1 SELECT MOUNTING LOCATION
Refer to A (on page 1) and the following list for mounting guidelines.
• Mount the detector between the protected glass and any heavy
window coverings that may be present. When heavy window coverings
are present, the detector can be mounted on the frame of the window
• Do NOT mount the detector:
– on posts or pillars
– in rooms with noisy equipment (air compressors, power tools, etc.),
if this equipment is operated when the detector is armed
– where the detector’s view of the glass may be obstructed
unintentionally
2 CONNECT THE BATTERIES (SEE B ON PAGE 1)
3 SELECT PROTOCOL (SEE B ON PAGE 1)
evohome=ALPHA
4 SET THE RANGE (SEE B ON PAGE 1)
For best false alarm immunity, measure distance from the intended
mounting location of the detector to the farthest point of glass to be
protected. The maximum distance should be 7.6 m. Set the shortest
range available with DIP switches SENS 1 and SENS 2 that is greater
than or equal to measured distance.
5 MOUNT THE DETECTOR
Orient the microphone for the best line-of-sight to the protected glass.
If ceiling mounted the end with the microphone should face the
protected glass.
Important: Not suitable for use on acoustic ceiling tiles if the rear
tamper will be used. Use drywall anchors if not mounting to a wall stud
or ceilin joist. If the rear tamper is used, tamper screw should screw
into frame, or a heavy-duty anchor, because the rear tamper requires
high breakawa force. Reinstall the battery (if removed for rear tamper
installation), then close and secure the detector front cover.
6 TEST MODES
TRANSMITTER Test Mode: This test mode shows transmitter activity.
It activates upon power-up and when the cover is opened. It remains
active for 10 minutes after the tamper switch is closed.
GLASSBREAK Test Mode: This test mode allows testing of the
glassbreak function. It is activated three ways – upon power-up,
by pressing the glassbreak test switch (see B on page 1).
For both test modes, refer to the following LED Indicators table.

When registered, the FG8MS sends a low battery signal to the pane
when the battery voltage gets low. Replace the battery. The detecto low
battery indication is approximate only.
7 TESTING GLASSBREAK WITHOUT AN FG-701 TESTER
Enter GLASSBREAK test mode. The Green LED will fl ash at 1Hz. Clap
hands near the detector and the Green LED will fl icker, verifying the
detector is hearing room noise. To test that that the panel is detecting
an alarm, tap on the detector cover with a fi nger nail or screwdriver until
the Red LED turns on for 5 seconds.

Coated glass with security fi lms up to 0.35mm (14 mils) thick (including
fi lms for solar protection) may be used. Evaluated with the these
products: 3M® SCOTCHSHIELD® SH14CLARL – 0.35mm (14 mils), 4 ply
fi lm; Film Technologies International, Inc.’s GLASS-GARD GGLL 1200.

For these glass types, mounting at less than ½ the indicated range
setting is recommended. (Example: set SENS 1 and SENS 2 for 4.6 m
range, but mount the detector 2.3 m or less from the farthest glass to be
protected.)
