A – 06 Nov 12  5845GBW-OEM Glass Break Detector  Product Introduction The 5845GBW Glass Break Detector (product) is ideal for applications where hardwired acoustic sensors are impractical, listens for actual patterns of breaking glass using Pattern Recognition Technology™ across the full audio band. The factory set recognition patterns detect breaking glass of framed perimeter windows in a building vs. a drinking glass breaking within a room. This product features a 20-ft. (6 m) range from sensor to glass.  The product is suitable for use in quiet occupied areas on the perimeter loop. The sensor’s low-profile housing conceals the wireless transmitter and battery.   A simple hand clap feature lets the user confirm that the sensor is operational, or a handheld tester can be activated at close range.    This wireless Glass Break Detector complies with the ANSI/UL 639 standard for Intrusion products. It is intended for residential indoor dwelling unit applications and other areas approved by the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ). It is not intended for use in industrial applications.  This product operates in conjunction with your wireless Control Panel, providing a local indication. Refer to the panel installation instructions for revision verification details. Please contact Technical Support for any questions regarding compatibility.  About This Guide This User Guide describes how to install, the operation and maintenance of this product. The User Guide is organized as you intent to use this product with step by step instructions.  Keep this document in a handy location and refer to it when you have questions about this product and its functions and features. Reading this guide is the only way to learn how to use your product wisely and to know how to react in the event of an alarm.   Attention: Please take a few minutes to thoroughly read this guide which should be saved for future reference and passed on to any subsequent owner.   1. General Information Congratulations on purchasing your Glass Break Detector. This product is designed to be used with a Control Panel as  an intrusion signaling device.   Install the sensor on a perimeter loop armed whenever the door and window contacts are armed. Avoid 24-hour loop applications where the sensor is armed all day and all night. The false-alarm technology will be pushed to its limit in a 24-hour loop.      The sensor’s false-alarm immunity is best in rooms with only moderate noise. Some sounds can duplicate the points on the glass break pattern the sensor detects. The sensor may not consistently detect cracks in glass, or bullets which break through the glass. Glass break sensors should always be complemented with interior protection.  Parts List One Glass Break Detector One CR123 Lithium Battery Mounting Screws and Anchors User Guide   2. Mounting Guideline This  product is a member of a reliable, high-quality product family using the latest technology available. Review the information in this section to ensure you get the most out of the product.   Choosing an Installation Location The sensor must always be in direct line of sight of all windows to be protected. The sensor cannot consistently detect glass breaking around corners or in other rooms. There is no required front, back, up or down orientation.   Wall mount…  The best wall-mount location is on the opposite wall, assuming the glass to be protected is within the sensor’s range and line of sight. The adjoining wall can also be used.  Ceiling mount… Mount the sensor in a location that is in direct line of sight of the glass to be protected. However, since sound travels directionally out from a broken window, a position 8 ft. (2.4 m) into the room provides better detection.  Use the following guidelines to determine the best mounting location: o Mount the sensor at least 3.3 ft. (1 m) from the windows being protected and at least 4 ft. (1.2 m) from noise sources such as TVs, speakers, sinks, and doors. o Mount the sensor in the direct line of sight of the glass to be protected. o Mount the sensor in a suitable environment: temperature between 0 and 120°F (-18 and 50°C); and humidity between 10 and 90% non-condensing.  o Mount the sensor on a stable surface up to 25 ft. (7.6 m) from the farthest point on the glass surface.  Recommended locations and Range The sensor is omni-directional, providing 360° coverage. Coverage is measured from the sensor to the point on the glass farthest from the sensor. The sensor can be mounted as close as 3.3 ft. (1 m) from the glass. The maximum range depends on the type of glass being protected:  o Armor-coated glass - Mount sensor no more than 12 ft. (3.6 m) from the glass. o Plate, tempered, laminated, and wired glass - Mounted on the ceiling or the opposite or adjoining wall, maximum range is 25 ft. (7.6 m).

