Power down the electric fence energizer
Disconnect both the mains and battery power from the electric fence energizer
before continuing.
Connect your Olarm PRO device to your electric fence energizer
Connect the 4-pin connector to the Universal port on the Olarm PRO. Cut the
5-pin plug off the cable and strip the wires so you can insert them. Wire the
Olarm PRO into the key bus according to the diagram below.
Note:
The Druid only supports two keypads & Olarm PRO counts as Keypad #2. You may
therefore need to forfeit a keypad if you already have two connected.

Mount the Olarm PRO
Mount your device using the screws and drill template provided. We suggest
mounting the Olarm PRO device on a wall as far from the Nemtek energizer as
convenient.
Note:
- Please do NOT mount the Olarm PRO near any other radio equipment. They may interfere with each other and result in your device not functioning correctly.
- The Olarm PRO device is not weather resistant, and you will need to install it in a suitable non-metal enclosure if outdoors.
Connect to WiFi
Please follow the in-app guide to connect your Olarm PRO to WiFi for enhanced
connectivity.
Note:
The Olarm PRO only supports 2.4GHz WiFi.
Note:
- Please note that the Olarm PRO acts as a keypad when installed on a Nemtek energizer and will automatically cycle through the zones to read each zone’s status on multi-zone energizers’. Any key press on the keypad will stop the zone cycling. The Olarm PRO will commence zone cycling after not detecting a key press for 30 seconds.
- Olarm PRO with batch number starting with 2022 onward are compatible.
