Thanks to the curtain effect lens, it detects the movement of persons located inside its operating radius. It is also possible to connect an additional detector by cable (e.g. a sensor for shut- ters) or a magnetic contact.
  • Page 32 If a second detector is required, connected by cable, see paragraph 7.6.3. At this point, proceed with installation (paragraph 7.6.4). 7.6.3 - CONNECTING A SECOND DETECTOR (BY CABLE) Caution! – Before connecting an additional detector by cable, MAD3 must be programmed on the control unit (see paragraph 7.6.2). Connection of a magnetic contact detector (NC) or a pulse counter detector for shutters: 01.
  • Page 33 7.7 - Detector of glass breakage (MAD4) MAD4 is a detector suitable to detect glass breakage; suitable for normal glass, double glazing or security glazing. The detector is equipped with a microphone calibrated to recognise the sound of breaking glass. It contains an anti- tamper device, and a signalling led visible from the exterior.
  • Page 34 05. Close the box (fig. 47-F); 06. Perform the operation test, by producing a sudden noise in front of the detector (clapping hands or knocking two metal objects together) the led should flash briefly twice. These noises do not trigger the alarm. Caution! – If the LED does not flash after the noise test the battery may be dis- charged or the device may be faulty.
