GE Security 60-834-95 Installation
Adjustable Dual Technology Sound Sensor
Installation Instructions
Product summary
The sensor (60-834-95, 60-765-43) is a dual technology glassbreak detector that uses a single microphone for detecting both
flex and audio frequencies. Since glass breaking must be both
detected and verified, false alarms are virtually eliminated.
The sensor detects glass breakage of windows within 25 feet.
How It Works
The microphone is sensitive to different frequencies. It detects
both the ultra-low frequencies produced by a blow to a glass
window and the higher frequencies produced by breaking
glass.
The audio technology remains inactive until the microphone
detects a blow to the glass. Once this happens the microphone
must also detect the frequency of breaking glass, within a
defined time-window after the flex circuitry detects a blow to
the glass. Only then does the sensor go into alarm.
The sensor is powered by two 3.6V Lithium AA batteries
(included).
The sensor can be used with the glass types and thicknesses
shown in Table 1 below.

For the sensor to work properly, the glass size must be at least
10-7/8” x 10-7/8”.
Tools Needed
• Small Phillips Screwdriver
• Small Flathead Screwdriver
• Screws and Anchors (included)
• Small Needle-Nose Pliers
• M4 or M5 Screw
• Sound Sensor Tester (part number 13-332)
Programming
The following steps describe the general guidelines for
programming (learning) the sensor into panel memory. Refer to
the specific panel installation instructions or reference manual
for complete programming details.
1. Set the panel to the program mode.
2. Proceed to the LEARN SENSORS menu.
3. Select the appropriate sensor group and sensor number
assignments.
4. When prompted by the panel to trip the sensor, activate
the sensor tamper by opening the sensor door.

Installation
Guidelines
Determine the best mounting location for the sensor using the
following guidelines:
• Mount the sensor on the ceiling or on a wall at least 7 feet
from the floor with a direct and unobstructed line-of-sight
of the protected glass.
• Mount the sensor within 25 feet of the glass to be
protected (see Figure 1 below).

Note: Curtains, blinds, and other window coverings can absorb
energy from breaking glass. For example, heavy curtains will
effectively block the sound signal. In these cases, mount the
sensor behind the window covering next to or above the
window.

2. Remove the sensor cover by first pulling up at the top of
the cover then lift up at the bottom. Set the sensor cover
aside.
Note: Steps 3 and 4 provide instructions on how to enable
the wall tamper switch. For commercial UL listed systems
the wall tamper switch must be used. If not using the
tamper switch feature, move on to step 5.
3. Enable the wall tamper switch by removing the plastic tab
on the back of the sensor using the needle-nose pliers
(see Figure 3 below).

• Do not mount the sensor next to air ducts, forced air fans,
or bells measuring 2 inches (or larger) in diameter

• Do not mount the sensor near doors and windows that can
be slammed (see Figure 1 above).
Do not mount the sensor where furniture may be placed
•
between the glass and the sensor.
• Do not mount the sensor on posts, free-standing or
otherwise.
4. Screw the M4 or M5 screw into the wall or ceiling so that it
will make contact with the wall tamper arm.
5. Place the sensor base at the desired location on the wall
or ceiling (over tamper screw if installed) and mark the
narrow portion of the mounting holes (see Figure 4 on
e 3)

• Do not mount the sensor where a door can be closed
between the sensor and the glass or where an open door
may obstruct sensor line-of-sight (see Figure 1 above).
Mounting the Sensor
Mount the sensor using the following procedure:
1. Open the sensor door and remove the cover screw using
a Phillips screwdriver (see Figure 2 below).
