Introduction & disclaimer INTRODUCTION The DRUID LCD is a battery (12V 7AH nominal) operated energizer suitable for connection to mains (AC 100V-240V, 50-60Hz). The batteries to be used are rechargeable lead-acid batteries. Non-rechargeable batteries must not be used. The lead-acid batteries require venting and it is imperative that the energizer be situated in a well-ventilated area.
NEMTEK does not guarantee that the operation of the product will be uninterrupted and totally error free. Faulty units must be returned to one of the NEMTEK Group outlets. The buyer shall pay all shipping and other charges for the return of the product to NEMTEK or NEMTEK Security Warehouse.
Foreword The DRUID LCD 2x energizer should ideally be operated by means of a remote keypad to obtain access to the many energizer features and receive the greatest protection. It can however be operated by means of a Nemtek tab or external switch.
Mounting & battery replacement STEP 1: Disconnect mains. Open the lid after removing the two cap screws. Unplug the battery terminals if connected. STEP 2: Remove screws and battery bracket STEP 3: Remove battery *Dispose of old battery according to legal requirements.
PC Board replacement STEP 1: Disconnect mains power and the battery terminals if connected. STEP 2: Remove all five connectors, C1 – C5. STEP 3: Remove the five screws, S1 – S5. STEP 4: To remove the PC Board, gently pull the PC Board away from the mounting plate, unplugging it from the connectors beneath it.
Panic Switch (Normally closed) High/Low voltage switch for Zone 1 High/Low voltage switch for Zone 2 A maximum of two Nemtek Druid 4-Zone keypads, two expansion cards and 100m of comms cable can be connected. A total of two energizers can be linked together.

For example, the front, back, left or right side of the property can each be a unique zone. To create a four zone system, two DRUID LCD 2x energizers need to be linked via the keypad bus. Three wires in total need to be wired correctly between the two energizers.
Network cards and Nemtek Connect The Druid LCD 2x energiser has a data port to which communications cards such as a network card or a Nemtek Connect card can be connected. These cards enable networking or remote access and control of the energiser.
Large network Up to 32 Druid LCD 2x energisers (64 Zones) can be networked together. Each of the energisers will need to have a unique address in the range 1-32. The energiser’s large network address is set using installer code 51??*# detailed on page 27 of this manual.
Detailed service indicators & fuses When the energizer front cover is opened while displaying a service condition (spanner symbol), if the service condition is still present, further information will be displayed indicating the cause of the service condition as listed below. A = Aux fuse blown I = Fence interference detected S = High voltage boost circuit failure, SCR failure or rapid triggering...
Installation notes • Keep the wires to the fence separate from the keypad, gate, siren, strobe and mains wiring. • Do not try and modify the energizer. Any unauthorized modifications will null and void the warranty and possibly render the unit illegal. •...

Programmable options FENCE STATE AT POWER ON 2 0 2 _ * # Sets the operating state that the fence is returned to after a complete power failure has ended. ? = 0 (off), 1 (on) or 2 (fence returns to on/off state at power loss) Factory default value is 2022*# (fence returns to on/off state at power loss) A complete power failure occurs when the energizer shuts down due to the internal battery running flat during a prolonged mains power failure.

Nemtek GPS module. The GPS module extracts absolute time from the network of satellites making up the global position system (GPS). The advantage of using a Nemtek GPS sync module is that any number of D24 energizers can be synchronized over vast distances without any physical network connections between the energizers.

Programmable options LARGE NETWORK ADDRESS 5 1 _ _ * # Sets the address of an energizer connected in a large network. Programmable range is 5101*# (Address 1) to 5132*# (Address 32) Factory default value is 5100*# (No address) A maximum of 32 energizers can be networked together using network cards. The factory default address of 0 is a broadcast address which allows an energizer to be found on a new network, but for the network to operate correctly the energizer must finally be assigned an address in the range of 1 to 32.
