Hot Shot Systems Inc. will no longer sell or warranty its products for the use in controlling or monitoring pollut-
ants. However, the use of these controllers in non pollutant applications such as water tanks, water pumps, pivots,
irrigation systems and any other monitoring or control applications that do not involve pollutants are suitable for
these products.

ATTENTION: Depending upon the style of system that your are going to control with the Hot Shot Wire-
less Controller you may need to supply additional parts. Such as relays, step-down transformers, Murphy
switches etc. These items are suggested in the wiring guides that follow in this manual.
BATTERY BACKUP
During a power outage, a gel cell rechargeable battery supplies power to a Hot Shot for approximately 24 hours.
This allows a Hot Shot transmitter to send a shutdown signal to the pump when the transmitter has lost line
power. The Hot Shot comes with a battery save feature that will turn off the Hot Shot if the voltage drops from
12vdc to 10vdc. This function will add years of life to the gel cell battery.
Important... When the battery has discharged, it will take approximately 2 to 3 hours for the battery to
charge enough to operate the Hot Shot in case of another power failure. The battery should be replaced
every year for the best reliability during power outages.
ATTENTION: All Hot Shot units have a designated GROUND Terminal. Hot Shot units must have the
ground terminal connected to a proper ground or grounding system as per the NEC (National Electrical
Code) and or your local and state electrical code guidelines.
HOW IT WORKS
The TR-1000 is a TRANSCEIVER. Transceivers can transmit and receive communications. This allows a TR-
1000 to be installed at a pivot or at a pump. To simplify things in this manual we will call the TR-1000 that is in-
stalled at the tank the TRANSMITTER (a transmitter sends out commands. In this application it will send out
pump on and off commands) and the TR-1000 at the pump will be called a RECEIVER (receivers, receive com-
mands from the transmitter to activate or deactivate something. In this manual it will be used to turn on and off a
pump). The left side of the TR-1000’s circuit board is the transmitter and the right side is the receiver.
TRANSMITTER SIDE
RECEVIER SIDE
BASIC OPERATION
Think of a Hot Shot control system as a wireless switch. When the transmitter’s sensor is activated the relay out-
put on a receiver will be activated and turn on a device such as pump, motor or a light. When the sensor is deacti-
vated on the transmitter it will deactivate the relay on the receiver turning of the device it is connected to.
MOUNTING
Cabinets are a weatherproof UV protected NEMA 4X cabinet with mounting ears on top and bottom. The Hot
Shot control boxes can be mounted on the side of a control panel, pole or any other surface as long as the antenna
does not have metal running within 12” of the antenna whip. If longer range is needed, an external long range an-
tenna can be used. Do not mount the HOT SHOT to the well engine or cover because the strong vibrations can be
harmful to the unit.
If installing these on a Variable Frequency Drive do not mount the Hot Shot unit to the VFD because of the poten-
tially strong magnetic field interference that can be produced by these drives. The further away it is mounted the
better it is for the Hot Shot’s ability to transmit and receive.

