CA-340 modular car alarm 1/4 VAV50204
Car alarm CA-340 “Nestor” functions, controls
The CA-340 car alarm is intended fo r installation inside a vehicle w ith a 12 or 24V power supply and negative ground. It is protected against the reversal of poles and overvoltage, the activation inputs are protected against short circuit and voltage induction.
A built-in shock detector with adjustable sensitivity controlled with a trimmer
inside the unit. Its activation can trigger a warning (1s siren chirp), trigger an alarm or do both. If an alarm function is set, the unit uses a filt er eliminating accidental shocks (e.g. caused by a heavy vehicle passing by …). The alarm is triggered only when the first shock is followed by another within 15 seconds. If both the siren and the alarm are set, the first shock triggers a short siren chirp and the second shock (within 15 s) triggers the alarm.
A voltage drop detector registers sudden voltage drops caused by an
appliance which switches on when the a larm is armed (protection against a mechanical breach of the central locking system). The de tector is blocked for 20 minutes after arming (allows the radiator cooling fan to wind down). You can also program it to remain switched off permanently if you use independent appliances in the car (heater, refrigerator).
The car alarm is equipped with several contact sensors, whose number
depends on how the alarm is connected (see below).
Up to 8 JA-8x wireless detectors can be enrolled to the car alarm. These
can be used to detect motion inside the vehic le or the brea king of windo ws or to guard the garage in which the vehicle is parked.
A programmable output which can trigger the power supply to auxiliary
detectors (microwave, tilt) that are activated when the alarm is armed or it can provide a signal for the controlling of a CR-11A (AUX) module.
The immobiliser circuit can be used to immobilize the ignition, the fuel pump
or the ignition circuit. When the AUTOIMO function is active, the immobiliser is activated automatically if the ignition key is switched off for more than 5 minutes. The AUTOIMO can be switc hed off by a rem ote contr ol butt on.
When an alarm is triggered, a siren is activated for 30s. When the alarm is
terminated in a regular way, the siren is switched off immediately.
The siren can also be used for the acoustic confirmation of arming and
disarming (optional parameter). For other functions, see Acoustic signaling.
When you leave your vehicle in a car servicing company for maintenance,
the AUTOIMO function and the acoustic signaling can easily be temporarily disabled.
Optical signaling of arming, disarming and alarms. The car alarm can
control the direction indicators (flashers) in three optional modes.
Boot opening. When the alarm is armed, you can use a remote control to
open the car boot if its mechanism allows it. (The BLK output function must be set to control the boot)
PANIC is a function which allows triggering a siren with a remot e contro l both
in an armed and an unarmed s tate (by pressing both buttons at the same time). It can also help you find your vehicle quickly in a crowded car park.
The car alarm is equipped with a Valet button for emergency disarming. The
button can also serve for the setting of optional parameters.
The information concerning operati ng status of the alarm is si gnaled with an
LED.
The car alarm settings and parameters can be changed ea sily using the
CA-340PRG wireless module connected to a computer.
Car alarm controls
The car alarm can be armed by locking the vehicle with the original remote
control or by pressing the key on the RC-8x remote control (depending on the means of connection).
Partial setting. When the setting key i s pressed repeatedly during the exit delay (20s after the alarm setting ) the shock and voltage drop detectors and wireless detectors guarding the inside of the vehicle are disabled. NOTE: this function is not available when the car alarm is con nected for controlling with the original remote control without using a CAN-Bus (= AL1 input is set to confirm arming and disarming)
The car alarm can be disarmed by unlocking the vehicle with the original remote control or by pressing the key on the RC-8x remote control (depending
on the means of connection).
Rearming function If the car alarm is unarmed and no sensor is activated within one minute (no one gets into the car), the alarm is armed again. If the alarm controls the central locking system, the vehicle is locked simultaneously. This function can be set by parameter 2 (REARM).
Boot opening. The car booth can be opened by pressing both re mote contro l buttons (the availability of this function depends on the means of installation).
