Hub location/avoiding noise
The hub and other compatible
Panasonic devices use radio waves to
communicate with each other.
RFor maximum coverage and
noise-free communications, place
your hub:
– at a convenient, high, and central
location with no obstructions
between the product and hub in
an indoor environment.
– away from electronic appliances
such as TVs, radios, personal
computers, wireless devices, or
other phones.
– facing away from radio frequency
transmitters, such as external

antennas of mobile phone cell
stations. (Avoid putting the hub
on a bay window or near a
window.)
RIf the reception for a hub location is
not satisfactory, move the hub to
another location for better reception.
Environment
RKeep the product away from
electrical noise generating devices,
such as fluorescent lamps and
motors.
RThe product should be kept free
from excessive smoke, dust, high
temperature, and vibration.
RThe product should not be exposed
to direct sunlight.
RDo not place heavy objects on top of
the product.
RThe product should be kept away
from heat sources such as radiators,
cookers, etc. It should not be placed
in rooms where the temperature is
less than 0 °C or greater than 40 °C.
Damp basements should also be
avoided.
ROperating the product near electrical
appliances may cause interference.
Move away from the electrical
appliances.
RThe sensor may make false
detections in noisy locations, such
as where there is noise from metallic
blinds opening and closing, or
metallic bells of alarm clocks. Avoid
installing the sensor in these
locations.
RThe sounds of doors opening and
closing may cause false detections.
Do not install the sensor near doors.
RDo not place screens or shielding
(such as sound blocking curtains)
between the glass and sensor. This
may prevent the sensor from being
able to detect the sound of glass
breaking.
RThe product may not be able to
detect the sound of glass breaking
depending on the noise conditions of
the surrounding area.
RTo avoid false detections, do not
install the product in areas where
loud noises occur or near devices
that produce loud noise.
RRefer to “Sensor detection range” on
page 14 and install the product
within the wireless communication
range of the hub.

Registering the
sensor
This procedure is not required for
devices that were included as part of
a bundle.
Before you can use the sensor, it must
be registered to the hub.
If you purchased devices separately
(i.e., not as part of a bundle), you must
register each device to the hub.
You can register each device by using
the registration buttons or the [Home
Network] app.
Note:
RFor information about deregistering
devices, refer to the User’s Guide
(page 18).
Using registration buttons

Confirming the
usage area
Wireless communication
range
The wireless communication range of
each device in the system from the hub
is approximately 50 m indoors and
approximately 300 m outdoors.
Wireless communication may be
unreliable when the following obstacles
are located between the hub and other
devices.
RMetal doors or screens
RWalls containing aluminum-sheet
insulation
RWalls made of concrete or
corrugated iron
RDouble-pane glass windows
RMultiple walls
RWhen using each device on
separate floors or in different
buildings
Note:
RYou can check the sensor’s
communication status by pressing
MN. If the LED indicator is lit in
green or red, the sensor is
communicating properly with the
hub. If the LED indicator blinks in
red, it is out of range of the hub.
Usage area cautions
Using the sensor in the following areas
may cause deformation, malfunction, or
operational failure.
RIn direct sunlight
RAreas exposed to grease or steam,
such as kitchens
RNear fire or heating devices
RNear magnetic fields (such as near
microwaves and magnets)
RAreas subject to extreme
temperature changes, such as next
to air conditioners
RNear devices that emit strong radio
waves, such as mobile phones

Information about
sensor features
The sensor uses a microphone to
detect the unique sound frequencies
that are produced when glass breaks.
Please read the following information
before deciding where to install the
sensor.
Note:
RThe sensor’s features are not
designed to be used in situations
that require high reliability. We do
not recommend use of the sensor’s
features in these situations.
RPanasonic takes no responsibility for
any injury or damage caused by the
use of the sensor.
RThe sensor may make false
detections when there is noise from
metallic blinds opening and closing,
metallic bells of alarm clocks, etc.
RThe sensor is designed to detect the
sound of glass breaking as a result
of an impact. It will not detect other
types of breaks, such as when glass
is cut or removed.
RIf the sensor malfunctions, is out of
range, or if its battery power is too
low, the hub sounds an alert, the
hub’s indicator flashes, and a
message is displayed by the [Home
Network] app. You can cancel the
alert temporarily by pressing the
hub’s MWi-Fi SETUPN button. When
you have remedied the situation
(e.g., moved the sensor closer to the
hub, replaced the battery, etc.), the
alert will not sound again.

The sensor detection range varies
depending on position of the sensitivity
switch (MHIGHN/MLOWN).
Note:
RInstall the sensor in the same room
as the window that you want to
detect. Walls or other obstacles

Wall mounting
There are two methods for wall
mounting the sensor. To mount the
sensor flat against the wall, use the
rear cover. To mount the sensor so that
it faces 45° to the left or right, use the
wall mounting adaptor.
Mounting examples*1 of the rear
cover and wall mounting adaptor

*1 View of looking from above.
Note:
RMount the sensor on the stable
location where the sensor can be
adequately supported when
mounting.
RDo not mount the sensor on a soft
material. It may fall down, break or
cause injury.
RDo not mount the sensor on the
following places: gypsum board,
ALC (autoclaved lightweight cellular
concrete), concrete block, plywood
less than 25.4 mm thick, etc.
RInstall the sensor opposite from the
window that you want to monitor for
glass breaks. Do not install the
sensor on the same wall as the
window.
RInstall the sensor such that there are
no obstacles between the sensor
and the window that may block the
sound of glass breaking.
RAmbient noise, such as the sound of
tableware, glass, or metal objects
contacting each other, explosive
noises, children’s voices, howling of
dogs, etc., may cause false
detections. False detections may
occur when the sensor is armed if it
is installed in a kitchen, garage,
utility room, stairwell, bathroom, etc.
RDo not install the sensor near an air
compressor, as the air pressure
generated may cause false
detections.
RDo not install the sensor where
breezes or wind from a fan may
blow on the sensor, as this may
cause false detections or prevent
the sensor from detecting the sound
of glass breaking.
RFalse detections may occur and
battery life may be drastically
reduced if devices that produce
continuous sound (TVs, music
players or speakers, musical
instruments, etc.) are located near
the sensor.
