Operating principle
LockBridge (D) Jeweller is a wireless module used to integrate a Yale Doorman electronic code lock into an Ajax system. The module is installed inside the Yale Doorman smart lock.
With this module, the lock integrates directly with the hub and communicates via a secure radio channel. This ensures stable lock operation even if there is no internet connection at the site.
The lock can be locked or unlocked manually on site, remotely via the app, or automatically according to automation scenarios. The security mode of an Ajax system can also change depending on the lock state.
The Yale smart lock can be controlled in Ajax apps. The system sends notifications to users to inform them that the lock state has been changed. The notifications include:
- device name;
- virtual room;
- activation time;
- user who changed the smart lock state.
You can control the lock via the Devices 
and Control 
tabs.
Controlling the lock via Devices tab
To change the lock state, in an Ajax app:
- Select a space.
- Go to the Devices tab.
- Find the Yale smart lock in the device list.
- Slide
to unlock or 
to lock the device.
Controlling the lock via Control tab
To change the lock state, in an Ajax app:
- Select a space.
- Go to the Control tab.
- Swipe up to open the list of space automation devices.
- Tap the Yale smart lock tile to lock or unlock the device.
- Tap and hold for more than 0.5 seconds to open the control tab.
- To change the lock state, switch the toggle / .
All device events are recorded in the event feed in Ajax apps.
Jeweller and Wings data transfer protocols
Jeweller and Wings are wireless data transfer protocols that provide fast and reliable two-way communication between the hub and devices. The module uses Jeweller to transmit alarms and events and Wings to update the firmware.
Sending events to the monitoring station
An Ajax system can transmit alarms to the Ajax PRO Desktop monitoring app and the central monitoring station (CMS) in the formats of SurGard (Contact ID), SIA (DC-09), ADEMCO 685, and other protocols.
LockBridge (D) Jeweller can transmit the following events:
- Adding and deleting the device in the system.
- Low battery alarm/recovery.
- Loss and restoration of connection with the hub.
When an alarm is received, a CMS operator knows what happened and precisely where to dispatch a rapid response unit. The addressability of Ajax devices allows sending events to Ajax PRO Desktop or the CMS with the type of the device, its name, security group, and virtual room specified. The list of transmitted parameters may vary depending on the CMS type and the selected communication protocol.
You can find the device ID, loop (zone) number, and line number in the device states.
Selecting the installation site
When choosing a location for installing LockBridge (D) Jeweller, consider Jeweller and Wings signal strength that affect its operation.
You must consider the placement recommendations when designing the system for the facility. Only specialists can design and install an Ajax system. A list of recommended partners is available here.
Signal strength
The signal strength is determined by the number of undelivered or corrupted data packages over a certain period. The 
icon in the Devices tab in Ajax apps indicates the signal strength:
- three bars — excellent signal strength;
- two bars — good signal strength;
- one bar — low signal strength; stable operation is not guaranteed;
- crossed-out icon — no signal.
Run the Jeweller and Wings signal strength tests before final installation. The test checks the signal strength at the device’s maximum transmission power. If the test shows the signal strength of one or zero bars, we do not guarantee the device will operate stably. Consider relocating it, as adjusting its position even by 8 inches or rotating it relative to the hub can significantly improve the signal strength. If the signal remains poor or unstable after relocation, consider using a radio signal range extender.
Refer to the Functionality testing section to learn how to run Jeweller and Wings signal strength tests.
Where not to install the device
- Outdoors. This can lead to false alarms and device failure.
- In premises with temperature and humidity beyond the permissible limits. This can damage the device.
- In places with low or unstable Jeweller or Wings signal strength.
- Closer than 3 ft to the hub or radio signal range extender.
Installation
To install LockBridge (D) Jeweller in the Yale Doorman smart lock:
- Remove the Yale Doorman smart lock cover, following the instructions in the lock user manual.
- Remove the lock batteries before inserting the integration module.
- Install LockBridge (D) Jeweller in the corresponding place, following the instructions in the lock user manual.
- Install the lock batteries and replace the lock cover.
- Add LockBridge (D) Jeweller to the system.
- Run the functionality test. With a signal strength of one or zero bars, we do not guarantee the device will operate stably. If the signal is poor or unstable, consider using a radio signal range extender.
When using Yale Doorman L3/L3S, avoid rapid jerks or turning of the thumbturn. This may cause the lock to remain in the Closed state even after the door has been opened.
If this happens, close the door and perform one full lock/unlock cycle to update the lock state.
Adding to the system
Check the device compatibility before adding the device to the system.
Before adding a device
- Install an Ajax app.
- Log in to an account or create a new one.
- Select a space or create a new one.
- Add at least one virtual room.
- Add a compatible hub to the space. Ensure the hub is switched on and has internet access via Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and/or mobile network.
- Check the states in the Ajax app to ensure the space is disarmed and the hub is not starting an update.
Adding to the hub
- Open an Ajax app. Select a space to which you want to add the device.
- Go to the Devices tab and tap Add device.
- Scan a QR code or enter the device ID manually. The QR code with the device ID is placed on the device enclosure. Also, it is duplicated on the device packaging.
- Select the Yale smart lock you want to add to an Ajax system.
- Follow the instructions in the Ajax app.
- Assign a name to the device.
- Select a virtual room and a security group (if Group mode is enabled).
- Set an entry code and tap Add device.
If the connection fails, try again in 5 seconds. If the maximum number of devices has already been added to the hub, you will receive an error notification when you try to add more.
Once added to the hub, the device will appear in the list of hub devices in the Ajax app. The update frequency for device states in the list depends on the Jeweller or Jeweller/Fibra settings and is 36 seconds by default.
LockBridge (D) Jeweller works with only one hub. When paired with a new hub, it stops sending events to the old one. Adding the device to a new hub does not automatically remove it from the device list of the old hub. This must be done through the Ajax app.
Functionality testing
An Ajax system offers several types of tests to help select the correct installation place for the devices. For LockBridge (D) Jeweller, you can perform the following tests:
- Jeweller signal strength test — to determine the signal strength and stability between the hub (or the radio signal range extender) and the device via the wireless Jeweller data transfer protocol at the device installation site.
- Wings signal strength test — to determine the signal strength and stability between the hub (or the radio signal range extender) and the device via the wireless Wings data transfer protocol at the device installation site.
- Signal attenuation test — to decrease or increase the power of the radio transmitter; to check the stability of communication between the device and the hub, the changing environment at the site is simulated.

Malfunction
When the device detects a malfunction (for example, there is no connection via the Jeweller protocol), a malfunction counter is displayed in an Ajax app in the upper left corner of the device icon.
All malfunctions are displayed in the device states. Fields with malfunctions are highlighted in red.
Malfunction is displayed if:
- The device temperature is beyond the permissible limits.
- There is no connection with the hub or radio signal range extender via Jeweller.
- There is no connection with the hub or radio signal range extender via Wings.
- The battery is low.
- The incorrect code was entered three times. To restore operation, wait 5 minutes until the lock’s keypad automatically unlocks, or unlock the door via the Ajax app — this will reset the lockout and restore normal operation.
- The lock is substituted.
After Yale Doorman V2N is rebooted, it locks the door regardless of its previous state. If the door was open and unlocked before the reboot, the module reports the Door state as Opened and the Current lock state as Unlocked, but the lock is locked.
To restore synchronization, unlock the door using the thumbturn or by entering the code on the lock. In this case, no Unlocked alarm is generated, as the state remains unchanged in the app.
