ABSTRACT:
An alarm system for detecting glass breakage has a switch having an input terminal, output terminal, and control terminal. The input terminal is electrically connected to a power source such as a battery. An electrically conductive trace is formed on glass, and is electrically connected to the output terminal of the switch. A controller is electrically connected to the control terminal of the switch and controls the operation of the switch between conducting and non-conducting states. The controller measures and compares a reference output terminal voltage of said switching means while said switching means is in the conducting state, a second output terminal voltage while the switch is in the non-conducting state and a third output terminal voltage of the switch while the switching is in the conducting state. The controller generates a control signal in response to a comparison of said measured voltages.