“CODE SWITCH SETTINGS”
CODE SWITCH SETTINGS
Most Hot Shots are shipped from the factory with a preprogrammed 4 digit system code. This ensures that your
neighbor will not duplicate the same system code as your units. Your Hot Shot’s system codes should already
match, so you do not need to program any codes. If a new secure system code is needed for your installation
please call 785-623-1500 to be issued a secure system code for your area that the Hot Shots will be operating in.
If you ever need to replace a unit due to servicing, the field code can be programmed to match the existing or
new add on units. FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE BELOW…
EXAMPLE: CODE 6789
KEY
7
8 9 0
5 63 4
OFF ON
Use the # KEY to the left
to make each digit of the
code. It takes three of the
switches to make one num-
ber of the code.
Use switches 1,2,3 for the
first # in the code. Switches
4,5,6 for the second #.
Switches 7,8,9 for the third
#. Switches 10,11,12 for the
fourth #.
TR-1000 INDICATOR LIGHTS
POWER Signals that the Hot Shot has power and is ready to operate.
STROBE Used for troubleshooting, this LED flashes once for each of the four correct digits of the code received.
The LED will stay on steady for one second if an incorrect digit of the code is received. Example: If the
LED flashes two times and then goes on steady it is indicating that the third digit doesn’t match. If the LED
flashes one time and goes on steady it is indicating that the second digit doesn’t match. If the LED comes
on steady right away it is indicating that the first digit doesn’t match.
UNIT# STATUS When these LED’s are on it indicates that its corresponding transmitter has activated the relay and the
1 2 3 4 receiver is in Last Transmitter Standing Mode (Unit# switch and (Aux 7)) See description on pg 12.
SUPERVISION When this LED is flashing it indicates that it has not received its correct code from the transmitter in the
past 3hrs. Sliding function switch #8 to its OFF position will turn off this indicator light.
TRANSMIT Indicates when the Hot Shot is transmitting.
SENSOR When this LED is lit it indicates that the SENSOR IN terminal is being connected to the COM terminal.
AUX When this LED is lit it indicates that the AUX terminal is being connected to the COM terminal.
BUSY When this LED is lit it indicates that the Hot Shot is hearing other Hot Shots and will wait to transmit.

“OPERATING THE TEST BEACON”
OPERATING THE TEST BEACON
The Test Beacon function is turned on and off by using FUCNTION SWITCH
#8 (see above). This feature is used for testing and range finding purposes
only. To activate the Test Beacon first turn OFF the power to the Hot Shot.
Turn function switch #8 on and connect a small jumper wire from the SENSOR
IN terminal to the COM terminal and then turn the power back ON. See dia-
gram. When turned ON the Transmitting LED will blink and the code will be
transmitted every 10 seconds cycling a receiving Hot Shot’s relay. DO NOT
have the receiving Hot Shot wired up to the pump during this procedure because it will continually open the
relay for 10 seconds and then close the relay for 10 seconds causing damage to the pump.
Function switch #8 must be turned OFF, the jumper wire removed and then turn off the power of the Hot
Shot to take it out of Beacon Mode.

9ON ACTIVATES FAIL-SAFE MODE - SCENERIO 2 (See FAIL-SAFE OPERTAION below)
FAIL-SAFE OPERATION
This feature works with the Supervision feature as described above but lets us take safety a step further. Fail-Safe Operation
allows the Hot Shot to control it’s out put relay by activating or deactivating itself if any Hot Shot in the system is not working
properly.
SCENARIO 1
Turning on RX Function switch 7 will make the output relay energize if there is a system failure (closing N.O. to COM.).
SCENARIO 2
Turning on RX Function Switch 9 will make the output relay de-energize if there is a system failure (closing N.C. to COM.).
LOAD SHARING
Different delay times on the receivers can help with large electrical current pulls in the same field on start up.
OFF DELAY
Turning RX function switch 5 ON will put the receiver in OFF DELAY mode. This mode is most often used with a Roto-Phase
converter or generator. When the Hot Shot receives an off command the deactivation of the relay will be delayed by 50 seconds
allowing the Roto-Phase convertor or the generator the extra time needed to allow everything to shutdown.
SUPERVISION FEATURE
The Supervision Feature is a great way for checking at a glance the integrity of communications between Hot Shots. The super-
vision feature is designed to work with only one transmitter per system as the supervision feature’s timer can operate on multi-
ple receivers at the same time. When TX function 9 (Refresh) is turned on, it will send out a check-in signal (technically it’s a
command telling each receiver on the system to reset it’s supervision timer, i.e. system is working properly) every 45 minutes.
If the check-in signal is not heard by a Hot Shot before the internal supervision timer expires, due to transmit or receive issues,
the Hot Shot will then look at its RX function switches (7, 8 or 9) and take the selected course of supervision or fail-safe action.
See below.
To activate an RX function slide
the dipswitch to the ON side.
ENGINE STARTUP MODE
Turn RX function switch 6 ON and then turn on the power to the Hot Shot to enable the Engine Startup Mode. The Supervision
LED will light up and the relay will come on to bypass the Murphy switch and allow the engine to start and stay running until
the Hot Shot has received its relay ON command thus ending the bypass timer and taking control and turning off the Supervi-
sion LED. If the Hot Shot does not receive the relay ON command within 15 min the Hot Shot will kill the engine and you will
have to turn the Hot Shot off and then back on again to get it into Engine Startup Mode again.

