Hikvision DS-PDBG8-EG2 Wired Glass Break Detector
1. Appearance
The detector consists of the following parts:
- Front Panel
- LED Light Pipe
- PCB (Printed Circuit Board)
- Rear Panel
The PCB features:
- Tamper Resistor Headers
- Alarm Resistor Headers
- Sensor
- Adjustable Resistance (Detection range: 0 to 8 m)
- Terminal
- Tamper Protection
- Alarm LED Latch/Normal (Latch, Stay On, Normal)
- LED ON/OFF switch
LED Indicators:
- Blue: Alarm
- Green: Flex Activation
- Red: Shatter Activation
2. Resistor Wiring
Two methods are available for resistor wiring:
- Method 1: Use the jumper to select EOL (End of Line) resistance on ALARM/TAMPER pins.
- Method 2: Add the resistor to ALARM/TAMPER wiring ports.
Note: If EOL wiring is not used, leave the jumpers OFF. Do not force the jumper if it is not matched to the pin. Methods 1 & 2 should not be used on the ALARM/TAMPER at the same time.
Available resistor values:
- Alarm Resistance: 1K, 2K2, 4K7, 5K6, 6K8
- Tamper Resistance: 1K, 2K2, 4K7, 5K6
3. Connection Type
Connect the detector to the Alarm Control Panel.
- Normally Closed (NC) connection: The resistor must be connected in series with one end of the detector.
- Double End of Line (DEOL) Wiring: Example connection: Normal: 1K, Alarm: 4.4K, Tamper: Infinite.
4. Test
Perform a BG (Break Glass) Test.
5. Installation
General Guidelines:
- Do not obscure the detector's field of view with large objects.
- Ensure curtains, plants, or furniture do not cover the microphone opening.
- If curtains are present, place the detector between them and the window.
- Select the optimal location following the guidelines in this manual.
- Avoid mounting the detector in rooms with noisy equipment (air compressors, power tools, bells, etc.).
- Avoid mounting the detector on the same wall as the protected glass.
- Avoid mounting the detector in humid rooms (bathroom, etc.).
- Avoid mounting the detector on a wall with strong vibration.