Alarm
When armed, the car alarm checks the DOOR contact switches, INP1, INP2, INP3 sensors where boot, bonnet or other detectors can be connected and manipulation with the ignition key. It also reacts to the activation of the integrated shock detector, voltage drop and enroll ed w irele ss det ec tors. T he w ireless dete cto rs can be set to a 20s entrance delay (see the detector manual). If any of the alarm sensors are activated in the period of guarding, a 30s alarm is triggered. When the alarm has finished, the car alarm remains active.
If the car alarm is controlled with original remote controls, the currently
active alarm can be terminated by unlocking the vehicle using the remote control. The car alarm is concurrently disarmed.
When the car alarm is controlled with an RC-8x remote control, pressing
the or keys can terminate the currently active alarm. Pressing the
key again disarms the alarm.
Emergency disarming – if the remote control gets lost or is faulty, the car
alarm can be disarmed by pressing the hidden Valet button as follows:
Open the car doors (triggers an alarm), switch on the ignition key and press the
Valet button. The emergency disarming can be disabled (parameter 4).
LED visual signaling
The LED indicates the ala rm s tatu s as fo llow s:
the LED is off - the car alarm is unarmed permanently lit - exit delay in progress regular short flashes - the car alarm is armed rapid flashing - entrance delay in progress regular short fading - AUTOIMO function activated
When the ignition key is switched on, the LED indicates the number of enrolled
RC-8x controllers .
Three alarm chirps during unarming i ndicate that there has been an alarm since the last setting. When you turn on the ignitio n key, the LED then indicates the cause of the alarm. The signaling i s repea ted 5 ti mes. The nu mber o f flash es indicates the sensor w hich tr igger ed the a larm:
1 flash - the door sens or (DOOR) was activated 2 flashes - the INP1 sensor was activated 3 flashes - the INP2 sensor was activated 4 flashes - the INP3 sensor was activated 5 flashes – the voltage drop sensor (an appliance was switched on) 6 flashes – shock detector alarm 7 flashes – the ignition key was switched on in an armed state 1 to 8 fadings – wireless detector (according to the order in which it is enrolled)
The cause of the last two alarms can be viewed retroac tively. If you press the Valet button when the ignition key is on, the LED indicates t he cause of the last alarm 10 times successively. If you press the Valet button again during the signaling, the cause of the previous alarm is also shown ten times. The indication is terminated when the ignition key is switched off.
Acoustic signaling
Setting: 1 chirp * Partial arming: two quick chirps Unarming: 2 chirps * Unarming after an alarm: 3 chirps
* can be disabled by setting partial acoustic signaling Fault signaling:
When armed, the car alarm tests the sensors for approx. 6s. If any of the
sensors is activated duri ng this pe riod of time (e.g. due to an impro perly cl osed door) it is signaled with 4 quick chirps. The alarm is armed but the sensor which remained active is disconnected (it can react only when it is deactivated again –the door is closed, etc.)
If a CA-340 SIR wireless antenna is installed, then the activation of the engine
compartment switch is signaled with 5 quick chirps.
If the alarm emits 6 quick chirps, it signals that the battery in one of the wireless
detectors is low. When the ignition key is switched on, it is possible to find out which detector it is according to the fading of the LED (1 to 8 – pursuant to the order in which the detectors are enrolled).
Temporary silent control and disabling of the
AUTOIMO
If it is necessary due to any reason (putting the vehicle in a car servicing company for maintenance, holiday) the acoustic signaling and AUTOIMO function can easily be temporarily disabled by switching off the ignition key while holding the Valet button. It is confirmed with an acoustic signal. These functions can be enabled again in the same way, on condition that they are not disabled permanently in the settings.
Maintenance
The device does not require any special maintenance. We recommend regular inspections of door and bonnet contact functioning, or possibly of the auxiliary detectors. This inspection should be performed by a professional installer with whom regular annual inspections should be arranged.

Car alarm CA-340 “Nestor” installation
We recommend having the car alarm installed by an authorized service company. Improper installation can result in damage to your vehicle. The car alarm manufacturer shall not be held responsible for any damage caused by incorrect installation or misuse of the product .
The immobilizer relay contact of car alarm is connected only in disarmed mode and if the ignition is on. Do not block circuits that are under voltage while the ignition is off. It could cause a serious damage of the vehicle.
