The AC-160-C wireless multifunctional relay is a component
of the JABLOTRON 100 system. The relay copies the status
of selected PG outputs when enrolled to the control panel.
It can also be installed as a stand-alone device and it follows status
of up to 64 one–way communicating detectors (JA-15x series)
according to the selected mode (Modes: extended copy, impulse,
change of status, always switches off and block the relay). It has
galvanically isolated relay cont acts for switching power loads of
230 V / 16 A. This product can only be installed by a tr ained
technician with a valid certificat e issued by an authorised
distributor.
Installation
The device can only be connected to
The relay module is meant to be installed into plastic electrical
boxes. There must be a JA-11xR radio module enr olled to the
control panel to ensure cooperation with the system. It occupies
one position in the JA-100 system.
1. Connect the power wires (230 V AC) to the terminals (4), and
turn the power on.
2. Basic procedure:
a. When the relay has been turned on, the LED´s RELAY
b. Using F-Link s oftware, select the required position in the
c. By pressing the Learn/Set (1) button longer than 3 s (until
3. Test the relay function by pressing the button (1). After
approximately 0.5 s the output relay is actived. A switched relay
is indic ated by a red LED (RELAY).
4. Connect the controlled device to the terminals (3).
Note s:
- The relay goes to standby mode, when the mains is cut off or
communic ation is lost with the contr ol panel f or more than
1 minute. When the relay has lost communication with an
enrolled device then the restoration interval is 20 minutes (lost
communic ation is indicated by permanent lighting of the ERR
yellow LED). W hen the mains or communic ation with a control
panel is restored, the relay returns to the status given by
pre-defined settings within 2 minutes (for wireless detectors
with a periodical link test such as the JA-151M, it can take up to
9 minutes).
- It is also possible to enrol the relay to the system by entering
the pr oduction c ode via F-Link software. A sticker with the
production code is on the rear side of the relay. All digits in the
code are required (1400-00-0000-0001)
- JA-18x detectors are not c ompatible with the relay

the yellow LED starts flashing) the relay sends an
enrolling signal to the c ontrol panel. Enrolling to t he
control panel is confirmed when the yellow LED goes off.
.
- Multiple-input detectors such as the JA-150M are always
enrolled to one position and the r elay is only triggered by the
first input of the detector. The second input has no effect.
- After each Learn/Set button press the relay changes its status
after 0.5 s, as well as when an enrollment signal is transmitted
or while entering the relay’s service mode – indicated by the
RELAY LED. W hen a c ontrol panel is already enr olled, the
function can be disabled, s ee the settings below.
Setting the module properties
The module properties can be set in the Devices window of the
F-Link software. W hen at the module position, use the
Internal settings option to open a dialogue window where you can
set the following options:
Manual relay controlling: Enabled: a short learn button (1) press
changes the relay state (switches ON/OFF). Manual control is always
possible even if communication with the control panel is being
performed. Manual control can be completely disabled.
Reacts to PG(s): This option allows selection of the way the relay is
triggered by one or more control panel PG outputs .
Common timer: Determines the period for which the output relay will
be switched ON. The function diff ers according to the pre-set mode of
the associated detector. This parameter serves f or s etting the timing of
the switching impuls e. A status-mode type of detector with an
“extended c opy” reaction set makes the relay stay active f or the whole
time even when the detector goes to standby. The timer can be set in
pre-defined steps or the desired value up to 23h 59min 59s
Enrolled devices: This window includes 64 positions for
enrolling detectors. There are two options to enroll them to the
relay: the first is to enter the production code into the
production code field and the second is enrolling them via the
Learn/S et button for which see chapter
this case if used with JA-100 system it is recommended to use the
internal menu for a final check of the activation modes of enrolled
detectors.
Enrolling the detectors. In
The relay internal settings do not work in
online mode. That´s why it is not possible to
enroll devices via F-Link SW by only
inserting batteries. It is only possible by
entering the serial number and saving the
settings.
Mode: This option determines how the relay will react to the
activation of an enrolled detector.
- None: the detector has no function
- Extended copy: if the associated status-mode detector has
the copy function already set, the relay will be switched ON for
as long as the detector is activated. If the common timer has
been previously pre-set, the relay switches off with this pre-set
delay after detector deactivation.
- Impulse: detector activation will switch ON the relay for a pre-
defined time given by the Common timer
- Change status: detector activation changes the relay status
- Always switching off: detector activation always s witches off
the relay
- Block: A particular active status-mode detector blocks
switching the relay by other detectors for its whole activation
period. If this status-mode detector goes to standby the
Common timer is no longer effective. When blocking is over,
the relay is activat ed again if any status-mode detector is
activated. The blocking is indicated by the green LED flashing,
blocking during other detector activation is indic ated by
alternate flashing in green / red of the RELAY LED.
Stand-alone mode
Up to 64 one-way communicating detectors of the JA-15x series
can be enrolled to the relay. Enrollment and setup of t he detectors
is performed by the Learn/Set butt on (1). The relay can recognize 3

