• The best location for mounting the FA207 is on the wall opposite of the
window to be protected. The FA207 may also be mounted on the wall adjoining
the window to be protected, or on the ceiling.
• The glass should have the following minimum dimensions:

- Dimensions: 0.3 m x 0.6 m (1 x 2ft) or larger
- Plate thickness: 2.4 mm to 6.4 mm (3/32" to 1/4")
- Tempered thickness: 3.2 mm to 6.4 mm (1/8" to 1/4")
- Wired thickness: 6.4 mm (1/4")
- Laminated thickness: 3.2 mm to 6.4 mm (1/8" to 1/4")

• Avoid glass airlocks and glass vestibule areas, noisy kitchens and residential
car garages.
• Avoid rooms smaller than 3 x 3 m (10 x 10 ft), such as small utility rooms,
stairwells and small bathrooms.
• Because the unit is not hermetically sealed, avoid humid rooms.
• Avoid rooms where white noise, such as air compressor noise, is present. (A
blast of compressed air may cause a false alarm.)
• Avoid rooms with noise insulation or sound-deadening drapes or with closed,
wooden window shutters inside.
• Avoid placing the FA207 in the corner of a room.

2.4 Test the FA207
The FA207 should be tested following installation. Though full functionality testing
requires use of the Sentrol 5709C acoustic glassbreak tester, which switches the
unit into test mode and simulates alarm conditions via sonic bursts, the FA207 may
be field-tested by doing the following:
1.

Remove the programming header jumper to test the transmitter. This should

cause a tamper fault (Fig. 1).
2.

Clap your hands loudly in front of the sensor to test the microphone. The LED will

blink twice, but the alarm will not trip (Fig. 1).
