Installation
Use the following procedure to install the ShatterPro.
1.
Choose a mounting location. Since the sound of
breaking glass travels straight out from the broken
window, the best location for mounting the sensor is
the wall opposite the window--assuming the glass to
be protected is within the sensor range and line of
sight. The ceiling and adjoining (side) walls are also
good sensor locations. A ceiling mounted sensor will
have better detection if located 6-10’ (2-3 m) back
from the glass rather than directly above the glass.

Important !
DO NOT EXCEED THE 20’ MAXIMUM
DETECTION RANGE OF THE SHATTERPRO.
While the sensor may function beyond the 20’
range, it could miss a minimum output glass-
break. Furthermore, changing conditions in the
room, such as rearranging furniture, could reduce
the range of the sensor back to 20’.

Remove the cover from the ShatterPro base. Hold the
base against the wall or ceiling at the desired mounting
location. Insert screws through the two mounting holes
in the base to attach it to the mounting surface.

the following procedure (see step 2). When the sensor is in
test mode, processing 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
tester reproduces. It is these frequencies that determine the
sensor detection range.
