Acoustic glass break detector with antimasking

SUGGESTED SETTINGS OF THE DETECTOR DEPENDING ON WINDOW DESIGN AND TYPE OF GLASS:
Check the window constructions and note what kind of glass is
used and especially in the pane closest to the room.
 Single glazed (float & tempered) – Set the detector at the
measured distance from the glass to the detector.
 Double glazed (float & tempered). If there are high disturb-
ances in the surroundings – set the detector at the meas-
ured distance from the glass to the detector. At normal or
low disturbances – the detector shall be set at Zone 1.

CLOSING THE DETECTOR
Insert cover hooks
into slots in the base
Close the cover
CHECK THE SETTINGS WITH ADT700 TESTER
If the detector is placed too far or too close from the glass, it
will not respond. At DRC testing the LED of the detector will
flash 1, 2 or 3 times to show it is in a certain Zone. If it does not
flash a better place must be selected.
1. Put the cover on and make sure it hooks properly into the
base of the detector.
2. Apply power – LED will now indicate your range setting by
blinking 1–3 times.
3. Use ADT700 to test and calibrate the detector for optimal
position.
TESTING AND CALIBRATING
ADT700 tester is a specially developed tool for calibrating and
adjusting the detector AGB800-AM for optimal function in the
acoustic room – the DRC Digital Room Compensation proce-
dure. When testing the detector settings you do not need to
open it again as the tester will communicate with the detector
acoustically. Never test the AGB800-AM with a cover disas-
sembled from a base. Make sure the cover is fastened properly.
Caution: Do not use the ADT700 tester in proximity to your
ears as the tester produces loud noises.
DIGITAL ROOM COMPENSATION PROCEDURE
Prepare the acoustic detector for DRC by setting the D/N line
(if used) in DAY mode – D/N line should be left open or Low.
1. Press the START button of the ADT700 tester to put the
power on. Green LED will light.
2. Hold the tester 1 to 3m from the detector and aim the
speaker at it.
3. Press the START button once more to initiate the DRC
mode. The LED on the detector will start to flicker.
4. Go to the furthest distance (max. 9m) of the glass to be
protected and aim the speaker at the detector.
5. The DRC range calculated by the detector will be dis-
played as a number of pulses from 1 to 3.

Glass type of pane inside room
Float & tampered
Float with security film
 Double glazed where the inner pane is covered with secu-
rity film – Set the detector at Zone 1 apart from the meas-
ured distance.
 Triple glazed (float & tempered) – Set the detector at Zone
1 apart from measured distance.
 Laminated glass – Set the detector at Zone 1 apart from
the measured distance.

Tighten the locking screw
Press the DRC button to send a DRC signal out. Make this 2–
10 times from different angles of the protection area for optimal
capability. The LED will flash confirming it has received the sig-
nal. The LED will then start to blink and flicker. The DRC range
calculated by the detector will be displayed as a number of
pulses from 1 to 3. In case of too weak or too strong signals
outside the compensation range (means that the detector is
placed too close or too far from the object to be protected), the
detector will then not show DRC range.
6. Press the STOP button from a distance of 1 to 3m from the
detector to terminate the DRC procedure.
If DRC range measured by the detector is different from actual
DIP-switch settings, the LED will continue to blink 1–3 times
showing the correct range number to be set in the detector.
 The LED blinks 1 time: set to Zone 1 (4–9 m)
 The LED blinks 2 times: set to Zone 2 (2–4 m)
 The LED blinks 3 times: set to Zone 3 (1–2 m)
