1.0 Installation 

Considerations 

Mount the RF1100 on flat surfaces such as ceilings and 
walls. Mount the unit to optimize glass break detection. 
Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 for mounting examples. 

In normal residential or commercial applications, 
locate the RF1100 within 325 ft (100 m) of its assigned 
receiver. 

 

 

For best detector performance, select a 
mounting location that is: 

•

 

within 25 ft (7.6 m) of the protected 
glass 

•

 

within clear view of the protected 
glass (there is no minimum range) 

•

 

at least 6.5 ft (2 m) from the floor 

•

 

at least 3.3 ft (1 m) from forced-air 
ducts 

•

 

at least 3.3 ft (1 m) from sirens or 
bells (greater than 2 in. [5 cm] in 
diameter) 

•

 

mounted on a window frame if any 
heavy window covering is present 

 

 

 

Avoid mounting the detector: 

•

 

in a corner 

•

 

on the same wall as the protected 
glass 

•

 

on free-standing posts or pillars 

•

 

in rooms with noisy equipment such as 
air compressors, bells, and power tools 

 

 

Test the detector in the desired mounting 
location before drilling mounting holes. 
Refer to Section 2.2 Testing on page 5. 

The RF1100’s maximum outside RF range is 
approximately 1000 ft (300 m).

1  Best location: where the RF1100 is most effective. 

2  Satisfactory location: where the effectiveness of the RF1100 can 

be reduced.  

3  Poor location: where the effectiveness of the RF1100 is impaired.
