PIMA GBR743 Wireless Glass Break Detector

Product Information

Wireless Glass break Detector Installation Instructions

Model: GBR743 / GBR786

General Description
The Wireless GBR is an advanced microprocessor-based Acoustic Glass Break detector. It uses advanced glass-breaking pattern analysis of both Low Frequency Flex & High Frequency Shatter channels to detect the breaking of most common types of framed glass panes while ignoring false alarms.

Main Features

Installation Procedure

Range of Coverage: The Wireless GBR range of coverage depends on the type of glass and the installation angle between the Wireless GBR and the glass.

Angle (degrees) – Percent of maximum range

0 – 100%

12 – 95%

30 – 87%

45 – 70%

60 – 50%

75 – 25%

90 – 0%

Mounting Location: For optimal performance, the Wireless GBR should be mounted as nearly opposite to the glass area to be protected.

Mounting

1. Open the Wireless GBR cover using a flat screwdriver.
2. Open the required mounting knockouts, according to the type of installation (corner, flat or swivel mounting).
3. Use the detector’s back plate as a template and mark the drilling holes on the required position.
4. Note: Remove the PCB only if corner mounting or optional swivel mounting adaptor is used.

Notes:

• Do not mount Wireless GBR on the same wall as the protected glass.
• Avoid installing the Wireless GBR near sources of loud noise or vibrations (air conditioners, fans, compressors, stereos, etc).
• Avoid defining the Wireless GBR as a 24-hour zone.
• The Wireless GBR should always be installed in addition to standard motion detectors.

Installation Instructions

Model: GBR743 / GBR786

General Description

The Wireless GBR is an advanced microprocessor based Acoustic Glass Break detector. Using advanced glass-breaking pattern analysis of both Low Frequency “Flex” & High Frequency “Shatter” channels, the Wireless GBR detects the breaking of most common types of framed glass panes while ignoring false alarms.

Main Features

• Up to 9m detection range
• Suitable for most common glass types: plate, tempered, laminated and wired glass
• Minimum size for all types of glass: 30cm x 30cm (12” x 12”).
• Wall and Front cover Tamper protection
  Type of Glass| Thickness
  ---|---
  Plate Tempered Laminated| 3.2 mm – 6.4 mm (1/8” – 1/4”)
  Wired| 6.4 mm (1/4”)
• Wireless GBR will not alarm if glass pane is broken from inside or glass is dropped on floor.
• Full remote test using RG-65 Glass Break Simulator, without the need to open the unit.
• Optional ceiling/wall mount swivel adaptor for optimal mounting and performance (supplied with the Wireless GBR).

Installation Procedure

Range of Coverage
Wireless GBR range of coverage depends on the type of glass (see Table 1) and the installation angle between the Wireless GBR and the glass (see Fig 1).

Table 1: Wireless GBR range of coverage

Note: To improve detection, it is highly recommended to use a swivel adaptor, especially for ceiling and wall installations.

Fig 1: Percentage of Maximum Range as a function of angle between Wireless GBR and glass.

Verify that the distance between the Wireless GBR and the furthest point on the protected glass does not exceed the maximum specified range taking into account the reduced range due to angle (see Fig 2).

Other factors affecting range:

• There should be no obstructions between the Wireless GBR and the protected glass.
• Curtains and blinds may reduce the effective range.
• Sound absorbing materials in the protected area may reduce the range.

Mounting Location

For optimal performance the Wireless GBR should be mounted as nearly opposite to the glass area to be protected, as shown in Fig 3.

• Opposite Wall Mounted (For optimal results, Wireless GBR is centered opposite glass, see Fig. 3).
• Ceiling Mounted (for optimal results Wireless GBR is centered and directed towards protected glass, using the supplied swivel adaptor, see fig. 4).
• Corner Mounted (choose corner opposite glass to be protected see fig. 5).
• Side wall mounted (not recommended due to the fact that the Wireless GBR is not opposite the glass – see range versus angle diagram (Fig 2). Test detection carefully at both ends of glass using RG-65 Tester (see fig. 6).

