Check balance

Enter the balance check USSD code (provided by your operator) and tap Check balance.

Setting up keypad passwords for people who are not registered in the system.

Hub (2G) Jeweller does not support access codes.

With the OS Malevich 2.13.1 update, we have also added the ability to create a password for people who are not connected to the hub. This is convenient, for example, to provide a cleaning company with access to security management. Knowing the access code, you just need to enter it on the Ajax keypad to arm or disarm the system.

To set up an access code for an unregistered person in the system:

1. Press Add code.
2. Set up Username and Access Code.
3. Press Add.

If you want to set up a duress code, change an access code, settings for access to groups, Night mode, code ID, temporarily disable or delete this code, select it in the list, and make changes.

The created access codes are valid for all keypads connected to the hub. Hub (4G) Jeweller supports up to 50 access codes.

Settings for scheduled arming/disarming of the system.

Starts the detection zone test for connected detectors. This test determines whether the detectors operate correctly and defines the distance at which they detect alarms.

Configure the hub – detector ping interval. The settings determine how frequently the hub communicates with devices and how quickly the loss of connection is detected.

• Detector ping interval, sec — determines the frequency of connected devices polling by the hub. The shorter interval (in seconds) means faster delivery of the events between the hub and connected devices (36 seconds by default).
• Number of missed pings to determine connection failure — a counter of undelivered packets (8 packets by default).

The time before raising the alarm by the communication loss between hub and device is calculated with the following formula:

Detector ping interval × Number of missed pings to determine connection failure

It is important to keep in mind that the reduction in the polling interval reduces the bundled battery life.

Note that the ping interval reduces the maximum number of connected devices:

Irrespective of the settings, you can connect up to 10 sirens or keypads with a built-in buzzer and 1 range extender to the hub.

Group of hub service settings. These are divided into 2 groups: general settings and advanced settings.

General settings

LED brightness

Adjustment of the hub logo LED backlight brightness. Set in the range of 1 to 10. The default value is 10.

Firmware update

The menu contains the hub firmware update settings.

• Firmware auto-update configures automatic OS Malevich updates (enabled by default):
  • If enabled, the firmware is automatically updated when a new version is available. The system should be disarmed, and external power should be connected to the hub.
  • If disabled, the system does not update automatically. If a new firmware version is available, the app will offer to update the OS Malevich.
• Check for new version allows manually checking and installing firmware updates when available or assigned to the hub. This option is available only when the Firmware auto-update setting is enabled.

Hub system logging

Logs are files containing information about system operation. They can help sort out the problem in case of errors or failures.

The setting allows you to select the transmission channel for the hub logs or disable their recording:

• Ethernet
• Off

We do not recommend disabling logs, as this information may be helpful in the event of errors in the operation of the system.

Delaying notifications of external power loss

Hub (2G) Jeweller does not support this feature.

Settings for the delay time when sending an external power loss notification.

You can select a delay time from 1 minute to 1 hour with a selection interval of 1 minute.

Available for Hub (4G) Jeweller with OS Malevich 2.22 or later.

‘While hub offline’ events amount

Events during communication failure with the server are recorded in the hub buffer and will be delivered to Ajax apps after the connection is restored.

This setting allows you to choose the number of the last events, that hub will send to Ajax apps after returning online.

You can select between 100 (default value) and 1000 events with increment of 50 events.

Available for Hub (4G) Jeweller with OS Malevich 2.25 or later.

Advanced settings

The list of advanced hub settings depends on the type of application: standard or PRO.

Server connection

The menu contains settings for communication between the hub and Ajax Cloud:

• Delay of server connection failure alarm, sec. It is a delay to reduce the risk of a false alarm associated with the Ajax Cloud server connection loss. It is activated after 3 unsuccessful hub – server polls. The delay is set in the range of 30 to 600 s. The recommended default value is 300 s.
• Hub-server polling interval, sec. Frequency of sending pings from the hub to the Ajax Cloud server. It is set in the range of 10 to 300 s. The recommended default value is 60 s.

The time to generate a message regarding the loss of communication between the hub and the Ajax Cloud server is calculated using the following formula:

(Ping interval × 3) + Time filter.

With the default settings, Ajax Cloud reports the hub loss in 8 minutes:

(60 s × 3) + 300 s = 8 min.

• Get notified of server connection loss without alarm. Ajax apps can notify about the hub – server communication loss in two ways: with a standard push notification signal or with a siren sound (enabled by default). When the option is active, the notification comes with a standard push notification signal.
• Notify of connection loss over channels. A system can notify both the users and the security company about the loss of connection, even via one of the communication channels.

In this menu, you can choose the connection loss of which channels will be reported by the system, as well as the delay for sending such notifications:

• Ethernet
• Cellular
• Loss notification delay, min — time of the delay before sending the notification about loss of connection via one of the communication channels. Set in the range from 3 to 30 minutes.

The time of sending a notification about the loss of connection via one of the communication channels is calculated with the formula:

(Polling interval * 4) + Time filter + Loss notification delay

Sounds and alerts

The menu contains siren activation parameters.

Alert with a siren

• If lid of hub or any detector is open. If enabled, the hub activates connected sirens in case the lid of the hub, detector, or any other Ajax device is open.
• If in-app panic button is pressed. If enabled, the hub activates connected sirens if the panic button is pressed in the Ajax app.

Fire detectors settings

Menu of the Ajax fire detectors settings. Allows configuring Interconnected Fire Detectors Alarm.

The feature is recommended by European fire standards, which require a warning signal power of at least 85 dB at 3 meters from the sound source in the event of a fire. Such sound power wakes up even a soundly sleeping person during a fire. Using the Ajax app, Button, or KeyPad, you can quickly disable triggered fire detectors.

System integrity check

The System Integrity Check is a parameter responsible for checking the status of all security detectors and devices before arming. Checking is disabled by default.

Alarm confirmation

This setting is only available in Ajax PRO apps.

Alarm confirmation is a special event that the hub sends to the CMS and system users if several certain devices have triggered within a specified period of time. By responding to confirmed alarms only, the security and monitoring companies and the police reduce the number of visits to false alarms.

Restoration after alarm

This setting is only available in Ajax PRO apps.

The feature does not allow arming the system if an alarm has been registered previously. For arming, the system should be restored by an authorized user or a PRO user. The types of alarms that require system restoration are defined when configuring the function.

The function eliminates situations when the user arms the system with detectors that generate false alarms.

Arming/disarming process

This setting is only available in Ajax PRO apps.

The menu allows enabling arming in two stages, as well as setting Alarm Transmission Delay for the system disarming process.

Devices auto deactivation

This setting is only available in Ajax PRO apps.

The Ajax system can ignore alarms or other events of devices without removing them from the system. Under certain settings, notifications about specific device events will not be sent to the CMS and system users.

There are three types of Devices auto deactivation: by timer, by number of alarms, and by number of similar events.

It is also possible to manually disable a specific device. Learn more about deactivating devices manually here.

LED indication

This setting is only available in Ajax PRO apps.

In this menu, you can select the system states and events that the hub’s LED indicators will display. One of two functions can be chosen:

• Hub-Server Connection — hub’s LEDs display if a hub is connected to the power supply and the internet.
• British Disco — hub’s LEDs display information about system alerts and malfunctions, security mode changes, and delays when entering/leaving.

After-alarm indication

Select events that sirens or keypads with in-built LED will indicate with regular double flashing until the system is disarmed.

• Confirmed intrusion/hold-up alarm.
• Single intrusion/hold-up alarm.
• Lid opening.
