The JA-80X phone-line communicator
Installation manual
The JA-80X communicator is a component of Jablotron systems
of the JA-8x series. It is designed to be installed within the control
panel housing. Main features:
o Alarm voice-reporting.
o ARC (Alarm Receiving Centre) communication.
o Remote access via a telephone keypad.
o Backup option for the JA-80Y GSM communicator.
The JA-80X only uses the tone dialling method.
1. Installation
x The communicator can be connected to the control panel’s
digital bus via a four-cord RJ cable. Use connectors marked RS
LINE on the communicator. Both RS LINE connectors have
parallel wiring, thus they can also be used for splitting the
control panel digital bus.
x Connect the communicator to a telephone line via the cable
supplied with the package. Use a socket marked LINE on the
communicator.
x Additional telephone devices (telephone, facsimile machine,
modem etc.) can be connected using the connector marked
“TEL”.
x When the control panel is in normal stand-by mode, the phone
line and any attached device will operate as normal.
x The communicator can only be connected to analogue phone
line and must not be connected to a dual or a grouping
extension-line.
Note: The communicator must be plugged directly into a
telephone line socket. All other devices should be connected to the
communicator output marked TEL.
2. Alarm voice-reporting
Depending on the type of events, the communicator is capable
of sending 5 assigned alarm reports to up to 4 pre-programmed
phone numbers.
x With the control panel being in the unset state, enter Service
mode by keying-in *0 SC (SC=service code, 8080 by factory
default) on the system keypad.
x Key-in the requested programming sequence(s). Any sequence
currently being entered can be escaped from by pressing #.
x Completing a sequence entry is confirmed by a beep. After
completing all the requested sequences, exit Service mode by
pressing the # key.
x Depending on system configuration, telephone numbers can
also be entered in operating mode.
2.1. Programming telephone numbers for voice
reporting sequence 71 Mxxx xx*0
To program tel. numbers used for voice reporting enter:
71Mxx... xx *0
where:
M is the phone number memory 1 to 4
xx...xx is the desired phone number (max.16 digits)
Special codes can be put into the phone number:
Code : *by pressing *7
#by pressing *8
3 s pause by pressing *6
Example: Entering 712 483 123 456 *0 will store the number 483
123 456 in memory 2.
To erase a number from memory M enter:
71M*0
where: Mis memory 1 to 4
Voice reports are sent to pre-programmed phone numbers in the
order they are stored. A single report to a particular tel. number
starts with the number being dialled. A 6 sec waiting period
follows. After this period voice message No. 1 is played (alarm
system identification) followed by an event description message.
This is repeated 4 times after which the communicator hangs up.
Normally, voice reporting is not terminated until after all the
numbers have been reported to. However, you can stop reporting
by alarm cancellation or by pressing the #key on the phone which
is currently being reported to.
If enabled, ARC reporting is performed prior to telephone voice
reporting.
Note: Do not program emergency call numbers!
As a factory default, all phone number memories are erased.
2.2. Limited event-reporting
sequence 792x
The communicator has a special option for the 2nd tel. number
such that only INTRUSION or PANIC alarms are reported to that
number (other types of alarm events like Fire, Fault or Tamper are
not reported).
During the call to the 1st tel. number the user can decide whether
the alarm report should be also forwarded to the remaining tel.
numbers or ha can terminate further voice call reporting by
pressing # on the phone keypad (e.g. in case of the false alarm).
To program the feature enter:
792x
where:
x=0 only INTRUSION or PANIC alarms are reported to
the 2nd tel. number
x=1 all events reported to all numbers
The factory default setting is 7921
This setting doesn't apply to transmissions to the ARC, which are
made via voice messages.