12
RECEIVING INDICATOR LEDS
POWER Signals that the Receiver has power and is ready to receive.
STROBE Used for troubleshooting, this LED flashes once for each of the four correct digits of the code received.
The LED will stay on steady for one second if an incorrect digit of the code is received. Example: If the
LED flashes two times and then goes on steady it is indicating that the third digit doesn’t match. If the LED
flashes one time and goes on steady it is indicating that the second digit doesn’t match. If the LED comes
on steady right away it is indicating that the first digit doesn’t match.
STATUS When these LED’s are on it indicates that its corresponding transmitter has activated the relay and the
1 2 3 4 receiver is in Last Transmitter Standing Mode (Unit# switch and (Aux 7)) See description below.
SUPERVISION When this LED is flashing it indicates that it has not received its correct code from the transmitter in the
past 3hrs. Sliding function switch #8 to its OFF position will turn off this indicator light.
UNIT# SWITCHES(1,2,3,4,5,6,) AND (AUX #7)
When a Hot Shot (810-R or TR1000) is going to be used with A Hot Shot (810-T or TR1000) transmitter using
it’s #1,2,3,4,5 and 6 SENSOR control, the Hot Shot going to be controlled will need to be assigned to the sensor
on the transmitter that will control it. All Hot Shots come factory set in the default mode as a UNIT #1. Mean-
ing they are only controlled by a Hot Shot that is transmitting as a Unit #1. When using the SENSOR INPUT
#2 or higher on a transmitter you will need to use the UNIT# DIP SWITCHES located to the left of the 12-digit
RX CODE SWITCHES to program the Hot Shot so it can be controlled by it’s corresponding transmitter. You
can make it a #2 receiver (which is controlled by a #2 transmitter) by only turning on the #2 dipswitch. See pic-
ture. You can make it a #3 receiver (which is controlled by a #3 transmitter) by only turning on the #3 dip-
switch. This makes it capable for the tank to control and share multiple wells.
Multi Tank / Single Pump Operation (Unit# switches and (Aux 7))
This mode is used when 2 or more (up to 6) different tanks are sharing the same pump and the pump can stay run-
ning until all the tanks are done and have transmitted the relay OFF command. Each UNIT# STATUS LED on the
pumps’ Hot Shot will light up when its corresponding tank’s Hot Shot has sent the relay ON command. When a
tank’s Hot Shot sends its relay OFF command to the pump’s Hot Shot the corresponding UNIT# LED will turn off.
For the pump to include each tank in the control sequence the corresponding UNIT# switch on the pumps’ Hot
Shot must be turned on for each pivot that is controlling it.
NOTE - all tanks that transmitted in a relay ON command must transmit the relay OFF command or the pump will
NOT stop.

