Take the Perimeter Switch and squeeze the tabs on both sides of the Perimeter Switch as shown in
figure 1.30, and remove the back cover from the Perimeter Switch.
Insert the 3 C-cell batteries in the battery holder as shown in Figure 1.31 and reassemble the Perimeter
Switch.
1.18 Test the Perimeter Switch
Plug the perimeter wire connector into the Perimeter Switch (see figure 1.32) and press the ON button.
A small flashing green light next to the
‘ON’
button indicates the system is on and functioning correctly.
The Perimeter Switch also has an indicator for low batteries and for a disconnected/broken perimeter
wire. Figure 1.33.
The Perimeter Switch has an automatic shutoff feature, eliminating the need for you to turn it off after
each use. It will shut itself off after 5 continuous hours of operation. You can expect a good set of
alkaline batteries in the Perimeter Switch to last most, if not all, of a normal cutting season. You may
manually turn the perimeter switch off by pressing the ‘
ON
’ button continuously for 3 seconds. A beep
will be heard after the three seconds, indicating you may release the button and the switch is off.
