Service instructions for JA-182M

Wireless built-in magnet contact

This product is part of the Jablotron 100 series alarm system. It provides detection of the opening of a window (door). The detector is installed in plastic or wood frames and can be used with most common types of hardware. The detector communicates wirelessly via the Jablotron protocol and is powered from batteries.

Detector installation - basic information
Installation must be done by a trained technician with valid Jablotron certification. The detector must not be bent or otherwise deformed - danger of damage.
The product is installed in the gap between the moving and fixed frame (where the locking mechanism of the hardware is).
In practice, different profiles of frames and different types of hardware exist. Therefore, it is advisable as a first check, whether the detector fits in the present type of window (or door). If the profile of a wooden frame is narrower, a notch for inserting the detector can usually be milled out.
The detector is placed on the fixed frame, the activation magnet on the movable frame. The detector responds to the magnification of distance from the magnet as the window opens. If the magnet supplied with the window design does not correspond accurately, either a suitable type of magnet can be requested from the window supplier, or the magnet supplied can be modified by using a suitable underlay, etc.

Assembly step by step
1. Find a suitable place to install the detector and magnet so that after closing the window, the magnet is above the A (or B) dash. By opening the window, the magnet should be removed by 2 cm min.
2. The best place is in the moving frame of the window, where there is no hardware (i.e. the detector should not be placed directly next to any metal). Such a place is usually found on the side between the hinges. Mounting detector in the lower part of the window is not recommended, due to possible water condensation.
3. Screw the magnet against the moving frame according to the illustration. If the rebate in the window is wider than the plastic of the magnet, use a suitable non-metallic pad under the magnet.

 

4. Remove the battery cover and mount the detector so that when closed, the magnet is above the A or B line (see illustration). Carefully tighten the detector screws so as not to damage its plastic.
5. If the window frame or mounting location of the detector is not straight, put under the detector the supplied long plastic sole plates. With the detector installed, at least one rear tamper sensor must remain permanently depressed.
6. Carefully go and try if the window closes and if the detector and magnet are not in the way.
7. If everything is OK, set the detector functions (see configuration switches)
8. In the central unit (receiver), switch on the learning mode and then connect batteries to the detector and screw the cover on it (2 screws). After connecting the batteries, the detector will send the learning signal. The detector will start responding to the magnification/reduction of the distance of the magnet and pressing/releasing of sabotage sensors only 10s after closing the cap of batteries.
9. After the detector has learned, check its operation (check on Jablotron control center also the quality of the signal).
10. Signal light - indicates detector activation for 15 minutes after closing the battery cover (window opening with flashing, activation of both rear tamper sensors with long light).

Configuration switches
Under the battery cover are 4 switches for detector configuration:
 

Operation of the detector
With switch #2 in position OFF, the detector reports that the window is permanently open. If the system is armed with a window open, the control center bypasses the detector. However, if during arming someone closes the window and then opens it again (e.g. after moving the window knob using a string in the open position), an alarm is called. If it should not be displayed on the keypad that the window is permanently open, switch the configuration switch no.2 to the ON position (only the opening of the window is reported).

Changing batteries in the detector
The system monitors the battery status and as soon as they begin to run down, informs the user (possibly also the service technician). The detector will continue to work, but we recommend replacing the battery extremely within 2 weeks. Always replace both batteries with new ones at the same time and only use quality brand batteries (e.g. Panasonic). After replacing the batteries, we recommend testing the detector's operation.
Do not dispose of used up batteries with household waste, but dispose of them with chemical waste.

Removing the detector from the system
The system reports any loss of the detector. If you intentionally disassemble the detector, you must also delete it in the control center.
