1.0 Installation Considerations
Mount the RF1100 on flat surfaces such as ceilings and
walls. Mount the unit to optimize glass break detection.
Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 for mounting examples.
In normal residential or commercial applications,
locate the RF1100 within 325 ft (100 m) of its assigned
receiver.
For best detector performance, select a
mounting location that is:
• within 25 ft (7.6 m) of the protected
glass
• within clear view of the protected
glass (there is no minimum range)
• at least 6.5 ft (2 m) from the floor
• at least 3.3 ft (1 m) from forced-air
ducts
• at least 3.3 ft (1 m) from sirens or
bells (greater than 2 in. [5 cm] in
diameter)
• mounted on a window frame if any
heavy window covering is present
Avoid mounting the detector:
• in a corner
• on the same wall as the protected
glass
• on free-standing posts or pillars
