving signals from the ADT 700 (See Function-test of the
alarm relay using ADT 700). When testing is finished the
switch B must be open. Otherwise the indication of first
alarming detector will be blocked in NIGHT mode.
This is the initial configuration. The detectors are now in DAY
mode. There is no LED indication of an alarm, but the alarm
relay will open in case of alarm. It is not possible to test the
detectors with ADT 700.
Function test of the alarm relay using the ADT 700 tester
Start the testing by pressing the start button at the ADT 700
at a distance of around 1 m from the detector. LED then starts
to flash confirming it is set in test mode. The alarm relay is

at a distance of 1m from the detector. The alarm relay will
now close. The test will otherwise end up automatically after
4 minutes.
The detectors are now in NIGHT mode. There is no indication
of an alarm. The information is stored in the Alarm memory.
In case of alarm the relay will open. It is not possible to test
the detectors with ADT 700. If the position of any DIP-switch
is changed an alarm will be triggered. The alarm relay will fol-

Function test of the alarm relay by connecting to terminal 4
(D/N)
Set DIP3=OFF (NIGHT mode) –connect +12V to terminal 4
(D/N) in the detector. If any change in the position of DIP-
switches now is done, the alarm relay will open.
Attention: If DIP1 is in OFF mode, the relay will be open for 2

Seconds only and then close. If DIP1 is in ON mode, the relay
will be open and close when the power is switched off or if
the mode is changed from DAY to NIGHT on terminal 4.
Another alternative to close the alarm relay is to switch DIP3
over to ON mode (D/N polarity).
The detectors are now back in DAY mode. If some detectors
have triggered an alarm during NIGHT mode, this will be indi-
cated by LED light. The alarm relay follows the setting of DIP1.
LED will flash on the detector that triggered the first alarm
and will shine firmly on the other alarming ones. When
switching from DAY to NIGHT –all the detectors are reset.
