Using a remote control
handset
The energizer will accept commands from a Datamars remote
control handset. No configuration is required. The energizer
and remote control are pre-programmed to communicate.
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 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 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