This product is sealed. The cover is not removable.   WARNING: The control panel must be placed into sensor test mode while conducting any tests. Placing the control panel into sensor test mode for all testing helps to protect against false alarms and unintentional central station reporting.  This product has three test methods:  o Wake Up Test. A hand clap should wake up the glass break detector.  o RF Communication Test.  Tests the communication path with the control panel.  o Glass Break Functional Test.  Tests the functional operation of the glass break sensing element.   Wake Up Test To test the product locally is to clap your hands loudly above the sensor and verify that the LED blinks twice. This test verifies that the product is receiving power, and the microphone and circuit board are working properly. It does not trip the sensor. The hand clap is only a momentary test, so there is no significant affect on battery life.  Note: Room acoustics can artificially extend the range of a glass-break sensor. The specified range of the sensor is set for worst-case conditions. While it may work at extended range, it can miss a minimum output break or room acoustics may change over time, bringing sensor range back into normal 2-foot (6 m) conditions. Do not exceed the rated range of the sensor, regardless of the tester results.  RF Communication Test This section provides general guidelines for testing the product with the control panel. For complete testing details, refer to the specific control panel documentation.  A. Be sure the product is normal operation. B. Set the control panel to sensor test mode to prevent an alarm signal from being sent to the central-monitoring station if you have a monitored system. C. To generate a test alarm, remove  the top cover generating a tamper alarm.  If the product is operating properly, an alarm message is sent to the control panel.  D. The control panel beeps and shows the number of RF packets received. E. At the panel, exit sensor test mode.  Glass Break Functional Test The product is designed to detect the breaking of framed glass mounted in an outside wall. Testing the sensor with unframed lass, broken bottles, etc., may not trip the sensor. The sensor typically does not trip to glass breaking in the middle of the room. In rooms where multiple sounds can reflect and duplicate the glass-break frequency pattern. The Pattern Recognition Technology of the sensor ignores most false alarm sounds, including glass break testers. To test the sensor, use test mode. Test mode disables glass break pattern processing in upper and lower frequencies. The sensor is then listening only for the mid-range frequencies that the 5709C hand-held tester reproduces. It’s the mid-range frequencies that determine sensor range.  Test Mode - To put the sensor in test mode, do the following:  A. Set the control panel to sensor test mode. B. Use the 5709C handheld tester to put the sensor into test mode. Set the tester to tempered glass and hold the tester on top of the sensor. C. Activate the tester. The sensor will alarm, then go into test mode for one minute. In test mode, the LED will blink continuously. To
UTC. All Rights Reserved. 4 P/N 0000000 – Rev. A – 06 Nov 12  extend test time, fire the tester at the sensor at least once a minute. D. The control panel will beep and display the number of RF packets received.  E. At the control panel, exit sensor test mode.   Sensor  Test Mode - To put the sensor in sensor  test mode, do the following:  A. The tester has a different setting for each type of glass. Set the tester for tempered or laminated glass unless you are certain that all the glass to be protected is plate glass. B. Hold the tester near the surface of the glass to be protected and aim the speaker at the sensor. Be sure the tester is at the point on the glass farthest from the detector. If closed drapes or curtains are present, hold the tester behind them.    Press the test button on the tester. The LED on the sensor should stay on for 4 seconds to indicate the glass is within detection range of the sensor. If the LED does not stay on for 4 seconds, move the sensor and retest.  If the sensor will not activate within its stated range of coverage, check for battery strength in the tester. A new tester battery will likely restore range. You may need to use additional sensors to achieve adequate coverage.  The sensor will automatically change from test mode to normal mode approximately one minute after it last hears the tester. In normal mode the LED does not blink unless it hears a loud sound. In normal mode, the sensor will not trip to the tester, unless the tester is held next to the sensor. Each time the sensor alarms, it also goes into test mode for one minute.  Room acoustics can artificially extend the range of a glass break sensor. The specified range of the sensor 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 change at some future time, bringing the sensor range back into normal 20 ft. (6 m) conditions. Do not exceed the rated range of the sensor, regardless of what the tester shows.   8. Defaulting the Detector This step should only be performed by a qualified service technician.  A. Remove the top cover from the product.  B. Remove the battery. C. Press the enrollment switch in the RF circuit inside the product and hold until you replace the batteries.    D. Replace the  battery  while still pressing the enrollment switch then release the switch. The RF Module LED flashes three times to signal the product is defaulted and not paired with a control panel. E. Replace the top cover.    9. Viewing Zone Event History To view event history: A. Tap the Security widget on the Home screen. B. Tap the History tab. The Zone Event History shows the event history.   10. Disabling Zones The system can bypass a zone, so the zone is not monitored when the system is armed. This is useful when a sensor is being repaired. You can only change the Bypass state of a zone when the system is disarmed.   The system continues to log the activity of bypassed zones in the Event History (see “View Zone Event History,” above).  To bypass a zone: A. With the system disarmed, tap the Security app on the Home screen. B. Tap the Turn Zone Off button for the smoke alarm. The Turn Zone Off button changes to Turn Zone On. C. When the system is disarmed, the Security Status header shows that some zones have been bypassed.   11.