Enrolling the detectors
First of all s elect the mode in which the detector should be
operated and then enroll it.
Procedure:
1. Perform a long pr ess of the Learn/Set button (1) until the yellow
LED starts flashing.
2. When you release the button the relay is ready to receive an
enrolling signal from a detector, confirmed by permanent
lighting of the yellow LED and a flashing red LED. The number
of flashes determines the operation mode to which the detector
will be enrolled. Operation mode s election is performed by
repeatedly briefly pressing the button.
No. of red LED flashes. Mode
1x * * * * Copy (extended)
2x ** ** ** ** Impulse
3x *** *** *** Change status
4x **** **** Always switches off
5x ***** ***** Block
1x longer lit, short pause Mode for deleting detectors
Note: Extended copy – minimum s witching time is 1 s
3. Insert the batteries into the detector – it s ends an enrollment
signal.
4. Enrolling is confirmed by alternate flashing of the LED in r ed
and green.
5. When the enrollment procedur e has been done c orrectly, the
relay goes back to its normal operating mode – the green LED
is ON. This means that if you want to enroll the next detector
you must repeat the whole enrollment procedure.
Erasing the detectors
1. Perform a long pr ess of the Learn/Set button (1) until the yellow
LED starts flashing. Now releas e the button and the yellow LED
indicates permanently and the red LED flashes.
2. By repeated pressing (5x) of the button (1) select the mode
when the red LED lights constantly with a regular short pause.
3. Insert the batteries into the detector which is to be erased.
4. Erasing the detector from the relay is confirmed by alternate
flashing of the red / green LED indicators.
5. When the erasing procedure has been done, the relay goes
back to its normal operating mode.
Common timer setup
1. Perform a long pr ess of the Learn/Set button (1) until the yellow
LED starts flashing. Now releas e the button and the yellow LED
indicates permanently and the red LED flashes.
2. Perform a long pr ess of the Learn/Set button (1) again until the
flashing of the red LED changes to permanent lighting of the
green LED.
3. When the button is releas ed the green LED will flash. The
number of flashes determines the pre-set period of the
Common timer.
4. By repeat ed pressing of the button (1) s elect the required time
of the common timer. Table shows 5 default options. Those
values can not be changed in stand- alone mode. When it is
pre-set by F-Link to a different time than is mentioned (not to
predefined/default values), the green LED lights with a regular
short pause.
No. of green LED flashes. Timer period
1x * * * * 1 s (default)
2x ** ** ** ** 1 min
3x *** *** *** 3 min
4x **** **** 15 min
5x ***** ***** 30 min
1x longer lit, short pause Different settings (via F-Link)
5. Confirm the s elected value by very long pressing
(more than 6 s) until the red/green LED indicators start flashing.
Settings are s aved.
Note: no activity for longer than 1 minute terminates the
setup/enrollment mode, saves the changes and goes to normal
operating mode. To leave the setting/enrollment mode, press the
Learn/S et button (1) for a very long time (more than 6 s) –
a red/gr een LED indic ator flashes briefly and the relay goes to its
normal operating mode.

Reseting the relay
A full relay reset and complete erasing of all enrolled devices is
performed by very long pressing (more than 6 s) of the but ton (1). It
is indicated by alternate flashing in red/green of the RELAY LED
simultaneously with permanent lit of the ERR LED. The Learn/Set
button must be then releas ed (within 3 s) and then s hortly pressed
again (also within 3 s). The relay reset is confirmed by quick
alternate flashing in red/green of the RELAY LED with a yellow
ERR LED. After this only the green and yellow LED stays lit. A
reset doesn´t erase an enrolled control panel currently in service
mode (in this case the yellow LED will not be lit).
