Wireless ShatterPro
NOTE EACH TIME THE SENSOR ALARMS IT ALSO GOES
INTO TEST MODE FOR ONE MINUTE.
Hand Clap Test
The ShatterPro® 5845 can be checked by the installer or end user while
in normal mode, simply by clapping hands loudly under the sensor.
The L D will blink twice, but the sensor will not trip. This verifies
visually that there is power to the sensor, and that the microphone and
circuit board are functioning.
The hand clap activation is only momentary, so there is no appreciable
effect on battery life.
To disable this custom test function, remove the circuit board from the
housing and clip one of the wires on the L D. The L D will no longer
be operational, but the sensor can still be tested using the transmitter
and the control panel.
Mounting Options
The Wireless ShatterPro has two mounting options:
1. Place the wireless transmitter inside the sensors base housing. For
some large transmitters, it will be necessary to remove the
transmitter board from its housing.
2. For large transmitters which will not fit into the sensor base, or for
a smaller appearance with a standard size transmitter, use the
transmitter bracket with the sensor module (5845 models only).
Remove the sensor module by depressing the catch in the center of
the housing. Snap the sensor module onto the bracket and route
the wires into the transmitter. Use the double-stick tape provided
to hold the wire in the brackets wire channel, and to hold the
transmitter to the bracket. Mount the sensor/transmitter bracket
assembly. (Note: If the transmitters mounting holes dont fit the
brackets hole pattern, the
bracket will have to be
mounted to the wall or
ceiling before attaching the
transmitter.)
ShatterPro Pre-Testing
Use the Sentrol 5709C hand-held tester to set the sensor into test
mode. Set the tester to tempered glass, hold the tester speaker directly
on top of the sensor and activate the tester. The sensor will alarm, then
it will go into test mode for one minute. When in test mode the L D on
the sensor will blink continuously. xtend the test mode time by firing
the tester at the sensor at least once a minute.
Test the Sensor
1. Holding the tester near the surface of the glass, aim the tester at
the ShatterPro and hold down the test button. If drapes or blinds
are present, test with the hand-held tester behind the closed drapes
or blinds (do not use sensor with heavy or lined drapes).
2. The 5709C tester has a different setting for each type of glass. The
tester should always be set for tempered or laminated glass (either
is correct and both have the same range) unless the installer is
certain that all the glass to be protected is plate glass.
When the L D on the sensor goes solid momentarily while the tester is
triggered, the glass is within detection range.
If the L D does not go solid, but simply continues blinking, re-position
the sensor closer to the protected windows and retest. This may require
adding additional sensors in order to achieve adequate coverage. It is
very rare that the sensor will not activate within its stated range of
coverage. Double check adequate battery strength in the hand-held
tester. A new tester battery will likely restore range.
The sensor will automatically change from test mode to normal mode
approximately one minute after it last hears the hand-held tester.
IMPORTANT ! Room acoustics can artificially extend the range of a
glassbreak sensor. The specified range of the ShatterPro has been
established for worst-case conditions. While the sensor will likely
function at additional range, it may miss a minimum output break, or
room acoustics may be changed at some future time, bringing sensor
range back into normal 20' (6m) conditions.
Do not exceed the rated range of the sensor, regardless of what the
tester shows.
How Test Mode Works
The Pattern Recognition Technology of the ShatterPro ignores most
false alarm sounds, including glassbreak testers. In order to test the
ShatterPro, a test mode is used. With the sensor in test mode, process-
ing of the glassbreak pattern in the upper and lower frequencies is
disabled. The ShatterPro is then listening only for the mid-range
frequencies, which the 5709C tester reproduces. Its the mid-range
frequencies that determine sensor range.
IN NORMAL MODE THE LED DOES NOT BLINK UNLESS
IT HEARS A LOUD SOUND. IN NORMAL MODE, THE
SHATTERPRO WILL NOT TRIP TO THE TESTER,
UNLESS THE TESTER IS HELD NEXT TO THE SENSOR.
