4.13 Low Power Mode
Z114 energizers can be switched into Low Power Mode. Low Power Mode may be
used in situations where the fence is not required to be a deterrent but is still required
to actively detect intrusion. In Low Power Mode the fence live wires operate at a
keypad to set Low Voltage Mode.
4.14 Group Simultaneous Pulse Feature
In some installations it may be preferable to provide the ability to link multiple units
simultaneous high voltage output pulses and act as if they are one energizer with
multiple outputs. This is designed so that no possible combination of individual
outputs can be dangerous.
4.15 Remote Control Unit (Optional)
The Remote Control Unit provides the Z114 with the ability to arm or disarm the
energizer via a compact key chain fob remote control. If using the remote control the
siren can be used to acknowledge arming with 1 beep and disarm with 2 beeps. See
7.6.13.
The remote controls have a range of up to 100 metres.
4.16 Cabling
High Voltage Cabling (Fence Feed and Returns) should be run using suitably rated
cable. Double insulated electric fence “underground” cable is suitable. High Voltage
Cables must never be run within the same conduit as Low Voltage Cables. A minimum
distance of 30mm should be kept between High Voltage and Low Voltage Cables.
To maintain the IPx4 rating of the enclosure and to ensure moisture does not enter

The Z114 contains a microprocessor. Extreme electrical noise can upset micro-
processors. The most likely cause of such noise is the high voltage output from

2. Design and build the fence. (Beyond the scope of this manual.) Ask your
distributor for help if required.
3. Decide where the JVA Z114 is to be mounted. If on an external wall it should be
4. Remove the JVA Z114 PCB chassis from the housing by removing the 2 screws.
5. Mount the housing by using 4 screws through the rear of the box.
6. Replace the PCB chassis.
8. Wire the low voltage cables to the PCB terminals*. (See Section 5.2)
9. Wire the high voltage cable to the PCB terminals*. (See Section 5.2)
from Earth Out to Earth Return.
12. Fit the battery leads to the battery. The Status Light should blink twice repetitively
13. Mount the 230 – 16V transformer and connect the 16V side to the Z114 16V
input terminals. (AC is not polarity sensitive.) Do not connect a live or neutral to
the earth terminal.
14. Replace the front cover.
15. Turn AC power on.
Light should stop blinking.
17. Arm the unit.
18. Check to ensure that a short anywhere on the fence triggers the alarm.
19. Ensure that the user understands how to change the user code (PIN) and is in
possession of this Installer/User Manual and the installer’s contact details.
Keep high voltage and low voltage cables at least 30mm apart.
Do not run high and low voltage cables in the same conduit.
