  • Page 4: Introduction

    The ZM1 is designed to be coupled with any standard electric fence ener- gizer (see 2.1Limitations below) to power and monitor an electric fence. As it can control very large energizers it is anticipated that the ZM1 will find application on large fences for game reserves and border security. The ZM1 uses Patent, DFD™...

    1. While the Keypad is not essential for normal operation, it is always re- quired for programming options during installation. 2. Up to 3 Keypads may be used with a ZM1, each Keypad must have a unique ID setting. For more information on these options please see www.jva-fence.com.au...
  • Page 6: Features

    • Siren and strobe switched 12V DC outputs • 3 on-board relays with many programmable functions. LIMITATIONS • An energizer used with the ZM1 must comply with IEC60335.2.76 (or similar)safety standard. • The ZM1 supports conventional wiring only (not Bi-Polar), although 2 units could be used to monitor a Bi-Polar fence.
  • Page 7 • A ZM1 cannot be used in a group of Z-Series Energisers or ZM1s (Code Versions 1.00 - 1.58). Version 1.59 removed this limitation. JVA ZM1 Manual Page 7...
  • Page 8: Operation

    CONTROL INPUTS The ZM1 may have a single Key switch mounted on the right hand side of the cabinet which may be used to arm and disarm the security electric fence to which it is connected. This switch is useful for the simplest imple- mentations where no keypad or PC control program is used.

    The LCD display will change to display the Feed and Ground volt- ages. If there is a fence fault the ZM1 will go into alarm, the internal beeper will sound (if it has not been inhibited) and any siren and strobe connected to the ZM1 will be turned on.
