1 General information
The Bosch Security Systems ISN-SM-xx range of seismic detectors has been the market leader in
seismic detection for more than 20 years. Bosch Security Systems detectors are designed to detect
and report any attempt to compromise the integrity of any type of high value storage unit.
Bosch Security Systems’s patented detection technology covers a wide spectrum of attack types,
and the flexibility in the design and local environmental compensation enables normal activities to
continue without creating unwanted alarms.
The ISN-SM-xx range of detectors are capable of detecting attacks using many different methods,
including tamper protection, temperature surveillance (for thermal attacks), shock detection (im-
pacts on the detector or monitored surface), access times (automatic or manual access without
creating an alarm, controlled via the intruder panel), and integration alarms (low level frequencies
detected over a longer period of time).
The critical component of all ISN-SM-xx seismic detectors is a patented bimorph sensor that pro-
vides unrivalled detection, unwanted alarm immunity and reliability. ISN-SM-xx detectors are com-
patible with most intruder systems but peak performance is achieved when the detectors are con-
nected to the Bosch Security Systems SPC panel. See Section 9 Interface to SPC Panel/System
for more information.
Detection of an attack is primarily achieved by monitoring the surfaces of the protective enclosure
and detecting any vibrations that are carried through the structure. Vibration signals are evaluated
based on amplitude (signal strength), frequency, and duration to differentiate between an attack
and general background signals. This patented technology enables swift and reliable detection of
any attempt to gain unauthorised entry to the protected space. With several different detector op-
tions, an unrivalled range of accessories, and an extensive range of programming options, the
Bosch Security Systems ISN-SM-xx range of seismic detectors offers reliable detection and the
highest immunity to unwanted alarms.
Figure 1-1: ISN-SM-xx Seismic detectors – Attack types
The ISN-SM-xx range of seismic detectors operate at maximum efficiency on steel or con-
crete surfaces. Correct operation and performance of the detectors on other surfaces can-
not be guaranteed.

3 Installation - Detectors
It is essential that the ISN-SM-xx detectors are installed correctly to provide the optimum performance
from the detector and to ensure that the required signals from the protected surface are transmitted to
the detector.
3.1 Drill template
A drill template is provided with each detector to assist with the correct method of securing the detec-
tor to the protected surface.
Figure 3-1: ISN-SM-xx drill template
a) The cable access point for the detector is depicted by the symbol , which shows the cable ac-
cess at the top of the detector. The drill template can be turned through 90, 180 & 270⁰to have the
cable access from the top, right, bottom or left side.
There is a 1:1 scale copy of the drill template located in Appendix 1: Drill template ISN-SM-xx.
The drill templates are also available as a download from the Bosch Security Systems Seismic micro-
site on SPIAP. www.spiap.com
Before installing a detector, Bosch Security Systems recommend that you consult the
guidelines for installation in this document.
For more information, see Section 5.4 Installation guidelines.
3.2 Installation methods
This section contains useful information on the three main methods of detector installation.
•Direct installation on steel
•Indirect installation on steel
•Installation on concrete
3.3 Detector installation onto flat steel surface
Use this method to install a detector on a flat and even steel surface.
Remove all paint or grease from the steel surface to ensure that the detector has the optimum metal to
metal contact between the rear of the detector and the protected surface.
To mount the detector directly onto the steel surface, drill two holes to secure the detector, and one
hole to secure the GMXS1 test transmitter, if required.

Drill two 3.2mm Ø holes at least
6mm deep and then tap to M4
to secure the detector.
Use the ISN-SM-xx drill template (supplied with the detector) to correctly locate the drill holes for the
ISN-SM-xx detector and for the GMXS1 test transmitter.
Figure 3-2: ISN-SM-xx drill template on flat steel
3.4 Detector installation on steel using the GMXP0 mounting plate
The GMXP0 mounting plate must be used if the steel surface is uneven or the steel is reinforced. The
mounting plate can be welded or screwed to the protected surface. It is important to ensure that the
correct side is selected for the installation of the detector on to a steel surface.
GMXP0 mounting plate (weld side)
Figure 3-3: GMXP0 mounting plate
The weld symbol should be visible when weld fixing the GMXP0 mounting plate to
a steel surface.
Remove all paint or grease from the steel surface to ensure that the rear of the GMXP0 has
the optimum metal to metal contact between the mounting plate and the protected surface.
3.4.1 Weld fixing
Bosch Security Systems recommend weld fixing the GMXP0 mounting plate directly on to the clean,
paint-free area of the protected surface. This option provides the best acoustic coupling for the detec-
tion of vibration signals.
Ensure that the correct side of the mounting plate is selected for the type of fixing to the protected sur-
face.
Drill one 3.2mm Ø hole at least
6mm deep and then tap to M4 to
secure the GMXS1 test transmitter
if required.

The weld symbol should be visible when weld fixing the GMXP0 mounting plate to
a steel surface.
Before fixing the mounting plate to the protected surface, it is important to consider cable access to
the detector. If necessary, rotate the mounting plate to the correct orientation to give cable access to
the detector. When the mounting plate is welded to the protected surface it becomes a permanent fix-
ture on that surface.
The cable access symbol indicates the direction of the cable access to the detector
when the detector is secured to the mounting plate. In the orientation shown here,
cable access to the detector is at the top of the installation.
Use two fillet welds, applied to the long side of the two cut-outs, to secure the mounting plate to the
protected surface.
3.4.2 Screw fixing
If weld fixing to the protected surface is not an option, the GMXP0 mounting plate can be secured by
screw fixing to a clean, paint-free area of the protected surface.
Use the weld side of the GMXP0 when screw fixing the GMXP0 mounting plate to a steel
surface.
Ensure that the correct side of the mounting plate is selected for the type of fixing to the protected sur-
face.
The weld symbol should be visible when screw fixing the GMXP0 mounting plate to
a steel surface.
Before fixing the mounting plate to the protected surface, it is important to consider cable access to
the detector. If necessary, rotate the mounting plate to the correct orientation to give cable access to
the detector.

