Understanding Your Remote Capable Energizer

A
How to Use Your Remote Control
Your Remote Control switches the Energizer ON or OFF from anywhere the fence is powered.
1. For an All Live Wire system: push the earth stake into the ground (for an Earth Wire Return system: place the
earth stake on the earth wire). For reliable performance it is IMPORTANT to achieve a good earth.
2. Place the brass terminal on the live fence wire.
3. The Remote will indicate Energizer pulses by regular, short fl ashes of the LED.
4. Push the button to switch the Energizer ON (Normal Operation) or OFF (Standby).
Your Remote LED gives a long fl ash (0.8 of a second) to indicate the signal has been transmitted.
Energizer Standby Mode
The Energizer indicates that it is in Standby mode by displaying a solid red light on the Power/Standby indicator.
WARNING! When in Standby, mains power is still supplied to Energizer, but the fence is not live.
Remote Control Low Battery
A fl at battery is indicated by the LED giving 5 quick fl ashes, either when the button is being pushed or the Remote
receives a fence pulse.
Remote Control Electrical Interference
The Energizer has four sensitivity settings at which the Energizer will detect the Remote Control signal. The more
sensitive the setting is, the greater the operating range of Remote Control. However, at the high sensitivity levels,
the Energizer will be more sensitive to detecting unwanted electrical signals (interference) from nearby electrical
equipment such as overhead power lines, military activity, radio frequencies, water pumps, etc. When the Energizer
detects electrical interference the Power/Standby light fl ashes
red and the Energizer ignores the Remote Control signal. In this
event, reduce the sensitivity via the switches on the back of the
Energizer until the light stops fl ashing.
IMPORTANT!
Remote Control Codes
The Energizer and Remote Control have four different identity settings. In the event that your neighbour has a
Remote Control (as a result your neighbour can unintentionally
switch your Energizer in or out of Standby) you can change the
code to another setting via the switches on the back of the
Energizer and inside the Remote Control. Note: the Remote
Control code and Energizer code must match in order for the
Remote Control to work.
Remote Control Disable
The Remote Control Disable option sets the Energizer to ignore all Remote Control signals and will prevent the
Energizer from switching into Standby. This feature can be used when it is
important that the fence must not be accidentally switched into Standby.
The Remote Control Disable option is set via switch 4 on the back of the
Energizer.
Full Power/Low Power
The Energizer has full power and low power options. Full power (the default
setting) is for general use. Low power is an option for very short fences or to
reduce fire risk in dry conditions.

Important!
Turn Energizer off before changing
switch settings. After changing
switch settings, it is recommended
that the switch cover is replaced (to
prevent insects entering).
