Z-Series energizer, or the configuration of the unit itself. To test your unit it is best to connect your Z13 with a test fence, this is done by connecting cables as shown in the picture below.
This is covered under “6.3 Example of Fence (High Voltage) Wiring Dia- grams” on page 29. In depth installation instructions begin on page 27. After the Z13 has been wired up you can begin to protect your pe- rimeter. JVA Z13 Manual...
MOST FREQUENTLY USED LCD KEYPAD COMMANDS For a full list of all keypad commands please see “11.6 Summary Of Keypad Functions” on page 57. Default Installer PIN 012345 Default User PIN 1234 First you need to connect the Z-Series LCD keypad to the Z-Series device. Once you have a keypad connected you can refer to the table below to control the Z-Series device.
Designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent international safe- ty standards, the JVA Z13 is in a class of its own when it comes to features and benefits at an affordable price.
• AC fail, low battery and bad battery detection • Large number of keypad programmable options • Adjustable fence voltage level • Two 12V dc switch outputs (also referred to as relays) • Two control Inputs configured as NO or NC contacts JVA Z13 Manual Page 20...

Detail” on page 38. Each parameter has a factory set default. ARM INPUT AND KEY SWITCH The JVA Z-Series energizer can be armed (to energise the fence) by closing a contact wired into the arm input. On some models a key switch is fitted to the right-hand side of the case for this purpose.
5.12 REMOTE CONTROL UNIT (OPTIONAL) The Remote Control Unit provides the Z13 with the ability to arm or dis- arm the energizer via a compact key chain fob remote control. If using the remote control the siren can be used to acknowledge arming with 1 beep and disarm with 2 beeps, see programming option “9.5.11 Chime Mode...
5.15 EARTH LOOP MONITORING The Z13 has two fence earth terminals. If the earth monitoring facility is not required, the Earth Out and Earth Return terminals must be joined with a wire bridge. Directions on how to wire for earth loop monitoring are in Section “6.3 Example of Fence (High Voltage) Wiring Diagrams”...
2. Design and build the fence. (Beyond the scope of this manual.) Ask your distributor for help if required. 3. Decide where the JVA Z13 is to be mounted. If on an external wall it should be housed within a waterproof equipment box and definitely not in direct sunlight.
CONTROL Your JVA Z13 security energizer has been designed for ease of operation. It may be armed and disarmed using any of the following: • Key switch or remote switch connected to the control input (IN1) • Remote control radio receiver connected to IN1 •...
• Enter your new User PIN (must be 4 digits) and then #. • Press *# to exit User Programming mode. • Make sure your new User PIN works by using it to arm the energizer. JVA Z13 Manual Page 32...
(4 Amp slow blow fuse). POWER OPTIONS The Z13 has 2 sources of power, 16VAC and 12VDC (battery). If using solar power and an external battery, connect the battery to the battery leads, not the 16Vac input. A 24Vdc 1.5A supply can be used in place of the 16Vac supply. The correct connection is +24V to the left AC pin, GND to the middle AC pin.
INSTALLATION PROGRAMMING OPTIONS The Z13 has permanent memory in which the programming options are stored. These are factory pre-set but can be field programmed using a Z- Series keypad. To see the programming options in brief see “2.1 Changing The Programming Options” on page 6...

The Remote control receiver unit requires 12V and 0V (GND) from the key- pad bus, and its output wired to IN1. Mount the receiver on the right hand side of the Z13 energizer. Connect +12V and 0V (GND) from the KEYPAD terminals on the energizer to the right-most terminals of the receiver, as per the diagram above.
