Test mode
To put the sensor in test mode, do the following:
1. 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.
2. Activate the tester. The sensor will alarm, then go into test
mode for one minute. In test mode, the LED will blink
continuously. To extend test time, fire the tester at the
sensor at least once a minute.
Sensor test
The sensor must be in test mode (blinking). To test the sensor,
do the following:
1. 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.
2. 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 (Figure 13 below).

3. 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
glassbreak sensor. The specified range of the sensor has been
establis hed 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.
Hand clap test
You can check the sensor while in normal mode, simply by
clapping your hands loudly under the sensor. The LED will
blink twice, but the sensor will not trip. This verifies visually that
there is power to the sensor, and that the microphone and
circuit board are functioning.
The hand clap activation is only momentary, so there is no
appreciable effect on battery life.
To disable this custom test function, remove the circuit board
from the housing and clip one of the wires on the LED. The
LED will no longer be operational, but the sensor can still be
tested using the transmitter and the control panel.
Maintenance
When installed and used properly, the sensor provides years of
service with minimal maintenance. You should test the sensor
annually to ensure proper operation.
Clean the cover with a damp (water) cloth as needed to keep it
free of dust and dirt. Always test the sensor after cleaning it.