2.3. Voice message recording
You can record voice messages via any phone using DTMF tone
dialling. First, call the communicator’s phone number. During the
dial-up period, enter 72 on the system keypad. The communicator
will answer the call which is indicated by a beep. Press a key 0to
8on the phone keypad according to which of the following actions
you wish to perform:
0 – Replay all messages
1 – Record message No. 1 (Alarm reports) – identify your
alarm system (your premises)
2 – Record message No. 2 (Intrusion)

The JA-80X communicator 2 / 4 MKR51103
3 – Record message No. 3 (Fire)
4 – Record message No. 4 (Tamper)
5 – Record message No. 5 (Panic)
6 – Record message No. 6 (Fault)
7 – Record message No. 7 (Welcome to OASiS) – greeting
8 – Record message No. 8 (Enter your access code)
Pressing the key invokes a timer with beep indication. Five beeps
are to be heard in total with the last beep extended. After this the
recording starts – you record a message by speaking into the
phone’s microphone. The message duration is limited to 9 sec for
message No. 1, and to 3 sec for any of other messages.
After being recorded, the message is immediately re-played. A
message ending is indicated by two beeps. Replaying all
messages (0) can be terminated by pressing *. The recording of
any message can be terminated by pressing #or by hanging up.
Recording the voice message is stopped after hanging up.
Notes:
x You can also remotely record or modify voice messages via a
phone in a call to the control panel. This requires the control
panel to be in Service mode (on the phone keypad, you enter
72x as described above).
x You can change recorded messages anytime using the above
procedure. Messages are stored in a non-volatile memory so
the JA-80X will not forget them when its power supply is
disconnected.
3. ARC reporting
Contact ID (CID) protocol is used for communication with Alarm
Receiving Centres (ARC). If at least one phone number is pre-
programmed for ARC reporting then the communicator tries to
send a report about any event detected by the control panel (as
requested for ARC reporting). Events are reported in the same
order as they are detected. A successfully transferred report
causes a “Report sent to ARC” event report to be stored in control
panel memory.
If transfer to ARC1 is not successful, the communicator starts the
transfer to ARC2 depending on whether a second ARC is pre-
programmed. If the transfer to ARC2 is also not successful, the
communicator tries to transfer the report to ARC1 again and this is
repeated four times. Unsuccessful transmission results in “Report
not sent to ARC” after eight (four) attempts. Then a standard voice
message is sent to the phone numbers according to the event and
settings. After that there are two other attempts (cycles) to deliver
the message to the ARC after 5 minutes and after 10 minutes.
An undelivered report is stored in the memory and is reported
together with the next report – if possible.
Note: Contact ID protocol ensures that all the relevant events are
reported automatically. An idea of the data format is provided in
the table below.
3.1. ARC phone numbers
sequence 75 Mxxx xx*0
To program tel. numbers of requested ARCs enter:
75Mxx .x*0
where:
M is the ARC memory index: 1=main, 2=back-up
xx..x is the ARC phone number (max.16 digits)
To erase a number from memory M enter: 75M*0
3.2. Installation (alarm system) ID for ARC use
sequence 76 Mx..x*0
The installation’s ID number which is sent to an ARC with every
report can be programmed with:
76x..x*0
where:
xx.x is the installation ID number which identifies your
premises
If a hexadecimal form is needed for the ID specification, use
digits prefixed by “*” for alphabetical characters: *1 = A to *6 = F.
Example: The sequence 7615*1*5*0 will program the hexadecimal
ID 15AE.
3.3. Filtering reported events
sequence 73 nx
Reported events can be filtered according to their type. To
enable/disable reporting events of a particular type (or group of
types) enter:
73nx
where:
n is a group of event types
1–Allevents
2 – Alarm triggering events
3 – Alarm cancellations
4 – Setting/Unsetting (Arming/Disarming)
5–Faults
6 – Maintenance events only
7 – Regular (periodical) reports
x is the Enable/Disable attribute
1–Report
0–Noreport
The factory default setting is 7311.
3.4. ARC report structure
A report to an ARC sent using CID protocol consists of:
installation ID (premises identification), event code, subsystem
number and the number of the source (device or code).

3.5. ARC communication test
sequence 74
To perform the test enter:
74
After a successful transfer the keypad will display “test ok”. An
unsuccessful transfer is indicated by displaying “test error”.
