1. Mount the detector within 25 feet of framed glass, ensuring a clear line of sight. Secure it with screws.
2. Wire the detector using 18-22 gauge wire. Connect wires to the appropriate terminals and tuck excess wire into the wall opening.
3. Configure the detector's settings using the DIP switches to select the desired sensitivity and operation mode.
4. Test the detector's operation using the glassbreak simulator to ensure proper activation and range. The green LED will flash if receiving audio correctly.
