JA-183M Wireless magnetic door detector
Instruction Manual
The JA-183M is a component of Jablotron’s alarm system. It is designed to
detect the opening of doors, windows, etc. The battery-powered detector
communicates via Jablotron
radio protocol.
Installation
Installation shall only be undertaken by technicians holding a certificate
issued by an authorized distributor.
Choose a suitable place for the detector’s installation. The detector
reacts to the removal of its magnet unit. The electronics should be installed
onto the non-moving part of windows or doors, and the magnet onto the moving
part. Avoid locating it directly on a metal frame as metal influences the
functioning of the magnetic sensor and radio communication.
-
Open the detector cover by pressing the tab in. (Fig. 1)
Fig. 1 and 2 -
Screw the rear cover to the solid part of the door/window. The marks A and B show the right position of the magnet. (Fig. 3)

Attach the magnet to the moving part of the window. The standard magnet in a plastic housing opposite the A arrow and the whorl shape magnet against the B arrow. Its distance from the detector should be as small as possible when the door/window is closed. In the picture, Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 are shown the reaction areas for magnets in millimeters in three axes of movement and on the nonmagnetic/magnetic surface. Note: see the supplied plastic part to compensate for the possible height difference for magnet A.
Fig. 5 and 6 -
Enroll the detector into the control panel (receiver). Check its manual for more info. The enrollment signal is transmitted when the battery is inserted. Note: To enroll a detector after having already connected a battery, first disconnect the battery, and press and release the tamper sensor to discharge any remaining charge to get the device ready for enrolment.
-
Set the detector’s reaction See settings chapter.
-
Mount the front cover onto the rear part
-
Test the detector’s function. 8. The tab can be fixed using supplied screw (Fig. 2).
Settings
The DEL position of the jumper provides entrance & exit delays for
detectors installed at a building entrance. INS position allows the detector
to instantly trigger alarm activation if the control panel is armed.
Note: This DIP switch (INS/DEL) only has an effect if the detector has a
natural reaction assigned to its address in the Jablotron control panel. It
also has no effect when used with a JA-182N or JA-180N receiver.
The detector has two different modes. The mode is indicated by one or two
short flashes when the battery is inserted.
One flash means that it indicates both opening and closing the door or window.
The control panel knows the status of doors/windows. Two flashes mean the
pulse mode in which the detector indicates only opening the door or window.
The mode can be set (changed) when keeping the tamper switch pressed while
installing the battery for 3 to 5 seconds.
Testing the detector
15 minutes after closing the detector cover, the LED indicates detector triggering. The strength and quality of detector signals can be measured by the control panel in Service mode.
Battery replacement
The detector monitors its battery voltage and if too low, a report is sent to
the control panel to inform the installer or user. The detector continues to
function and shows each triggering of the detector with a flash of its LED.
Battery replacement should not be delayed by more than two weeks. This should
be done by a qualified technician with the control panel in Service mode.
Note: If a partly discharged battery is inserted then the LED start
flashing for one minute. Then the detector will work but the Lo Bat signal
will be sent to the control panel. Expired batteries should not be thrown into
the garbage, but disposed of according to local regulations.
Removing the detector from the system
If a detector is removed, the control panel reports the removal. The
detector has to be deleted in the control panel before intentional removal.
