Deterrence – The safe, powerful JVA shock is a strong deterrent to intruders. Delay – The physical barrier will delay an intruder, something they do not like. Detection – The JVA’s voltage monitor warns you of any tampering with the fence. Deny – A well-erected electric security fence will deny entry.

JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 4.2 LCD Voltage Display The display on the JVA Z14 shows the voltage at the fence and return terminals. The left is the return and the right is the feed voltage. Arrows at the top of the display indicate that the unit is in conventional mode.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 4.6 Keypad (0ptional) Up to 3 keypads can be used to remotely monitor and control the Z14. A keypad is required to set the programmable options for installer programming options. See pages 33–35. 4.7 Keypad LCD Screen The JVA Z14 can function with the supplied side-mounted key switch.
The voltage between the wires is the same as that of a conventional fence. To set a Z14 to Bi-Polar mode, the unit must be modified by a JVA Technical Centre.
In the event of erratic behaviour, check that the high voltage wiring is firmly connected to the terminals and that no sparking is seen. The Z14 is designed to self-recover from interference. Powering off (both AC and battery) should not be necessary.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS simultaneous high voltage output pulses and act as if they are one energizer with multiple outputs. This is designed so that no possible combination of individual outputs can be dangerous. See Installation Steps – Group mode...
Design and build the fence. (Beyond the scope of this manual.) Ask your distributor for help if required. Decide where the JVA Z14 is to be mounted. If on an external wall it should be housed within a waterproof equipment box and definitely not in direct sunlight.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 5.4 Installation Steps – Group Mode Disarm all energizers in the group. If energizers are not disarmed Step 10 may not work correctly. Program the keypad address using one of the energizers. Program each energizer with its required address (Master address = 1, Slave 1 address = 2...).

JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 6. OPERATION 6.1 Control Your JVA Z14 security energizer has been designed for ease of operation. Key Switch: In its simplest form, the energizer is controlled by the key switch on the side of the unit.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 6.4 When an Alarm Occurs If the system is armed and the fence is tampered with, the Fence Light will flash and then remain on. A siren or strobe connected to the unit will turn on. If the energizer is connected to an alarm system for monitoring, an alarm signal will be sent to the alarm company monitoring the alarm system.
XXXX*22# 6.10 Solar Powering the Unit If there is no mains power on the site, the Z14 can be powered as follows: A 105 Amp/hour battery charged by a 75 watt solar panel. This is a guideline. A bigger panel may be required in some cases. If operating from an externally charged...
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 7. TECHNICAL INFORMATION – – Gate Keypad Siren Strobe 16V AC Input Label Type Description 2 Way Energizer control input (dry contact) is in parallel with the key switch input, SW2. Can be used for a remote switch or a radio receiver. The receiver may be powered from the keypad +12V terminal.
A PCB fault will disarm the Energizer. If an error disarms the Energizer, the General Alarm and Fence Alarm will be activated. 7.3 Jumpers The Z14 has two special purpose jumpers (links). These are listed in the table below. Jumper Function...
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 8. INSTALLATION PROGRAMMING OPTIONS The Z14 has a non-volatile memory in which are held programming options (setup parameters). These are factory pre-set but can be field programmed using a keypad. 8.1 Programming Mode To enter Programming mode, enter the 6-digit INSTALLER PIN followed by *0# keys.

JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 8.6 Programming Options in detail Note: The bold panel in each table indicates 8.6.1 Power Level (01x#) the default value. The power level option allows the shocking Value (x) Voltage Voltage power of the fence to be adjusted. For...
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 8.6.4 Low Power Alarm Level (05x#) Value (x) Voltage This option sets the voltage threshold 300 Volts below which the fence alarm will occur. 500 Volts The default Fence Alarm Voltage is 500 700 Volts Volts.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 8.6.7 Siren On Time (08x#) Value Time This option sets the duration of time that 10 Seconds the siren will remain on after a fence alarm 30 Seconds occurs. After this time the siren will turn off 1 Minute for the Off time indicated in Table 8.6.8.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS Value Function 8.6.10 Input Inversion (11x#) Normally open The control inputs can be inverted, Normally closed unless an input is used for a Gate switch, Momentary Input in which case it is always NC. Input Inversion (11x#) 8.6.11 Gate Input Function/Low...
Zone on a Z28. Added in code version Binary Options (16x#) 7.84. Also limits a Z14 to 2.5J per zone in group mode. Added 7.86. +8: Enables the IR tamper detection under the lid. J3 changes function to inhibit tamper.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS The Anti-bridging Threshold is a percentage value of the current Fence Voltage. For example, setting option 17 to 10 (1710#) will set a 10% Anti-bridging Threshold. At this level a fence (return) voltage normally reading 7.5kV will trigger a Fence Alarm if the voltage quickly rises to over 8.3kV or falls to less than 6.7kV.
Fence 2 Fence 2 or off Even though the three additional relays Armed 2 are not fitted to the Z14, Relays 3, 4 and 5 can still be programmed. The modes Fence Bi-Polar are explained in the table opposite. General...

JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 9. JVA Z14 ALPHA PLUS LCD KEYPAD FEATURES 9.1 Using the Alpha Plus LCD Keypad The LCD keypad has two LEDs, Power and Arm, which act as follows: Power: On with Mains power, flashes on low battery.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 9.2 Changing the Keypad Messages You can change the messages and each of the 8 zone labels. ● The Dealer Message displays when the system is on standby. ● Zone Labels displays after the [#] key is pressed during alarm memory or faults.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS The message order is: ● Service Message (Displayed under “System Trouble”) ● Dealer Message (Displayed under the standby message: “Ready to Arm”) ● Soft Zone Identifiers (A, B, And C) (not used) ● Hardwired Loop Identifiers (Zone 1 = Gate, Zone 3 = Fence) ●...
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 10. SECTOR SETUP TESTS AND ADJUSTMENT With a single sector system there are two considerations for the electric fence monitor voltage level: 1. The monitor should trigger the alarm if one of the live wires is shorted to ground.
Page 39
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 1. To simulate a break, disconnect a joint in the live wires at some convenient point on the fence, making sure that the wires do not short to ground or between +ve and -ve wires. 2. Check that the energizer fence alarm activates. If not, check the voltage (using an electric fence voltmeter) at the inputs to the monitor.
11. SOME STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRIC SECURITY FENCES The JVA range of energizers has been extensively tested and certified in accordance with international standards. JVA does not take responsibility for the erection standards of the fence. It is the responsibility of the erector to consult and comply with the Standards and Codes of Practice for the installation and erection of electric security fences.
* NB. (Fence HT leads must under no circumstances be routed in the same conduit as any other wiring.) 11.3 Warning Signs NOTE: Regulation warning signs are available from all JVA Electric Fence centres and all JVA certified dealers. 11.3.1 Electric security fences shall be identified by prominently placed warning signs that shall be legible from the secure area and from the public area.
JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS 11.6 Protection 11.6.1 All ancillary equipment connected to the fence circuit shall be designed to provide a degree of isolation between a fence circuit and the supply mains equivalent to that specified for the energizer. 11.6.2 Protection from weather shall be...
