  7. Tamper button.
  8. Connector for an external LED indicator.
  9. Power button.
  10. Holding screw to secure the siren to SmartBracket.

Compatible hubs and range extenders

The device requires an Ajax hub running OS Malevich 2.35 or later.

Operating principle

The device is equipped with a loud buzzer, which allows the siren sound to be heard from a distance. If the siren is installed correctly, it will be difficult for an intruder to dismantle and deactivate the triggered siren. Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller has an autonomous power supply and a robust enclosure with a holding screw used for securing the device. The power button is blocked when the system is armed.

The siren performs four tasks:

  1. Informing about an alarm. The siren responds to tamper and system alarms. It is loud enough to scare away intruders and attract the neighbors’ attention.
  2. Indicating the security state. The siren uses LED indication to show that the facility is armed and an audible signal to inform about entry/exit delays. These features can be helpful if you control the system via key fobs or keypads: the siren reminds you to disarm the system when you enter the facility.
  3. Chime. Sirens inform you with a special sound that opening detectors are triggered and the DoorBell button is pressed when the system is disarmed. The feature is used, for example, in stores to notify employees that customers have entered.
  4. Notifying about triggering until the system is disarmed. The siren’s built-in LED and an external LED (if connected) flash after the audible signal is emitted. Thanks to this feature, users and passing security patrols can see that the siren was activated.

Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller is a next-generation siren that uses an advanced alarm propagation algorithm. This algorithm allows adding any number of such sirens to the system. The only limitation is the total number of devices that a specific hub supports. The limitation “it is possible to add up to 10 sirens to one hub” does not apply to the next-generation sirens.

Superior Jeweller data transfer protocol

Superior Jeweller is an upgraded radio protocol for Superior devices that ensures compliance with EN 50131 (Grade 3). It features advanced encryption and frequency hopping. Full frequency hopping is available only when all devices in the system use Superior Jeweller. If at least one device operates via the regular Jeweller protocol, the system will be limited to Grade 2: encryption remains, but frequency hopping is disabled. Superior devices can also operate via the regular Jeweller protocol, depending on the hub.

Advanced encrypted communication

The communication between Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller and the hub is protected by an advanced encryption scheme that ensures data confidentiality and integrity. This means that all sensitive data in the message is encrypted, and each message includes a unique authentication tag allowing the system to check that the data has not been modified during transmission. The system can reliably detect tampering and reject forged or altered messages, providing robust protection against both passive and active attacks. This ensures secure communication between the device and the hub, as well as reliable system and data protection.

Jamming detection

Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller features a radio interference detection algorithm. When there is a potential jamming attempt, the algorithm detects a sudden increase or decrease in the noise level. It takes into account not only the amplitude of the noise but also its duration. This helps to distinguish between short, temporary disruptions caused by environmental conditions and sustained interference resulting from intentional jamming.

When Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller detects a potential jamming signal, it initiates signal analysis to confirm jamming. If jamming is confirmed, the siren activates an alarm.

When the Radio interference detection feature is enabled, the monitoring company and users will receive a notification of a sabotage attempt, and the siren sound will scare away intruders.

Frequency hopping

To comply with the Grade 3 requirements, Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller uses frequency hopping for radio communication with the hub (or the radio signal range extender). With this method, the hub and devices added to it change their operating frequency according to a defined pattern. The hopping sequence covers a defined set of channels within the operating bands, and devices switch frequencies synchronously with the hub. Even if some channels are affected by jamming, messages can be transmitted successfully via other channels. Frequency hopping improves the system’s reliability and performance and ensures its resistance to intentional interference and jamming attempts.

Frequency hopping does not cause delays or pauses during radio communication and does not reduce the data transfer speed. If range extenders are added to the system, the frequency hopping is used for all radio communications: “device ↔ range extender” and “range extender ↔ hub”.

The system uses frequency hopping for radio communication only if all wireless devices support this method.

If at least one device added to the system does not support frequency hopping, the hub and all devices switch to the operating frequencies of that device and do not use frequency hopping for radio communication.

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.

Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller can transmit the following events:

  1. Tamper alarm / tamper button recovery.
  2. Loss and restoration of connection with the hub (or the radio signal range extender).
  3. Permanent siren deactivation/activation.
  4. One-time siren deactivation/activation.
  5. Turning the siren off/on.