13
ELECTRIC PUMP WIRING / START-STOP OPERATION
To supply power to the Hot Shot mount a 480v-120v step-down transformer in the pump panel. A Hot Shot only
requires 1 watt of power to operate. Hot Shot Systems suggest using a minimum of a single phase 60 hertz
0.050kVA transformer. They are available for purchase through Hot Shot Systems, just request when ordering.
Mount a 3 terminal fuse block and a 120vac relay in the pump panel. Hot Shot Systems suggest using a 115V AC
coil relay. Wire two, 480v conductors through the first two fuses (2 amp each) to the primary side of the step-
down transformer. Wire the 120v X2 terminal of the step-down transformer through the remaining fuse (2 amp)
and then to terminal #1 (120vac hot input of the Hot Shot). Wire the 120v X1 terminal of the step-down trans-
former to the terminal #2 (120vac neutral input of the Hot Shot). Terminals may be different according to the
transformer installed. Add a jumper from terminal #1 of the Hot Shot to it’s COM terminal. Wire the NO ter-
minal on the Hot Shot to one side of the 120v relay’s coil. Connect the other side of the relay’s coil to the X1
terminal of the step-down transformer. Connect a wire from the ground terminal of the Hot Shot to a central
grounding system or an NEC approved ground rod.
CAUTION: Never switch any voltage greater than 120v with the Hot Shot’s internal relays.
This will ruin the relay and void all manufacturer warranties. Use an externally mounted 120v
coil relay to switch all voltages greater than 120v. See diagram below.
PUMP START: WHEN THE HOT SHOT AT THE TANK’S SENSOR IN TO COM IS CLOSED IT
SENDS OUT THE RELAY ON COMMAND TO THE HOT SHOT AT THE PUMP. WHEN A
RELAY ON COMMAND IS RECEIVED THE HOT SHOT WILL CLOSE ITS N.O. TO COM
CONTACTS AND LIGHT UP THE RELAY LED. THIS WILL ENERGIZE THE 120VAC
RELAY TO CLOSE THE 480V PUMP CONTACTOR STARTING THE PUMP.
PUMP STOP: WHEN THE HOT SHOT AT THE TANK’S SENSOR IN TO COM IS OPENED IT SENDS
OUT THE RELAY OFF COMMAND TO THE HOT SHOT AT THE PUMP. WHEN A RE-
LAY OFF COMMAND IS RECEIVED THE HOT SHOT WILL OPEN ITS N.O. TO COM
CONTACTS AND TURN OFF THE RELAY LED. THIS WILL DE-ENERGIZE THE
120VAC RELAY TO OPEN THE 480V PUMP CONTACTOR STOPING THE PUMP.
HOT SHOTS AT THE PUMP NEED TO BE TURNED ON BEFORE THE HOT SHOTS AT THE PIVOT
ARE TURNED ON. HOT SHOTS ONLY TRANSMITT FOR 1 MINUTE. IF THE HOT SHOT AT THE
PUMP IS TURNED ON AFTER THE ONE AT THE PIVOT IT WILL NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY
UNTIL THE HOT SHOT AT THE PIVOT IS SET TO TRANSMITT AGAIN.

CAUTION: Never switch any voltage greater than 120v with the Hot Shot’s internal relays.
This will ruin the relay and void all manufacturer warranties. Use an externally mounted 120v
coil relay to switch all voltages greater than 120v. See diagram below.
PUMP STOP: WHEN THE HOT SHOT AT THE PIVOT’S SENSOR INPUT TO SESNOR COM IS
CLOSED IT SENDS OUT THE RELAY ON COMMAND TO THE HOT SHOT AT THE
PUMP. WHEN A RELAY ON COMMAND IS RECEIVED THE HOT SHOT WILL CLOSE
ITS N.O. TO COM CONTACTS AND LIGHT UP THE RELAY LED. THIS WILL ENER-
GIZE THE 120VAC RELAY TO OPEN THE 480V PUMP CONTACTOR STOPING THE
PUMP.
PUMP RUN: TO START THE PUMP POWER CYCLE THE RECEIVER. THIS WILL DE-ENERGIZE
THE 120VAC RELAY TO CLOSE THE 480V PUMP CONTACTOR STARTING THE PUMP.
ATTENTION:
For this scenario to work properly the TX Function Switch 1 (NO Reset sent when sensor opens) on the transmitter at the
tank needs to be turned on.

