JA-180IR wireless optical barrier
JA-180IR wireless optical barrier 1 /2 MKU54000
The JA-180IR optical barrier is designed for the indication of a
breach into a protected area by crossing the IR line between the
transmitter and the receiver. The barrier is a product by Optex
supplemented with transmitters compatible with OASiS systems, this
being both in the transmitting and receiving part of the barrier. The
device power supply is ensured by high-capacity lithium batteries. The
signal indicating that a transmitter and receiver battery is low is
transmitted to the control panel. The barrier occupies two enrollment
positions in the system. Barrier activation is reported by the receiving
part of the barrier (the position where its radio transmitter is enrolled in
the system). Both parts of the barrier can send a tamper signal to the
control panel. The transmitters regularly perform automatic tests and
report their status to the system.
Barrier installation
The following instructions should be observed when selecting a
place for barrier installation:
xBoth units must be installed onto a stationary construction (e.g. a wall
or a thick post) at the same height and should face each other.
xThe area between the barrier units must not be blocked by any
bushes or tall grass.
xThere can be up to a 60 m distance between the units.
xThe receiver unit must not be affected by direct sunlight.
xThe units should be installed 0.7 – 1 m above the ground.
xIf the IR beam is parallel to a wall, there must be at least a 1 m
distance between the beam and the wall.
xIf multiple barriers are used, their IR beams should not interfere with
each other.

Installation steps:
The transmitting unit (marked TRANSMITER) and the receiving unit
(marked RECEIVER) are of identical mechanical construction.

1. Unscrew the rear part screws and remove the unit bases.
2. Install the bases onto the selected places, either directly on a
surface (wall) – in such a case punch two holes through the base
– or onto a post 43 – 48 mm in diameter using the supplied clips
and clips.
3. When installing the base, always check whether the rubber tamper
contact pin is functional.

5. Perform optical adjustment and unit transmitter setting.
6. Screw the upper covers back in and test the barrier functioning.
Enrolling the barrier transmitters
into the system
The transmitters for wireless communication are located in the rear
part underneath the optical section. The barrier occupies two
enrollment positions in the system. Barrier activation is reported by the
receiving part of the barrier (the position where its radio transmitter is
enrolled in the system). Both parts of the barrier can send a tamper
signal to the control panel.
Always use two SAFT LSH20 lithium batteries to power the
barriers (they are included in the package). The batteries should be
inserted very carefully to avoid damage to the transmitter wiring. When
the first battery has been installed, the transmitter sends a signal
which enrolls it to the control panel (the control panel must be in
enrollment mode at that time – see the manual). Use switch no. 2 to
set the required system reaction to movement (ON = instant or OFF =
delayed). Switch no. 1 should be left in the OFF position

Setting up the optical part of the barrier
The optical part of the barrier must be adjusted so that the optical
parts facing each other are physically aligned. Both units are equipped
with adjusting elements for the adjustment of direction and a view-
finder for precise adjustment. The unit opposite the one you want to
adjust must be in the centre of the aiming cross and the cross must be
in the centre of the view-finder.

Fig. 5 Setting up the optical part
When the setting is complete, it is followed by adjustment of the
receiver unit:
Connect a voltmeter to the ter-
minals and select the 0-10V range.
Watch the LED on the right

A permanently lit LED on the right indicates that the beam has been
interrupted (or wrongly adjusted). The better the beam reception, the
longer the breaks between the LED flashes. When the LED stops
flashing, continue looking for the ideal position indicated by the highest
voltage measured on the voltmeter.
Setting up the electronic part of the barrier
Both units are equipped with setting switches. The switch located on
the side of the units (on the optical part) allows barrier beam
modulation frequency adjustment from 1 to 4. This setting is useful
only for a combination of multiple JA-180IR barriers where a problem
with interference might appear. For more information see the original
user.
There is a DIP switch with five switches. The first two positions are
used to set the reaction time to an interruption of the beam. The
shorter the time, the more precise the interruption detection, but also
the greater the susceptibility to false alarms during worsened optical
conditions (snow, fog, ...)
Fig. 7 Reaction time setting
It is possible to set a 2-minute sleep time after an alarm (beam
interruption) in order to save batteries. This setting is done by
switching switch no. 3 (receiver unit), or no. 1 (transmitter unit) to the
ON position. Switches 4 and 5 (receiver unit), or better 2 and 3
(transmitter unit) are set as a default and you should leave them in the
OFF position for the correct functioning of the device.
Operation testing
The LEDs on the barrier have the following indication functions

low. Both batteries (SAFT LSH20 lithium batteries) should always be
replaced at the same time.

Fig. 9 Barrier function test
Perform a barrier test in three places (A B and C). The setting is
completed only if the barrier reacts successfully in all three positions.
You should also check the signal transmission to the system control
panel. Only then is it possible to put back the unit covers and secure
them.
Checking the status of and replacing
batteries
The detector checks battery status automatically and if the batteries
are running low, it informs the system. The detector remains fully
functional. The batteries should be replaced as soon as possible
(within 1 week). Use SAFT LSH20 batteries exclusively and always
replace both at the same time.
