A December 2001 8 3 9 4 g 0 9 b .d s f Installation Instructions Product Summary The Learn Mode Shock Sensor has the following three main functions: ❑ To detect the vibrations made by an intruder trying to break a window or door. ❑ To detect a window or door opening. ❑ To detect tamper situations, such as an intruder remov- ing the sensor cover. Vibrations cause a momentary open circuit in the shock element of the sensor. The circuit closes again when the vibration stops. The sensor microcontroller "sees" the open/close action as a pulse, causing the sensor to transmit an alarm signal. The sensor has two different detection modes: ❑ Gross Attack - detect a violent blow sufficient in length to trip sensor. ❑ Pulse Count - detect a sufficient number of less violent blows (rapping or tapping). The sensor includes an internal magnetic reed switch that must be disabled if it is not used. A cover tamper provides additional security if an intruder tries to disable or damage the sensor.

Shock Sensor Main Components Installation Guidelines ❑ Learn the sensor before adjusting the shock sensitivity. The sensor is shipped with the reed switch enabled and open, and this is how it must be learned. ❑ Before permanently mounting the sensor, test it at the intended location to make sure that the panel can receive sensor signal transmissions. The sensor is an RF device and there may be blind or non-operational locations within the installation. Normally, these can be overcome by moving the sensor or receiver. ❑ Always mount the shock sensor so that the detector is on the frame and not on glass, solid, or hollow-core doors. See Figure 2 for mounting locations. Shock Sensor Wr… ‡vphyÃTˆ…shprÃH‚ˆ‡vt Shock Sensor Shock Sensor C‚…v“‚‡hyÃAyh‡ÃTˆ…shprÃH‚ˆ‡vt 8 3 9 4 g 1 0 b .d s f Shock Sensor Figure 2. Mounting Options for Door/Window Styles ❑ Mount the sensor in a location where the structure can transmit vibrations to the sensor. ❑ The sensor can be mounted on a vertical surface or on a horizontal (flat) surface. ❑ Make sure the window fits snugly in the frame and doesn't move or rattle. ❑ Hold the sensor against the frame to make sure the sensor base fits on the surface area of the frame and doesn't extend over the surface edges. Shock Sensor Orientation There are two types of shock sensor mounting orientations; on a vertical surface or on a horizontal surface (sill or ledge). On a vertical surface, there are two orientations (see Figure 3). Note On a vertical surface, the shock sensor element must always be oriented with its screw terminals down, or the writing on the shock element horizontal. 1
