Tattletale GLASS BREAK DETECTOR Quick Start Manual

GLASS BREAK
DETECTOR
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The Glass Break Detector can be placed up to 600-800ft away
from the tattletale™ base unit, depending on structures and
objects in between it and the tattletale™. It is highly sensitive to
the sound of breaking glass and has a coverage radius of 20ft for
plate, tempered and laminated glass. For armor coated glass, the
coverage radius is 12ft. The Glass Break Detector may not detect
cracks in glass, or bullets which break through the glass. Glass
Break Detectors should always be used in conjunction with
additional interior protection. The omnidirectional microphone
has a 360° detection angle. The Glass Break Detector is able to
operate normally at temperatures from -4°F to 140°F. The included
3V CR123A Lithium battery typically lasts 2 years depending on
activity and environmental conditions.
Mounting Instructions:
Because the sound of breaking glass travels
directionally out from the broken window, the best
location for mounting the Glass Break Detector is on
a wall or other vertical surface directly opposite of the
window to be protected, within the sensor's range
(12 to 20 ft depending on type of glass).
Use the provided Dual Lock Velcro to mount the Glass
Break Detector flush to the mounting surface, 6 to 10
feet high.
The Glass Break Detector may also be mounted with
1in screws, but these are not provided.
For optimal battery life, keep sensor away from
sources of sound such as speakers, televisions, noisy
kitchens, etc.
For testing instructions and directions on changing
the battery, see reverse page.

General Troubleshooting:
If there is a rapidly flashing zone light on the tattletale™
base unit that corresponds to the zone of your Glass
Break Detector you will need to check 4 areas.
1. Check that the sensor's 3V battery is above 2.9
volts. If not, replace.
2. Check that the sensor's battery hasn't been
dislodged. If it has insert the battery and press the
black RESET button.
3. Verify that the sensor is within range of the
tattletale
TM base unit.
4. There may be damage to the sensor that would
require repair or replacement.