Notes:

• Do not mount Wireless GBR on same wall as the protected glass.
• Avoid installing the Wireless GBR near sources of loud noise or vibrations (air conditioners, fans, compressors, stereos, etc).
• Avoid defining the Wireless GBR as a 24 hour zone.
• The Wireless GBR should always be installed in addition to standard motion detectors.

Mounting

1. Open the Wireless GBR cover using a flat screwdriver.

2. Open the required mounting knockouts, according to the type of installation (corner, flat or swivel mounting, see Fig. 7).

3. Use the detector’s back plate as a template and mark the drilling holes on the required position.
   Note: Remove the PCB only if corner mounting or optional swivel mounting adaptor is used.

10. If a back tamper protection is required open the back tamper knockout (3, Fig. 7).

11.  Secure the back plate to the wall using the supplied screws. Snap back the PCB (if removed).

12.  Insert battery in place according to the correct polarity (polarity marks – on PCB).

Swivel Mounting

When installing the Wireless GBR with the supplied swivel mounting adaptor, maximum installation flexibility and performance is achieved.

To install the swivel mounting adaptor perform the following:

1. Remove the PCB from the Wireless GBR back plate.
2. Open the swivel mounting adaptor knockouts (4, Fig 7).
3. Attach the swivel mounting adaptor to the back plate using the two supplied screws (1, Fig 8).
4. Mount the Wireless GBR on the required location (wall or ceiling) using the supplied screws (2, Fig 8). Do not tighten the screws.
5. Adjust the detector so it will face the protected glass.
6. Tighten the bolts to the final torque.

GBR Operation Modes

The Wireless GBR has 3 operation modes:

Normal: Any loud sounds such as clapping, whistling or key- jingling should produce a flash of the GBR ‘s LED. This verifies that the Wireless GBR is active. During active supervision, there is no transmission. To save power consumption the LED is activated up to 800 times per day.

Alarm: On detection of framed glass being broken from outside the LED will light continuously for 2 seconds and an alarm transmission is sent

Test: See test paragraph

Testing the Wireless GBR

Testing under Test mode
Testing should be performed using PIMA’s RG65 Glass Break Simulator which has been specially designed and calibrated to give accurate range test results.

Note: All tests should be conducted under worst case conditions. All sounds should be generated behind curtains or blinds.

Step 1: Entering the test mode
The Wireless GBR enter the test mode if one of the following is performed:

1. After closing the front cover – the Wireless GBR will enter into test mode for 2 minutes.
2. Using the RG65 tester – Position the tester at a distance of 1 meter from the Wireless GBR. Set the lower selector switch on the RG65 tester to CODE setting and press the operation button on the tester. The Wireless GBR will blink once every 3 seconds, asting for a period of two minutes.

Step 2: High frequency (audio) test
Position the Glass Break Simulator at the farthest point on the protected glass and face it into the room. Set lower selector to GLASS setting and upper to type of glass to be simulated. Generate glass-break sound by pressing operating button. Verify that the Wireless GBR LED is lit for 2 seconds and ALARM message is transmitted while the red LED is on.

Step 3: Environmental Test
This test is performed to verify interference produced by environmental conditions or facilities. To perform the test, operate all devices in the protected region that may interfere with the detector, including air conditioners, fans, radios etc.
Observe the wireless GBR and note any disturbances. If disturbances occur, re – positions the unit in a different position and re- test.
Turn all noise generating equipment off and wait until unit returns to NORMAL mode.

Note: The Wireless GBR will return to NORMAL mode after two minutes. Setting the “CODE” switch and pressing the “Manual” button at any time will initiate another two minutes Test Mode.

Step 4: User test
The Wireless GBR can be tested by the installer or the user while in normal mode by clapping or whistling or key- jingling under the detector. The LED will flash. No report will be established.
