break sound
•
MANual and FLEX test modes
•
Sound activation of test mode
for FG-1000 series detectors
OPERATING THE SIMULATOR
Model FG-1000 or higher glassbreak detectors must be activated for
testing.
This step is only applicable to
FlexGuard ® Glassbreak
Detectors with Model
Numbers FG-1000
or higher
Figure 1
To Activate the Model FG-1000 (or higher) Glassbreak Detector:
1. Install the glassbreak detector in an appropriate location (refer to the
detector's installation instructions).
2. Stand within 10' (3 m) of the detector.
3. Set the FG-701 switches to the ACTIVATE and MANual modes (see
Figure 1).
4. Aim the front speaker of the FG-701 Glassbreak Simulator at the
detector.
5. Press the red start button for the ACTIVATE sound.
The green LED on FG-1000 series detectors will flash rapidly to indicate the
detector is in test mode.
Note: Pressing the red button again will deactivate the detector test mode.
The FG-1000 series test mode also turns off automatically after ten minutes.

Testing in FLEX mode:
1. Set the FG-701 switches to the TEST and FLEX modes. (See Figure 2.)
2. Press the red start button. The simulator will "click" on and start an eight-
second armed period.
3. Position the FG-701 near the farthest point of the protected glass, and
point the speaker directly at the glassbreak detector.
®
4. Generate a flex signal by carefully striking the glass with a cushioned
tool. The FG-701 will respond by producing a burst of glass-break
audio.
If both the flex and audio are received properly, the red alarm LED on
the detector will light.
After the simulator is triggered by a flex signal, there is a one-second hold-
off period during which the FG-701 will not retrigger. This prevents repeated
triggering due to continued vibration of the glass.
Successfully triggering the simulator with a flex signal generates a new eight-
second armed period. If you do not generate a flex signal within eight
seconds, the simulator will automatically "click" off. Press the start button
to re-arm the simulator.
The FG-701 may be turned off by either waiting for it to "click" off in FLEX
mode, or by selecting MANual mode.
Important: If window coverings are present, close them fully
and hold the FG-701 behind the window coverings for testing.
Testing in MANual mode:
If the glassbreak detector fails to signal an alarm when testing in the FLEX
mode, switch the FG-701 to the MANual mode. This will enable you to
determine if the problem is flex or audio detection.
