Glass Break Detectors Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Program a Honeywell SiXGB to the Lyric Security System?
The Honeywell SiXGB is a wireless glass break sensor designed specifically for the Lyric Alarm System. Learn how to enroll a Honeywell SiXGB with your Lyric Security Panel.
How Do I Clear a Trouble From My 5853?
A Honeywell 5853 Glass Break Sensor can cause a trouble condition due to a low battery, a loose tamper cover, or a loss of RF supervision. Learn how to clear a trouble on a 5853.
Are Glass Break Sensors Worth It?
Glass break sensors represent the best way detect a glass window or casing that has been shattered. These devices work with most types of glass. Learn about glass break sensors.
How Do I Clear a Glass Break Fault on a Honeywell L7000?
When a glass break sensor causes an alarm on a Honeywell L7000, you must Disarm the system twice to clear it. Learn about glass break sensors and how to clear an alarm.
How Do I Reset a Honeywell 5853 Glass Break Sensor?
After an alarm is caused by a Honeywell 5853 Glass Break Sensor, you must enter a panel disarm command twice. This will clear the alarm and reset the sensor. Learn about the 5853.
When Should I Use Shock Sensors vs Glass Break Detectors?
Although shock sensors and glass break detectors have similar applications, each type has its own advantages. Find out when you should use shock sensors or glass break sensors.
How Do I Enable the Built-In Glass Break Zone for the IQ Panel 2?
The IQ Panel 2 has a built-in glass break detector that triggers an alarm if activated while the system is armed. Learn how to enable the internal glass break for the IQ Panel 2.
Which Glass Break Sensors Work w/ ADT Security Systems?
ADT equipment is often comparable to that of Honeywell. In fact, many ADT sensors are simply re-branded Honeywell sensors. For that reason, Honeywell glass break sensors will often work with ADT alarm systems. Learn more about which glass break sensors are compatible with ADT security panels.
Are Glass Break Sensors Effective?
Glass break sensors are very effective in detecting the sound of breaking glass. These devices are very reliable when it comes to monitoring windows and protective glass casings. The dual-frequency detection process also prevents false alarms. Learn more about glass break sensors and how they work.
How Does a Glass Break Sensor Work?
A glass break sensor actively listens for the sound of breaking glass. These security devices will activate upon hearing the low-pitch "thud" of an object striking against glass, while simultaneously hearing the high-pitch "shattering" of the glass itself. Learn more about glass break sensors.