Regular reports (group No. 7) are sent 24 hours after an event
has been reported.
3.6. Using the JA-80X and the JA80Y in
combination
The JA-80X can be used in combination with a JA-80Y GSM
communicator. The communicators can either work in parallel or
the JA-80X can operate as a backup device to the JA-80Y. In this
case, any unsuccessful attempt of the JA-80Y to report events via
GSM is followed by JA-80X voice telephone reporting.
GSM report faults are indicated by reporting “No ARC report
sent” events to the control panel memory.
Use spacing posts to install the JA-80X above the JA-80Y in the
control panel.
Notes:
x This option requires the JA-80Y to be pre-programmed by
instruction 081.
x Using two communicators in combination can reduce the
internal antenna‘s working range. If this is a problem you can
use some of Jablotron’s external antennas designed for OASiS
systems.
3.7. ARC reporting mode
sequence 791x
To program reporting mode enter:
791x
where:
x = 0 no ARC reporting from the JA-80X
x = 1 the JA-80X operates as a back-up device for
ARC1 reporting
x = 2 the JA-80X operates as a back-up device for
ARC2 reporting
x = 3 the JA-80X reports unconditionally (this requires
the installation ID and at least one phone number
to be pre-programmed)
The factory default setting is 7910.
After a JA-80X back-up report (x = 1 or 2), the JA-80Y will
perform reporting as soon as GSM communication is re-
established.
3.8. Telephone line monitoring
sequence 793x
If this function is enabled, the dialler will monitor readiness of
the telephone line. If the line is not ready it indicates problem
on the keypad and to control panel’s events memory will be
written a report “External communication fault”.
To program the feature enter:
793x
where:
x = 0 monitoring disabled
x = 1 monitoring enabled
The factory default setting is 7930 (does not comply with EN
50131-1!)
3.9. Sensitivity to signals
sequence 794x
This setting allows you to set a higher sensitivity to the line signal.
This can help in cases where the quality or level of the signal is
low.
794x
where:
x-0basic sensitivity (default)
x-1 higher sensitivity
3.10. Busy – line detection
sequence 795x
If this function is enabled, the dialler will check for the busy tone
after dialling each phone number. If the line is busy it hangs up
and continues dialling the other numbers.
The attempt is repeated in a standard way (eight / four attempts
for communication to the ARC, four attempts for voice messages
795x
where:
x-0detection is disabled (default)
x-1 detection is enabled
4. Remote access via a telephone line
The JA-80X communicator makes it possible to operate the
system remotely via a phone line by temporarily authorizing a
phone keypad. After a call request has been received, the
communicator will wait for a pre-programmed ringing period and
then answer the call. Subsequently, message No. 8 is replayed
(Enter your access code). After then the communicator waits for
60 sec for a Service, User or MASTER code to be entered.
If an incorrect code is entered, the communicator responds with
message No. 8 and still waits for a correct code to be entered. If
an incorrect code is detected for the second time, the
communicator responds with 4 beeps and hangs up.
A correct code entry is responded to by system status indication:
1 beep – Set (Armed)
2 beeps – Unset (Disarmed)
3 beeps – Service mode
1 long beep + 3 short beeps – Alarm state
Subsequently, the communicator replays message No. 7
“Welcome to OASiS”. The system can then be operated via the
phone keypad, the same way as from the system keypad.
Instruction performance is confirmed by beeps:
1 beep – Setting (Arming)
2 beeps – Unsetting (Disarming)
3 beeps – Entering Service mode
4 beeps – Error
Phone calls are automatically terminated after 60 seconds of
inactivity.
4.1. Ringing period
sequence 77n
To program the ringing period after which the communicator will
answer a call, enter:
77n
where:
n is a number from 0 to 9 with the following
meaning:
n = 1 to 8 the communicator will answer after n
multiplied by 5 seconds of ringing
n = 9 answersafterasecondcall-firsttheremust
be at least one ring, then a pause (5 to
40sec.) and then just after the first ring of
the second call, the call will be answered
n = 0 the communicator will never answer
