teaching.
WARNING
Employ standard blasting system safety standards when using this
equipment with explosives.
CAUTION
All units must be thoroughly tested and the batteries fully charged prior to
operational use.
5.1.
READY THE SYSTEM AT SITE.
5.1.1.
Remote Units. Select the number of Remote Units required for the operation.
Remove the dust cover from the antenna / battery charger connector. Install the
Antenna Assembly on to the antenna / battery charger connector. This will turn on the
Remote Unit. The yellow ON/LOW BATT light and green SAFE light will be turned on.
The green SAFE light will be on whenever the Remote Unit is turned on and it is
disarmed. In the disarmed state, the firing capacitor charge circuit is disabled, the
binding posts are electrically isolated from the firing capacitor, and the binding posts are
shunted to each other. If the yellow ON/LOW BATT light is flashing, the Remote Unit
battery is low and should be recharged before use.

WARNING
Do not connect a blasting cap to a Remote Unit unless the green SAFE
light is on, the red ARMED light is off, and the yellow ON/LOW BATT light is on steady.

isolated from the firing capacitor, the binding posts are shunted to each other, and the
battery is not low.

5.1.2.
Open and close the vent on each Remote Unit and the Controller Unit to
equalize the case pressure. Unscrew the vent, one revolution, to open.
5.1.3.
Remove the dust cover from the antenna / battery charger connector of the
Controller Unit. Install the Antenna Assembly on to the antenna / battery charger
connector. This will enable the keypad on the Controller Unit.
connector. This will enable the keypad on the Controller Unit.
WARNING
Do not use the Controller Unit within 100 feet of explosives, blasting
caps, or wires leading to them. The controller signal is 5 watts, which can cause
detonation of caps if within 100'. The 5 watt controller complies with the Recommended
Table of Distances established by the Institute for the Makers of Explosives (IME) when
placed beyond 100 feet of explosives.