15
ENGINE PUMP WIRING
HOT SHOTS AT THE PUMP NEED TO BE TURNED ON BEFORE THE HOT SHOTS AT THE
PIVOT. HOT SHOTS ONLY TRANSMITT FOR 1 MINUTE WHEN THE SENSOR IS ACTIVATED.
IF THE HOT SHOT AT THE PUMP IS TURNED ON AFTER THE PIVOT HOT SHOT IT WILL NOT
OPERATE CORRECTLY UNTIL THE PIVOT HOT SHOT IS SET TO TRANSMITT AGAIN.
DO NOT mount a HOT SHOT unit to an engine or engine cover because strong vibrations can be harmful
to the unit.
The diagrams below show how to control an engine driven well using a simple 117 or 518 Murphy kill switch.
Supply power to the Hot Shot by hooking up the 12v positive input to the 12v positive terminal on the battery.
Run a wire from the Negative input on the Hot Shot to the negative terminal on the battery or to a good ground
connection. Install a jumper wire connecting the Hot Shot’s negative terminal to the COM terminal. Connect a
wire from the N.C. terminal on the Hot Shot to the S or the SW1 terminal on the Murphy kill switch.
Using Engine Start Up Mode:
Turn on function switch 6 and turn on the power to the Hot Shot to enable the Engine Startup Mode (for details
see pg 3). When activated the Supervision and Relay LED will come on and the ground going to the Murphy
switch to allow the engine to start and stay running until the Hot Shot at the pivot has sent its relay ON command
to the Hot Shot at the pump taking control of it and turning off the Supervision LED. If the pivot Hot Shot has
not sent the relay ON command within 15 min of starting the Hot Shot at the pump, it will kill the engine and
you will have to turn it off and then back on again to get it into Engine Startup Mode again. If the pivot stops or
the safety is tripped it’s Hot Shot will be send an OFF command to the pump’s Hot Shot that will close it’s COM
to NC. This shorts the Sterminal to ground and kills the engine. Other variations and Murphy Kill switches may
work as well.
PUMP START:IF USING A START/RUN SWITCH FLIP IT TO START. POWER UP THE HOT SHOT AND
START THE ENGINE AT THE PUMP. AT THE TANK POWER UP THE HOT SHOT AND IF
IT’S SENSOR IN IS CONNECTED TO COM IT WILL TRANSMITT A RELAY ON COM-
MAND TO THE HOT SHOT AT THE PUMP. WHEN A RELAY ON COMMAND IS RE-
CEIVED, THE HOT SHOT WILL CLOSE ITS N.O. TO COM CONTACTS AND LIGHT UP
THE RELAY LED. THIS WILL REMOVE THE GROUND FROM THE MURPHY ALLOW-
ING THE ENGINE TO STAY RUNNING. IF USING A START/RUN SWITCH FLIP IT TO RUN.
PUMP STOP:WHEN THE HOT SHOT AT THE TANK’S SENSOR IN TO COM IS OPENED IT SENDS
OUT THE RELAY OFF COMMAND TO THE HOT SHOT AT THE PUMP. WHEN A RELAY
OFF COMMAND IS RECEIVED THE HOT SHOT WILL OPEN ITS N.O. TO COM CON-
TACTS AND TURN OFF THE RELAY LED. THIS WILL NOW SUPPLY A GORUND TO
THE MURHPY STOPING THE ENGINE.

HOT SHOT SOLAR RECEIVER RELAY INTERFACE
TO SHUTDOWN A SIMPLE HEAD GAS OR PROPANE
ENGINE DRIVEN PUMP
AT THE ENGINE
DO NOT mount the HOT SHOT unit to the well engine or engine cover because strong vibrations can be
harmful to the unit.
The diagrams below show a simple way to shutdown an engine using a solar receiver and an external 12v relay
to control the engines magneto.
ATTENTION: When stopping an engine run with a magneto DO NOT wire it straight to the receivers built-in
relay. Use the receivers built-in relay to control an isolated relay that can handle the extreme voltages.
The Momentary Function (function switch #1) needs to be turned on in the receiver for this style of opera-
tion. See pg 11. The external 12v relay will be powered by the hot shot receivers 12v terminals. Run a wire
from the 12v negative input on the receiver to the negative coil terminal on the 12v external relay. Install a
jumper wire connecting the 12v positive input on the receiver to the COM terminal on the receiver. Connect a
wire from the N.O. terminal on the receiver to the 12v positive coil terminal on the external 12v relay. Now use
one of the terminals on the external relay to connect to a good solid ground and connect the other terminal on the
external relay to the magneto on the engine. Now when the receiver is sent a shutdown signal, the receiver’s
relay will close COM to N.O. and activate the external 12v relays coil connecting the engines magneto to ground
and stopping the engine. Other variations and Kill switches may work as well.

