Testing detector range [MAN (manual) mode] (continued):

1.Set the FG-701 to TEST and MAN (manual). See C.

2.Position the FG-701 near the protected glass and point the speaker directly at the glassbreak detector. Watch the green LED on the detector.

3.Press the RED button and the FG-701 will generate a burst of glassbreak audio.

Refer to the detector’s installation instructions for details of green LED function.

BATTERY ANNOUNCEMENT

When the battery is low, the simulator audio sound will be interrupted by the word "BATTERY." The battery must then be replaced.

Use only 9V alkaline batteries. Do not use carbon-zinc or rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries because they don’t have sufficient peak power capacity.

TECHNICAL NOTES

When a window is broken, many things affect the sound produced, including type of glass, glass size and thickness, type of mounting, the breaking object, and how much force is used. The sound will also be modified by absorptive or reflective surfaces in the room.

No simulator can account for all possible conditions, but the sound produced by the FG-701 is carefully designed to represent a worst-case break. The sound is a recording of a small pane of tempered glass broken in a controlled environment. The output level of the simulator is correlated with the original sound to insure an equivalent response in FlexGuard® detectors. In production, the acoustic output is factory-calibrated.

Room characteristics greatly affect the range indicated by the simulator. A room with hard surfaces will increase range, because hard surfaces reflect the sound back into the room. A room with absorbing surfaces (carpets, acoustic tiles) and absorbing materials (curtains and soft furniture) will reduce range.

Real glassbreak sound is affected in the same way as the simulator sound because it has the same frequency content and originates from the same location in the room. So the audio range indicated by the FG-701 is a good indication of glassbreak detection range.

A low frequency sound is also produced when a window is broken. In FLEX mode, the low-frequency signal (flex) is generated by gently thumping the window. The flex signal is detected by the FG-701 which sends a burst of audio. If sufficient flex can be generated by a safe, non-breaking thump to the glass, there is good assurance that a real break will be detected. Range indicated by the simulator should be considered the safe detection range for an individual detector. Because of component tolerances do not assume that a substitute detector will work at the same range. If a detector is changed, the replacement should also be tested with the FG- 701.