When an alarm is received, the monitoring station operator knows what has happened and where to dispatch a rapid response unit. Ajax device addressability allows the system to send events to Ajax PRO Desktop and the monitoring station with the specified device type, name, security group, and virtual room. The list of transmitted parameters may vary depending on the monitoring software 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 where to place Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller, consider the parameters that affect its operation:

  • Jeweller signal strength.
  • Obstacles that may interfere with radio signal and sound transmission, such as walls, interfloor ceilings, and large objects on the premises.

Consider the recommendations for placement when developing a project for the security system of the facility. Only a specialist can design and install the system. A list of recommended partners is available here.

Recommended installation height is 8.2 ft or more. This will make it more difficult for intruders to access the device.

Signal strength

The Jeweller signal strength is determined by the number of undelivered or corrupted data packets over a certain period of time. 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.

Check the Jeweller signal strength before final installation. With a signal strength of one or zero bars, we do not guarantee the device’s stable operation. Consider relocating the device, as repositioning even by 8 inches can significantly improve the signal strength. If the signal is still poor or unstable after relocation, use a radio signal range extender.

Refer to the Functionality testing section to learn how to run the Jeweller signal strength test.

Where not to install the device

  1. Outdoors. This may cause the siren to malfunction.
  2. In places with temperature and humidity beyond the permissible limits. This may damage the device.
  3. In places where an audible signal may be attenuated, such as inside furniture, behind thick curtains, etc.
  4. Near metal objects and mirrors. They may shield and attenuate the radio signal.
  5. Near glass break detectors. The siren sound may trigger an alarm.
  6. Closer than 3 ft to the hub (or the radio signal range extender).
  7. In places with low or unstable Jeweller signal strength.

Installation

Before installing Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller, ensure that you have chosen the optimal location that complies with the manual requirements.

To install the device:

  1. Unscrew the holding screw at the bottom of the siren. Then, remove the SmartBracket mounting panel from the device.

    If you are going to connect an external LED, refer to the Connecting an external LED section for more information.

  2. Add the device to the system.
  3. Temporarily secure the SmartBracket panel using double-sided adhesive tape or other temporary fasteners.

    Double-sided adhesive tape should only be used for temporary installation. The device attached with the tape may come unstuck at any time. As long as the device is secured with the double-sided adhesive tape, the tamper button will not be triggered when the device is detached from the surface.

  4. Place the siren on the SmartBracket mounting panel. The device LED indicator will start flashing, indicating that the device enclosure is closed.
  5. Perform functionality testing.
  6. If the tests are successful, remove the siren from SmartBracket.
  7. Secure the SmartBracket panel to the surface with bundled screws. Use all fixing points.

    If you use other fasteners, ensure they do not damage or deform the panel.

  8. Place the siren on SmartBracket.
  9. Tighten the holding screw on the bottom of the siren enclosure. The screw is needed for more reliable fastening and to protect the siren from quick dismantling.

Connecting an external LED

You can connect an external LED to Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller. This indicator works in parallel with the device’s built-in LED and fully replicates its signals.

To connect, use the connector on the rear side of the siren enclosure. Observe the polarity when connecting: the black terminal wire is the “+” contact.

The output power supply is 3 V⎓, 10 mA.

To connect an external LED:

  1. Remove the siren from the mounting panel if it has already been installed.
  2. Route the external LED cable into the Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller enclosure.
  3. Connect the external LED to Superior HomeSiren G3 Jeweller using the provided connector.

Malfunctions

When the device detects a malfunction (for example, there is no connection via the Jeweller protocol), a malfunction counter is displayed in the upper left corner of the device icon in an Ajax app.

All malfunctions can be viewed in the device states. Fields with malfunctions are highlighted in red.

A malfunction is displayed in the following cases:

  • The device temperature is outside acceptable limits.
  • The device lid is open (the tamper button has been triggered).
  • There is no connection to the hub or radio signal range extender via Jeweller.
  • The device battery is low.

Maintenance

Check the device regularly to ensure it is operating properly. The optimal frequency of checks is once every three months. Clean the device enclosure of dust, cobwebs, and other contaminants as they appear. Use a soft, dry wipe suitable for equipment maintenance.

Do not use substances containing alcohol, acetone, gasoline, or other active solvents to clean the siren.

The batteries installed in the siren ensure up to 2.5 years of autonomous operation with a polling interval of 1 minute or at least 6 hours of buzzer sound.

If the battery is low, the system will send an early notification that the battery needs to be replaced. When armed mode is activated, the LED will slowly light up green and go out.
