alarm condition will occur if the fence live wire is either cut or short circuited during 3 consecutive
pulses in the same zone.
The HV monitor system ensures stable zone information with no drift due to temperature or
corrosion.
Zone programming is very simple.
Fence Voltage can be switched to "Low Voltage" (800V) or "High Voltage"(8500V)
A warning will be given if the fence voltage drops below a level of 3000V due to a system fault.
All controls are located on the remote control unit. Communication between this unit and the
energiser is via a RS485 data link (4 core comms cable), via an RF link or via fibre optic cable.
Multiple Remote Control Units can be connected to one BS120 unit, in which case any control unit can
be programmed to be the "Master" control unit or a "Slave" control unit. 