The SIR output switches power supply. If is installation with 24V power supply there must be used the siren t ype SA-606-24V or other type for 24V instead of standard packaged si ren.
First, disconnect the car battery. Nobody should be inside a vehicle equipped with airbags during the manipulation of the battery (disconnecting, connecting). Keep in mind that some devices equipped with a memory can be erased when the battery is disconnected. Attach the newly installed wires to the original bundl es. When making connections use a crimping tool fit for this pur pose. If possible , avoid drilli ng into me tal part s dur ing installation. If you have to drill any holes, make sure you avoid damaging any other parts of the vehicle. The basic car alarm unit is suitable for installation in the passenger compartment (the best positi on would be under the dash board).
The car alarm functions can be set comfortably using the CA-340PRG wireless
programming module.

Programmable functions
The car alarm offers optional functi on p aramete rs (s ee the table) w hic h ca n be set
in the programming mode. Entering the pro gramming mode:
1. Press the Valet button and hold it for 4 – 6 s and then switch on the ignition key
Entering the programming mode is confirmed w ith two long chirps of the siren. The alarm concurrently transmits its “enrolm ent code“.
2. It is then necessary to select between optional parameter setting and the
enrolment of wireless detectors. Press the Valet button to enter optional
parameter setting and then follow section 6. If you want to enter the wireless device enrolment mode, switch off the ignition key (within 2 s). Then follow
Section 3.
3. Now you can enroll the RC-8x remote controls * (max. 4). Th e remote controls
can be enrolled by pressing both and keys simultaneously for approx. 3 s. The enrolment is confirmed with a siren chirp. All remote controls can be erased by switching off the ignition key for a short tim e. Pre ss t he Valet button to continue
to internal detector enrolment. Switching off the ignition key for more than 3 s terminates the programming mode (the sir en emits two s hort chirps ).
4. Enrolment of detectors installed in the vehicle* (internal one s). This group includes detectors guarding the interior of the vehicle (not if the alarm is armed partially). If a remote control is enrolled in this group, it can be used to trigger a PANIC alarm. Internal detectors can be erased by sw itching off the ignition key for a short time. Press the Valet button to continue to external detector enrolment. Switching off the ignition key for more than 3 s terminates the programming mode (the siren emits two short chirps).
5. Enrolment of external detectors* (guarding of a garage). Detectors in this group are active both during partial and complete arming. The JA-80A wireless siren can also be enrolled here. External detectors can be erased by switching off the ignition key for a short time. A maximum of 8 detectors can be enrolled. Press the Valet button to continue to optional parameter setting pursuant to the following article. Switching off the ignition key for more than 3s terminates the programming mode (the siren emits two short chi rps).
6. Now you can set the first parameter. The parameter setting is signaled with an LED (on / off). Changes can be performed by switching off the ignition key for a short time (no longer than 3 s).
7. Press the Valet button to go on to the next parameter. The number of siren chirps indicates the parameter which you are currently setting. The tenth parameter is signaled with a long siren chirp, while from the eleventh parameter onwards the siren signals only parameter units (e.g. 11= 1 chirp, etc).
8. Switching off the ignition key for more than 3s terminates the programming mode without saving (the siren emits two short chirps).
9. To save your settings you have to go through all 18 parameters. When the last parameter has been set, press the Valet button once more. The termination of the mode is confirmed with a long chirp of t he siren.
* PLEASE NOTE! Enrolling the first device erases all previously enrolled devices in the
given group (you should therefore gradually enroll all devices which you want to use)
Wireless components of the OASIS system
It is possible to use motion detectors, glass break detectors and magnetic
detectors (JA-85P, JA-85B, JA- 81M) to guar d the vehic le interior or a garag e. The maximum of 8 detectors can be enrolled. A low battery in a detector is signaled with its LED, the car alarm LED an d also with a siren when the system is arme d.
The CA-340SIR wireless siren with the bonnet contact input can be installed in
the engine compartme nt, so that it is not necessary to i nstall the wires in the vehicle interior.
The alarm can also be signaled via JA-80A and JA-80L internal wireless sirens.
