Jablotron JA80L Users Manual

The JA-80L is a component of Jablotron’s Oasis 80 alarm system. It can

be used as the following:

• An indoor alarm siren

• A wireless door bell

• A detector-triggered chime

• A sounder for entrance and exit delay beeps

• Thief verification

The siren is mains-powered
and communicates via OASIS
wireless protocol. It can form
part of an alarm system or be
used as a stand-alone device.
When used as part of an alarm
system, it sounds when an
intruder alarm has been
triggered and confirms the
actual presence of an intruder
in the building by sending a
tamper signal when it gets
unplugged. Installation shall
only be undertaken by qualified
technicians holding a training
certificate issued by an
authorized distributor.

Enrolling the JA-80L to an Oasis control panel

1. Switch the control panel to service mode and key in 1 (to enter

enrollment mode).

2. Plug the siren into a mains socket. The JA-80L indicator will turn on

and off which confirms enrollment.

3. Exit enrollment mode by pressing the # key on the system keypad.

Notes:

a) Several sirens can be enrolled to the control panel if desired.
b) If the siren fails to enroll (its indicator will not turn off), check:

• Is the control panel in enrollment mode ?

• Is the siren set to factory default settings ? If not, reset the

siren.

c) An enrolled siren generates a siren sound if an alarm is triggered

in the control panel, and can generate beeps for entrance and exit
delays (programmable in the control panel).

d) The siren can be simultaneously used as a wireless doorbell or a

detector-triggered chime. To do this the doorbell button and the
relevant detectors have to be enrolled to the siren (after the siren
has been enrolled to the control panel – see later text).

e) If the siren gets unplugged from the mains while sounding an

alarm, the siren immediately sends a tamper signal to trigger a
tamper alarm in the control panel.

The siren’s radio signals can be checked and measured by the control
panel in service mode. To make the siren transmit a test signal, press its
button.

The siren can also indicate setting (arming) the system by a single beep
and unsetting (disarming) by two beeps. To enable these beeps press the
siren’s button three times in rapid succession. Two beeps confirm the
successful activation of this feature. To disable this feature simply press the
button three times as before. Confirmation is indicated by a beep.

Enrolling a doorbell button to the JA-80L siren.

Up to 8 wireless buttons of the type RC-8x can be enrolled to the siren

as follows:

1. Plug the siren into a mains socket and if its indicator starts flashing,

then enrolling devices to the siren can begin. In this case, the siren
still has factory-default settings, i.e. no devices have been enrolled
yet. If the indicator is continuously lit after the siren is plugged in, then
press and hold it (while it is lit) until it starts flashing. This means that
something has already been previously enrolled and the mode being
opened now is for adding more devices.

2. An RC-8x can be enrolled by activating it (pressing its button).

Successful enrollment is confirmed by a melody sound. By activating
the RC-8x repeatedly, you can scroll through the 8 possible melodies
which can be linked to RC-8x activation.

3. If all the desired RC-8x units have been enrolled, exit the siren’s

enrollment mode by pressing its button. This method allows the
buttons to be added to the previously enrolled devices

Detector-triggered chime mode

If it is desired to indicate the triggering of a wireless JA-8x detector by a

chime sound, then enroll the detector to the siren as follows:

1. Plug the siren into a mains socket. If its indicator starts flashing, detector
enrollment can proceed immediately (no previously enrolled devices).

If however, the indicator lights continuously, press and hold the siren
button (while it is lit) until it starts flashing (devices previously enrolled).

2. To enroll a detector, press and release its tamper switch. A sound is then
heard (by pressing and releasing the tamper switch you can scroll through
the 8 possible melodies for linking to the detector).

3. After all the desired detectors have been enrolled, exit enrollment mode by
pressing the siren button.

In addition to chime sounds being activated by detector triggering, they can
also be activated by a JA-80F keypad’s IN input being triggered (to enroll
a keypad, press and release its tamper switch).

Maximum number of enrolled devices

Up to 8 RC-8x units or detectors, and a single Oasis JA-80 control
panel can be enrolled to a single JA-80L siren. Each one of these
things can be enrolled to as many sirens or other receivers as desired.

Deleting all enrolled devices (RESET)

All enrolled devices can be deleted as follows:

1. Unplug the siren from the mains socket.

2. Press and hold the siren button while plugging in the siren again.

3. Keep the button pressed until two beeps are heard which confirm a

reset.

4. The indicator keeps flashing (device enrollment mode).

5. To exit enrollment mode, press the siren button (indicator turns off).
If the indicator fails to flash after the two reset beeps, it means that the

siren is within radio range of the control panel to which it has been
previously enrolled. In such a case, all devices previously enrolled to
the siren have been deleted except for the control panel. If you
deliberately do not want to use the siren with the control panel
anymore, it must first be deleted in the control panel before resetting
the siren (in control panel enrollment mode select the siren’s address
and press and hold key 2 on the system keypad to delete the siren).

Sound volume

The siren has two selectable sound volume levels. To switch
between these two levels, press and hold the siren button while the
unit is still plugged into a mains socket (the volume selected is
indicated by a sound). This volume setting only has an effect on
doorbell sounds, detector-triggered chime sounds and entrance/exit
beeps. Alarm siren sounds are always set to maximum loudness.

Indicator functions

In normal use, the indicator flashes when the doorbell button is
pressed or when the siren sounds. If the siren is enrolled to an Oasis
control panel, then it indicates the status of the programmable output
PGY with a continuous light. The indicator flashes in enrollment mode.
