Introduction

The JMB Series is the most powerful and feature rich electric fence energizer JVA has made to date. This continues JVA’s push for technical superiority in the area of Monitored Electric Fencing and IP Energizers(R). While the JMB was specifically designed for Game Parks and Exclusion Fencing, they are also well suited to any large permanent electric fence. The highest powered JMB produces a stunning 46J of stored energy. At this time the JMB series consists of 6 models:
JMB32-ZM1
JMB32-ZM2
JMB32-ZM50
JMB25-ZM1
JMB25-ZM2
JMB25-ZM50

Installation

Please read the entire manual before proceeding.
Design and build the fence. (Beyond the scope of this manual.) Ask your distributor for help if required.
Decide where the JMB is to be mounted. If on an external wall it should be housed within an equipment box and not in direct sunlight.
Mount the housing by using screws through the mounting holes in the corners of the box.
If you are using a 12V battery, connect the battery leads to the PCB terminals. Do not connect to the battery yet.
If you are using AC power, connect the power pack 24V to the PCB terminals. Do not turn AC on yet.
Wire the Fence and Earth cables to the fence terminals.
Put short pieces of wire into any unused cable glands to seal them.
While the Energizer is designed not to start when first powered up, make sure it is not going to hurt you if it does start up!
Connect the battery leads to the battery (if used).
Turn AC power to the 24Vdc power pack on (if used).
Power LED's will light up and the Wi-Fi LED will start blinking code 1 (1 flash each second).
Replace the front cover (lid).
Connect to the energizer using the virtual keypad (in the next section).
Arm (turn on) the JMB. The virtual keypad will now be able to show the fence voltage(s) and current(s).
Find and remove any faults on the fence.
Consult the main users manual for more information

Virtual Keypad Setup

The JMB Wi-Fi module can be used to configure and control the JMB. The Wi-Fi module defaults to Access Point (AP) Web server mode.
Before you start make sure the Wi-Fi status LED is blinking code 1.
Open the Wi-Fi settings on your phone and connect to the JMB's Wi-Fi.
The Name of the Wi-Fi (SSID) from your Energizer is JVA_Jumbo_xxxxxx where xxxxxx is the Serial Number of the unit. Select this SSID to connect to it.

The connection is password protected.
The default password is: jvasecure
Enter the password and press CONNECT

NOTE: Because this interface does not have an Internet connection, some phones will ask you if you want to remain connected. Click the tap for options if asked.

To ensure you can access the Web Interface, you need to answer YES to the “Stay connected?” questions. Tick the box “Don’t ask again” if you will be connecting to this device more than once.