(when using JA-80A you have to take into a ccount that th ere is a delay depending on the jumper setting in the siren)
The alarm can be enrolled to the OASIS electronic home security system as a
detector.
W ireless detectors have a tamper contact. Manipulation with detectors (when
changing batteries) is th us pos sib le on ly if th e ign itio n key is switch ed on and th e
car alarm is unarmed. Otherwise al arm is trigger ed. For more detailed information concerning wireless components for the guarding of objects go to www.jablotron.com.

Connection without a CAN-Bus converter,
controlling with RC-8x remote controls
Connection pursuant to Fig 1, setting pursuant to profile 1. The values shown in the table in bold letters are the default ones The profile is defined by parameter 1 setting.
A description of individual wire functions is available on page 2.
Vehicle status information is obtained via direct connection to the ignition circuit and door, bonnet and boot switches. A thus connected car alarm can control the central locking of the vehicle. It is possible to set an extended locking impulse which can be used to close the windows of certain vehicle types after arming.
Connection with a CAN-Bus converter,
controlling with RC-8x remote controls
Setting pursuant to profile 1.
Information about the vehicle status (ignition key, door, bonnet, boot) is obtained via a CAN-Bus converter.
NOTE: The converter cannot be used to control the central locking of the vehicle.
Direction indicator (flasher) connection
Optical signaling of arming, disarming and alarm is possible in three modes.
Direct connecti on to the light bulb circuits. Connec tion pursuant to Fig. 1 .
The power supply is directed to the relay contact via a 15A fuse. The contact output is forked using diodes and i t is then connected to the left and r ight direction indicato r light .
Connection via a warning light switch, pursuant to Fig. 2. When this
option is selected, the INP1 input al ways has a feedback function (counting the flashes) and it has to b e connected to a direction indicator light power circuit. It is therefore not possible to use this optical s ig naling when the alarm is controlled with the original remote control without using a CAN-Bus converter (this option is superior to the setting parameter 12 of profile 2, INP1 then has no function for confirmation of disarming or alarm input). The flashing can then be controlled with the following options:
„switch“ – the relay is switched if the direction indicator lights
should flash
„button“ - the relay gives an impulse to begin and finish flashing

Connection with a CAN-Bus converter,
controlling with the original remote controls
Connection pursuant to Fig 2, settings pursuant to profile 2. The values shown in the table in bold letters are the default ones The profile is defined by parameter 1 setting.
A thus connected car alarm obtains vehicle status information (ignition key, vehicle locking and unlocking, door, bonnet and boot opening) via the CAN­Bus converter. The INP1 input can be used as an alarm input for auxiliary detectors. If the vehicle is not equipped with e.g. a bonnet switch, it is possible to disconnect the corresponding input from the MCB-01 converter and use it for direct connection of an additionally installed switch. If RC-8x controllers are enrolled in this control mode, they can be used to disarm and arm the alarm, but they will not unlock or lock the vehicle. If necessary, the vehicle unlocking and locking impulses can be generated using the CR-11A module.
Connection without a CAN-Bus converter,
controlling with original remote controls
The principle is similar to that in Fig 2, setting pursuant to profile 2, the vehicle status information is obtained via a direct connection to the central locking of the vehicle, switches and ignition circuit. In this case the INP1 input is used to confirm arming and disarming (direction indicator lights flashing).
When you use the direction indicator lights to confirm unarming, they cannot concurrently be controlled with the car alarm.
A thus connected car alarm monitors the status of the central locking. If the vehicle is locked and the direction indicator lights flash concurrently (pursuant to parameter 13 setting), the car alarm is armed. If the vehicle is unlocked and the direction indicator lights flash concurrently, the car alarm is unarmed. The flashing of the direction indicator lights is always required for the disarming of the car alarm. If, therefore, the doors are unlocked with a lock (not confirmed with direction indicator lights), the car alarm is not unarmed and an alarm is triggered. If RC-8x controllers are enrolled in this control mode, they can be used to disarm and arm the alarm, but they will not unlock or lock the vehicle. If necessary, the vehicle unlocking and locking impulses can be generated using the CR-11A module.
