International Shock Sensor Installation
Instructions
Product summary
The International Shock Sensor (model no. 60-885-43-EUR
and 60-885-11-43-EUR) have 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 removing
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.

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 on page 2 for mounting locations.
