jablotron JA-162A Quick Start Manual

The JA-162A is a component of the JABLOTRON 100 system.
It is used for alarm indication inside a building. It can also be used for
other acoustic indications (PG outputs, entry/exit delays and doorbell).
Pressing the siren button can silence the alarm (= confirmation
of a person's presence in the building) or trigger a panic alarm (optional
function). The siren is equipped with a backup battery for cases when
AC dropouts can happen. It has also got a built-in detector of siren
tampering by disconnection from its electrical socket. The siren takes
one position in the system and should be installed by a trained
technician with a valid manufacturer's certificate.

Installation
It is necessary to perform the enrollment procedure in service mode
and the system has to be equipped with an JA-11xR radio module.
1. Plug the siren into the required electrical socket where there is still
a good RF range to the control panel.
2. The control button (1) lights permanently with a yellow colour and it
means the siren is ready to be enrolled. If the control button (1)
doesn't light permanently, then follow the Warning below.
3. Go to the F-link software,
in the Devices tab and click on the Enroll option – enrollment
mode is then launched.
4. Press the control button (1) on the siren. The siren is thus enrolled
to required position and the yellow LED goes off.
5. Set the siren properties (see the Internal setting chapter).
Warning: If the battery is low then the siren can't be enrolled
to the control panel. This status is indicated by the periodical flashing
of the yellow LED each 15 s. It is strictly necessary to wait (usually
a few minutes) until the backup battery is charged to the point when
it is able to transmit the enrolling signal. When the backup battery
is fully charged (permanently lit yellow LED), open the enrollment mode
and then press the control button (1) to transmit an enrolling signal.
If the siren is unplugged from the electricity then it will be able to work
for 12 hrs from the backup battery. When the backup battery voltage
reaches the critical level, then the siren is turned off to protect
the backup battery against damage.
Internal settings of the siren
Open the F-Link software, go to the Devices tab. Click on the Internal
settings option at the siren's position to open a dialog window where
you can set the following options: (* indicates default settings).
The Setting tab:
Acoustic indication of an intrusion alarm from sections:
determines for which sections the siren should indicate an intrusion
alarm. The default setting is the indication of an intrusion from all
sections.
Reaction: determines whether the siren should indicate IW* (internal
warning) or EW (external warning) signals. Alarm indication with this
siren can also be completely disabled (other functions remain active).
Siren sound: Intermittent*, Continuous
Maximum siren time: 1, 2, 3*, 4, 5 minutes and OFF – if the OFF
option is selected the acoustic indication corresponds to the Alarm
length parameter in the Parameters tab in the F-Link software
When controlled by a section: YES / NO* – if enabled, the siren
beeps 1x after setting, 2x after unsetting and 3x when unsetting after an
alarm. Valid only for the selected sections.
Other acoustic indication from sections: determines for which
sections the siren will indicate other types of alarm. The default
is indication for all sections.
Higher volume: YES / NO* – affects only entrance/exit delay
signalling and sounds indicating PG outputs triggering
Entry delay: YES / NO* – if enabled, the siren indicates the entrance
delays of the selected sections.
Exit delay when partially set: YES / NO* – if enabled, the siren
indicates the exit delays of the selected sections when the system
The JA-162A Internal wireless siren
The JA-162A Internal wireless siren
select the required position
is partially set. This option is available only when the exit delay of fully
set sections is enabled.
Exit delay: YES / NO* – if enabled, the siren indicates the exit delays
of the fully set selected sections.
Tamper detection: Disabled, Always*, During alarm – the default
setting is that any manipulation with the siren is taken as a tampering.
It can be set to be taken into account only during an ongoing alarm
or it can be completely disabled. This function works as a confirmation
of a person's presence in the building.
The Signalling PG tab:
LED indicates sounding PG: if enabled, an acoustic indication
triggered by an active PG is continuously indicated by LED.
Sound indication can be set for each PG output:
Slow beeping – beeps 1x per second (as long as the PG is active)
Quick beeping – beeps 2x per second (as long as the PG is active)
1x ON / 2x OFF – beeps 1x when the PG is activated, beeps 2x when
the PG is deactivated
20 secs of beeping – beeps continuously for 20 secs when the PG
is activated
Melodies 1 to 4 – four available doorbell melodies
Control panel reaction to pressing the siren button:
The default setting is that pressing the siren button (1) during
an alarm mutes the siren and concurrently confirms a person's
presence in the building (a report is sent).
It is possible to change the siren button reaction in order to function
as a panic alarm button (1) in the Devices tab in the F-Link software.
In such a case the system responds to the pressing with a panic alarm
in the section to which the siren has been assigned.
Test – by pressing the TEST button you can test the siren function
and the siren reacts to this pressing by 3 s alarm sound.
Note: The siren sound has the highest priority, the beeps during
control have a lower priority and the PG output activity indication has
the lowest priority (PG1 has a higher priority than PG2 etc). The beep
with higher priority always terminates the beep with a lower priority.
To set the siren to comply with security grade
2 according to the EN50131 norm, use F-Link
SW (1.4.0 and higher), the Parameters tab and
the option System profiles.
Backup battery replacement
The siren checks the backup battery status automatically. The current
status can be checked by the F-link software tab called Diagnostics
(current battery status, its voltage when loaded and unloaded). When
a backup battery fault is triggered, then it is necessary to replace
it as fast as possible to avoid siren malfunctioning.
Battery replacement
by a person with an adequate electrotechnical
qualification
is disconnected from its electrical socket.
Battery replacement procedure:
1. Unplug the siren from the electrical socket.
2. Unscrew the 4 locking screws on the siren's rear side and
remove the rear side carefully.
3. Take out the PCB from the front part.
4. Now it is possible to replace the old backup battery. Fix
the new backup battery by the ties and connect it by connector
to the PCB.
5. Re-assemble the siren in reverse order of the points (1 – 3)
– be careful, the spring has to be correctly assembled
on the LED's body otherwise the button will not work (1).
The control panel must be in service mode (see control panel
installation manual) then it is possible to open the siren cover, before
you start changing the battery. Valid when Tamper detection setting
is enabled. Always use a 3.6 V, 170 mAh (BAT-3V6-N170) backup
battery.
Note: If the battery is low (as reported to the control panel) the siren
is not able to fully perform all its functions.