4. Secure the GMXP0 through the holes (A) using 2 x M4 countersunk screws (provided with
GMXP0).
5. Mount the detector on the GMXP0 using the mounting holes provided (B).
6. Mount the GMXS1 internal test transmitter on the designated location on the GMXP0 (C) and
connect to the detector.
3.4.3 Glue Fixing
If weld or screw fixing to the steel surface is not an option, the GMXP0 mounting plate can be secured
by glue fixing to a clean area of the protected surface. For improved adhesion results the surface of
the protected surface should be scratched with a form of abrasive material or tool. The recommended
option for installation is to drill or weld the GMXP0 to the protected surface and to follow the installa-
tion guides throughout this document and the associated installation sheets.

Tests have been completed using UniBond Repair Power Expoxy Permanent Adhesive – Metal. Mate-
rial Reference 2000912. Other forms of adhesive exist and local tests should be performed if any other
type of adhesive is used.
AGMXP0 mounting plate must be used when this installation option is selected.
Apply the adhesive to the drill side of the GMXP0 when glue fixing the GMXP0 mounting
plate to a steel surface.
DO NOT apply the adhesive to the rear of the detector.
Figure 3-7: GMXP0 mounting plate (drill side)
Before fixing the mounting plate to the protected surface, it is important to consider cable access to
the detector. If necessary, rotate the mounting plate to the correct orientation to give cable access to
the detector. When the mounting plate is glued to the protected surface it becomes a permanent fix-
ture on that surface.
The cable access symbol indicates the direction of the cable access to the detector
when the detector is secured to the mounting plate. In the orientation shown here,
cable access to the detector is at the top of the installation.
1. Protect the detector mounting holes (A) and the GMXS1 mounting hole (B) by placing tape
over the holes to prevent ingress of the adhesive.
2. Apply adhesive to the drill side of the GMXP0. Do not place excessive amounts of adhesive
on the plate as it will overspill onto the protected surface when the plate is applied.
3. Use clamps or tape to secure the mounting plate in position for the initial setting time. Under
normal environmental conditions, the UniBond Repair Power Expoxy Permanent Adhesive –
Metal. Material Reference 2000912 takes approximately 10 minutes to set for normal handling
and 2 hours for rough handling.
Notes
1. Carefully follow the instructions supplied with the adhesive for securing products and all health &
safety advice.
2. When using the adhesive, it is not imperative that the paint is removed prior to the adhesive being
applied but the surface should be clean.
3. Securing the GMXP0 with a ISN-SM-90 detector using adhesive will have a slight performance
issue when the detector is set for low shock sensitivity. This reduction in sensitivity should be
considered as part of the design criteria. All other detectors and their associated settings remain
unaffected by this installation method.
4. As part of any routine inspection, the mounting plates should receive special attention to ensure
that there has not been a deterioration of the adhesive material.
3.5 Indirect installation on concrete
The GMXP0 mounting plate must be used to secure a ISN-SM-xx seismic detector to a concrete sur-
face.
Use the ISN-SM-xx drill template (supplied with the detector) to correctly locate the cable access for
the detector and to locate the drill holes for the GMXP0 mounting plate detector and for the GMXS1
test transmitter (if required).

2. If the GMXS1 test transmitter is required, drill a 5mm Ø x >22mm hole (B) and insert the
GMXS1 brass expansion plug.
Do not use any other screw or expansion plug for either of these fixings.
It is essential that the GMXS1 test transmitter is secured directly to the concrete and that it
does not make contact with the GMXP0 or the detector. This is to ensure that the correct
test signal is applied to the protected surface when the GMXS1 is activated.

4.1 GMXP0 mounting plate
Figure 4-1:GMXP0 mounting plate
The GMXP0 is used to provide a secure connection between the detector and the protected sur-
face.
The GMXP0 is a double-sided metal plate suitable for welding, screwing or gluing to the protected
surface.
The GMXP0 is mandatory for installations on uneven steel, reinforced steel and concrete surfaces.
4.2 GMXS1 internal test transmitter
Figure 4-2: GMXS1 internal test transmitter
The GMXS1 internal test transmitter is installed with a detector. The GMXS1 enables a user to test
the detector from an external source, via a switched input. Testing is usually performed from the
intruder panel but it may also be performed from another source.
Activation of the GMXS1 is interpreted by the detector as a thermal lance attack as this form of at-
tack is the most difficult to detect.
The GMXS1 must be installed in the recommended location in close proximity to the seismic detec-
tor to enable a good acoustic connection between the test transmitter and the detector. The loca-
tion of the GMXS1 is determined by the drill template or the mounting plate. In both cases, the
GMXS1 is located under the cover of the ISN-SM-xx detector.
The GMXS1 may be used for both steel and concrete applications.

4.3 GMXS5 – External test transmitter
The GMXS5 external test transmitter is mounted on the exterior of the protected area to enable a
functional check of the seismic detection system by simulating an external attack. During the test
period the GMXS5 creates a series of mechanical oscillations which are transmitted to the seismic
detector(s) as structure-borne sound. If the seismic detectors are correctly spaced and configured,
then the test is detected and an alarm is triggered.
The GMXS5 has an operating radius that is directly linked with the detection radius of the detector
that is being tested. The GMXS5 is capable of testing multiple devices.
See Figure 4-8: Activate 4 detectors from a single GMXS5 for more information.
