Using a remote control
handset
12000i, X12i, 412i, 6000i, 6000i-EU, X6i, X6i-EU, 406i, and
406i-EU energizers will accept commands from a Datamars
remote control handset. No configuration is required. The
energizer and remote control are pre-programmed to
communicate.
Note:
6000, 6000-EU, X6, X6-EU, 406 and 406-EU energizers
cannot be used with a remote control handset.
Activating the energizer for use
with a remote control handset
During the first 10 minutes of operation, the energizer's remote
control feature can be activated. During this period, the large
12
arrow on the LCD display flashes to indicate this. The energizer
will otherwise operate normally.
To activate the remote control feature, turn off the energizer
using a remote control handset (see the remote control
handset's user manual for details). The energizer will stop
pulsing, and the last green light will flash to indicate that the
energizer is in standby mode. The large arrow on the LCD
remains on to indicate that activation has been successful.
Once the energizer's remote control feature has been activated,
you will not need to perform the activation procedure again.
Note:
- If the energizer is not successfully activated within the first
10 minutes of operation, you will need to switch the
energizer off and on before you can try again.
- You can disable the remote control feature at any time. For
instructions, see the remote control handset's user manual.
If you do not have a remote control handset, take the
energizer to an authorised service centre to have the feature
disabled.
The remote control handset
The remote control handset is three tools in one. It acts as a:
Remote control – Switching the energizer on or off from
•
remote locations on the electric fence system.
Fault finder – Assisting in the location of faults anywhere
•
on the fence system.
Voltmeter/Ammeter – Providing instant feedback on fence
•
performance (voltage and current)
For detailed instructions on using the remote control handset,
refer to the user manual supplied with the handset.
WARNING!
The energizer will reactivate following a power
failure, even if it was switched off by a remote control
handset before the power failure. The fence should be
regarded as live at all times, regardless of the energizer
switch position or the remote control status. If you are
working on a section of fence, isolate the section with a cut-
out switch, or disconnect the energizer from its power
source.
