The JA-158P wireless outdoor PIR detector

The JA-158P wireless outdoor PIR detector

1 / 2

MMY51504

The JA-158P is an outdoor intruder wireless detector designed to detect 

human body movement in a protected area. It supplements a double-zone 
PIR sensor HX-40RAM produced by Optex with a Jablotron transmitter
JA-150TX-V4 enabling the detector to be used within the JABLOTRON 100 
system. The optical part of the detector has 2 PIR sensors with non-
overlapping 94 zone detection, a high immunity to false alarms and 
the detection of small animals. The detector includes an Antimasking 
function – protection against covering the view and it also has two tampers 
(front and back) built-in. They immediately report opening the detector 
or attempting tampering. The detector does a self-test periodically and sends
its status to the control panel. The detector should be installed by a trained 
technician with a valid certificate issued by an authorised distributor.

Installation

Choose a proper place for detector installation according to the following:

The detector must be installed in a position where its bottom surface 
is parallel to the watched zone (either directly on the wall, or possibly, 
if a change of direction is required, the supplied joint can be used). 
This condition is essential for good immunity to false alarms. 
For more information see Figure 1.

The detector should be installed 2.5 – 3 m above the ground.

No other moving objects (bushes, trees, high grass, etc.) should be 
situated in the detection area of the detector. These objects can be 
masked out using the supplied foils. Avoid direct action by strong 
sources of light (sun reflections). You can use the supplied viewing 
hood for this purpose.

When selecting the right place to install your detector, keep in mind that 
the best movement detection is provided when the detection zones 
intersect Figure 2.

Procedure:

1. Unfasten the securing screw on the bottom side of the upper cover and 

remove it.

2. Pull the plastic tab under the lower PIR sensor slightly to remove the 

optical part. 

Warning: Do not touch the detector sensing face 

during handling.

3. Use a screwdriver to punch a hole on the right of the bottom detector 

cover in order to pull the rear TAMPER cable through (supplied 
in the package). 

When installed without the joint holder:

Use the

Base Mounting Template

from the box lid.

Pull the rear TAMPER cable through the punched hole in the bottom 
detector cover and fix a magnetic contact to the place according 
to the template (Base side).

Mark a place on the wall where you want to install the detector 
– i.e. holes for the screws and the magnet (Wall side), and fix 
the magnet to the wall.

Fix the rear cover on the wall while checking the position of the magnet 
and the reed contact (they should be as close as possible).

When installed with the joint holder:

Use the Bracket Base Mounting Template from the box lid.

Press the plastic tab to remove the screw cover (secured with 
a plastic cord against falling during work). 

Unscrew the securing screw (inside under the cover) to loosen the joint 
and swivel it to one side to gain access to the installation holes.

Pull the rear TAMPER cable through the cavity in the joint and fix 
the magnetic contact in the given place (between plastic lugs).

Mark a place on the wall where you want to install the detector 
– i.e. holes for the screws and the magnet (Wall side), and fix 
the magnet to the wall.

Fix the joint holder to the wall while checking the position of the magnet 
and the reed contact (they must touch).

Now screw the bottom cover together with the joint holder. Remove 
the central screw which blocks vertical movement and screw it through 
a hole in the bottom cover.

Pull the rear TAMPER cable through the opening you have punched 
in the bottom detector cover and insert the rear TAMPER connector into 
the pins marked EXT.TMP (3) see Figure 4 (remove the jumper 
installed in production).

Enrolling the detector to the system

The signal transmitter for wireless communication is located underneath 

the optical part of the detector. The batteries are inserted into the battery 
holder of the OPTEX motion detector. 

Use two CR123A (3 V, 1500 mAh)

lithium batteries from the same manufacturer. If an increased lifetime 
is needed, you can also use a third battery.

The correct position 

of the batteries is indicated on the battery holder. Alternatively, LS(T) 14500 
(3.6V, AA) lithium batteries can be used. When inserting the batteries, it is 
necessary to remove the part of the holder held in place with a metal clip.

Enrollment procedure to the system: 

a. There must be a JA-11xR radio module installed in the control 

panel.

b. Go to the 

F-link

software, select required position in the 

Devices

window and launch the enrollment mode by clicking on the 

Enroll

option.

c. Insert the batteries (mind the correct polarity). When the first 

battery has been inserted into the battery holder an enrollment 
signal is transmitted to the control panel and the detector 
is enrolled to the selected position.