HOT SHOT GROUNDING
FOR SAFETY AND PEAK PERFORMANCE
Hot Shot wireless systems are equipped with a GROUND terminal that
needs to be connected to an NEC approved ground rod. A Hot Shot has
various lightning and static protection devices incorporated on the cir-
cuit board that require proper grounding to operate. Any equipment or
device panels operating with or near the Hot Shot should also be con-
nected to the grounding system. A good ground will enhance the trans-
mit and receive range of the Hot Shot System.

APPENDIX
SUPERVISION FEATURE
The Supervision Feature is a great way for checking at a glance the integrity of communications between the trans-
mitter and receivers. The supervision feature is designed to work with only one transmitter per system as the su-
pervision feature’s timer can operate on multiple receivers at the same time. When function 9 (Refresh) is turned
on in the transmitter, it will send out a check-in signal (technically it’s a command telling each receiver on the
system to reset it’s supervision timer, i.e. system is working properly) every 45 minutes. If the check-in signal is
not heard by the receiver before the internal supervision timer expires, due to transmitter or receiver issues, the
receiver will then look at its function switches (7, 8 or 9) and take the selected course of supervision action. See
below.
Receiver’s Supervision/Fail Safe action:
If Function 8 is on in the receiver and the supervision timer does not get reset by the transmitter’s check-
in signal the supervision LED will begin to blink continuously. No action will be performed by the receivers re-
lay. The supervision LED will continue to blink until either the receiver receives the transmitter’s check-in signal
or the receiver is reset by pressing the reset button, if equipped, or by cycling the power to the receiver.
If Function 7 (Fail Safe Scenario 1) is on in the receiver and the supervision timer does not get reset by
the transmitter’s check-in signal the supervision LED will begin to blink continuously. This will also activate the
receivers relay which will close or open your contacts, (N.C. / N.O.) possibly triggering an alarm, call out system,
deactivate an external relays coil or trip a tattletale circuit to stop the device it is controlling. The supervision LED
will continue to blink and the receivers relay will stay activated until either the receiver receives the transmitter’s
check-in signal, a relay reset command from the transmitter or the receiver is reset by pressing the reset button, if
equipped, or by cycling power to the receiver.
Operational Note: When using Fail Safe Scenario 1, the receiver’s relay is energized and if power is lost
while the receiver is in Fail Safe operation, the receiver’s relay will de-energize. When power is restored, the re-
ceivers relay will not immediately go back into Fail Safe operation. The receivers relay will remain de-energized
and the device it is controlling may restart. The receiver will not go into Fail Safe operation again until it’s super-
vision timer has expired again. If this situation occurs, a tattletale device that does not recycle when the power
comes back on, should be installed to hold the circuit as needed for your situation.
If Function 9 (Fail Safe Scenario 2) is on in the receiver and the supervision timer does not get reset by
the transmitter’s check-in signal the supervision LED will begin to blink continuously. This will also deactivate
the receiver’s relay, if currently activated, which will close or open your contacts, (N.C. / N.O.) possibly trigger-
ing an alarm, call out system, deactivate any external relays coil or trip a tattletale circuit to stop the device it is
controlling. The supervision LED will continue to blink until either the receiver receives the transmitter’s check-
in signal or a relay ON or OFF command from the transmitter.
Transmitter Setting for Supervision/Fail Safe Operation at the Receiver:
Function 9 (Refresh - sends checking in signal every 45 min.)
This function must be turned on in the transmitter so the transmitter will send out the signal to make the receiver(s)
supervision timer reset. IF the transmitter does not have this function turned on the absence of the refresh/check in
signal will cause the reciver(s) to go into Supervision or a Fail Safe action.
Testing Supervision/Fail Safe Operation:
A good way to test the Supervision/ Fail Safe Operation is to turn off function switch 9 on the transmitter,
so it will no longer send the refresh/check-in signal. Once the receiver’s supervision timer has expired, (may take
up to 3 hrs depending on the version of software the receiver is operating) the Supervision LED will begin to blink
and depending upon the Fail Safe scenario you have chosen, the receivers relay will activate or de-active.
