2. Configuration of the control panel

The metal case of the JA-65K control panel is shipped from the factory with a built-in power supply unit and the main
board. To be able to work as an alarm system, it should be equipped with interface modules (R, H, X) in the following
way:
•
open the case and remove the cover
•
disconnect the power unit cable from the main board connector K5
•
unscrew the module platform (screw on the left side)
•
open the platform and remove it from the case
•
attach the desired modules to the positions shown in the previous diagram
•
connect the modules' cables to the main board in the following way:
65X = K1
o
65R = K2
o
65H = K3 (if two 65H modules are used, connect the left module cable to the right 65H
o
module and the right module cable to the main board's K3 connector)

3. Control panel installation

The control panel's case is designed to be attached to the wall, or it can be partly installed into the wall. The rectangular
hole on the back side is for cable routing. The hole matches a KT-250
specification on how to prepare cables in a house before an alarm system installation.
•
If the 65R radio-communicating module is used, keep in mind that the antenna will need about 20 cm of
clearance. The 65R module comes with a rubber antenna, but it can also be used with an external antenna,
model AN-01. The working range of the wireless accessories is about 100 meters under optimal conditions.
However, building materials can absorb or obstruct radio signals and communication can also be effected by
interference from other radio signals. For these reasons, you should anticipate a shorter working range for indoor
installations.
•
Before attaching the case to the wall, remove the power supply unit (two screws from the front side)
•
Route all the cables to the control panel (power, input loops, outputs, telephone line etc.) before you attach
the case to the desired location.
Note: if you install the case in the wall, the hinges for both the cover & module mounting platform should not be placed
within the wall.

3.1. Power cable wiring

The power cable should be connected only by a licensed electrician. The control panel is a class II. device with
double insulation and power to its power unit must be wired with double insulated two core power cord. No power wire
should be connected to the metal case. Instructions:
•
use flexible 2 core (size from 0.75 to 1.5 mm
cord. The system should not share a fuse with any other household item.
•
route the power cable through the plastic bushing of the power supply unit
cover and screw its wires tightly to the AC terminals
•
attach the cable firmly to the board using the plastic bracket. Before you
tighten the bracket, check that the wires are tightly screwed in the
terminals and be sure that the wires are not longer than shown in the
diagram.
•
reattach the power supply unit in the case, but do not switch the power on
•
install the module mounting platform to the case and connect the power
unit cable to connector K5 on the main board .
Warning: never open the cover of the power supply unit when the system is powered!

4. Antenna of the JA-65R module

If the JA-65R module is installed, it will be possible to enroll wireless detectors,
controllers, a JA-60A siren, output modules and another wireless subsystem if
required. Enrollment is described in the part 9. The 65R module must be equipped
with an antenna.

4.1 Rubber antenna use in the control panel

There is a hole on the top of the control panel case (remove the plastic cap) for the
rubber antenna. The rubber antenna is supplied with the 65R module. Install the
antenna after the module mounting platform is inserted and screwed inside the
control panel case. Attach the antenna to the 65R board using a screw as shown in
the diagram. The antenna must not be obstructed by any large metal object.
