Frequently Asked Questions - CA-1802 Athos Jablotron

What is the power supply voltage for the CA-1802 Athos car alarm?

The alarm accepts 12/24V DC with a range of 8-32V. It automatically reads the supply voltage on first power-up.

Can I install the alarm myself?

No, the manual states that the car alarm should only be installed by a professional installer. It is designed for cars with a 12V or 24V negative ground system.

How do I enroll a new remote control (RC-8x)?

Disarm the alarm, turn ignition on, send SMS MASTER LEARN RC. The alarm beeps 3 times. Press both buttons on the RC for 3 seconds. A chirp confirms. Repeat for other remotes. Turn ignition off to exit.

What is the difference between RESET 1, RESET 2, and RESET 3?

RESET 1: alarm uses its own remote and controls central locking. RESET 2: alarm operated by original car remote. RESET 3: GSM pager mode for cars with existing alarm.

How can I arm or disarm the alarm via SMS?

Send SMS with the user code followed by ON or OFF. Example: USER ON arms, USER OFF disarms. Default user code is USER.

What is the default master code?

The factory default master code is MASTER. It can be changed using the MASTER MC xxxx SMS command.

How do I enroll wireless detectors?

Disarm, ignition on. For internal detectors: send MASTER LEARN INT. For external: MASTER LEARN EXT. Insert batteries in the detector to enroll. Enroll all detectors in the group sequentially.

Can I use a prepaid SIM card?

It is recommended not to use prepaid cards, but if necessary, you can enable the CREDIT instruction to monitor balance via SMS. The command is MASTER CREDIT with parameters.

What does the DINFO command do?

The MASTER DINFO command returns current settings, GSM signal quality, registration code for GSMLink, and other parameters. Example response: 'SN:123456, GSM:25'.

How do I reset the GSM module?

Use the command MASTER RESET GSM. This reconnects the module to the GSM network without affecting settings. Useful for GPRS activation or credit charging.

USER MANUAL CA-1802 Athos Jablotron

Installation manual: CA-1802 "Athos"

Before installation

This is the basic version of the installation manual and programming sequences. On the web site www.jablotronalarms.com in the download section you can find a extended version of this manual or you can find it included in the installation kit on CD / DVD. If you have no experience with CA-1802 installation, we recommend you to read the extended version of the manual to know all the parameters well.

The immobilizer relay contact of car alarm is connected only in disarmed mode and if the ignition is on. Do not block circuits that are under voltage while the ignition is off. It could cause a serious damage of the vehicle.

The car-alarm should only be installed by a professional installer. It is suitable for cars with a dashboard voltage supply of 12V or 24V with a

negative ground connection. During the first power-up, the value of supply voltage is read and the inputs are set to default settings. The alarm is designed to be installed inside the car.

For cars with a voltage supply of 24V, the following restrictions apply to car alarm installation:

1. It is not possible to connect a hands-free set of type HF-03.

2. When used for acoustic signalling, the SIR output is switched to the power supply voltage. Consequently, this output switches to 24V, so it is necessary to use a siren of type SA-606-24V instead of the SA-530 which is supplied in the standard package. In this case it is necessary to set the confirmation beeps to 100 ms.

Steps to enroll RC-8x controllers:

1. The car alarm should be disarmed, with the ignition on.
2. Send the SMS instruction MASTER LEARN RC
3. The car alarm beeps 3 times and an LED starts to flash.
4. The RC-8x controller is enrolled by pressing buttons and simultaneously for approx. 3 sec. A siren chirp confirms the enrollment. By enrolling the first remote control all other remote controls previously enrolled will be erased (so enroll all the controllers intended for use, one by one).
5. Exit enrollment by turning the ignition off. The alarm confirms the enrollment by sending an SMS message to authorized phones TEL1 to TEL4.

Steps to enroll detectors:

1. The car alarm should be disarmed, ignition on.
2. To enroll the internal detectors, send the SMS command MASTER LEARN INT (To enroll the external detectors, send the SMS command MASTER LEARN EXT)
3. The car alarm beeps 3 times and an LED starts to flash.
4. You can enroll a new detector to the system by inserting its batteries. If you enroll a first detector, you will erase all detectors from the associated groups (enroll all of them, which will be used in the group in sequence).
5. Exit enrollment by turning the ignition off. The alarm confirms enrollment by sending an SMS message to authorized phones TEL1 to TEL4.

Internet remote access

The web site www.GSMLink.cz enables car alarm remote control (to users) and setting (to installers).

To get internet access to an installed and powered car alarm you will first be asked to register your car alarm on the first page. You will find a unique registration code for your car alarm on the warranty card.

Additional features

1. Pre-paid SIM card balance

It is recommended not to use prepaid cards in the car alarm. If you have no other choice than prepaid cards, you can enable the CREDIT instruction by the following sequence:

MASTER CREDIT uuu..u xx yyy zz

where: uuu...u is the provider's code to obtain the balance

xx is the time period (in days) for regular checking

yyy is the threshold level below which the balance is reported to the user (TEL1)

zz is the position of the first digit of the balance in the reply SMS from the provider

• After this sequence has been sent once, the car alarm will check the balance automatically every xx days and if the balance is lower than yyy the user will be notified (TEL1)
• If the CREDIT instruction is enabled in the above way, the user can also obtain the current balance by the instruction CREDIT
• To disable the automatic balance checking set the time period "xx" to 00.

2. Reset GSM

If you need to disconnect and then reconnect the GSM module to the GSM network, then use the command "MASTER RESET GSM".

This does not affect any settings and is typically used for GPRS activation or charging up credit. This command always requires the Master code.

3. Service instruction

The DINFO instruction allows you to obtain current settings, information about the quality of the GSM signal, the registration code for GSMLink devices and some other parameters. This command always requires the Master code.

Example of instruction: MASTER DINFO
