WattsRadiant LoudMouth Monitor product WARNING
Read this Manual BEFORE using this equipment. Failure to read and follow all safety and use information can result in death, serious personal injury, property damage, or damage to the equipment. Keep this Manual for future reference.

PREPARATION

  1.  Open the battery compartment cover and connect the 9-volt battery included.
  2.  Replace the battery compartment cover and switch the unit “ON”.
  3. The alarm should sound and the red light should be lit when there are no connections to a mat or cable. If these things do not occur, inspect the battery connection or replace the battery.
  4. During normal use, the green light indicates that the LoudMouth is monitoring the mat or cable for damage. Should the green light go out, replace the battery before continuing work.

OPERATION

Make sure the mats and/or cables to be monitored are not connected to a power source. The LoudMouth is designed to monitor the mats or cables individually. However, by making a temporary “series” connection of multiple mats or cables, it can monitor up to three products at one time.

  1. FOR A SINGLE MAT OR CABLE: I nsert each lead wire from the mat or cable into the L1 and L2 terminals
    (no polarity) with the ground wire inserted into the G ter-minal. Tighten the terminal screws onto the wires.
    FOR UP TO THREE MATS OR CABLES: Connect one non-ground lead wire from one mat or cable into the L1 terminal. Connect one non-ground lead wire from a DIFFERENT mat or cable into the L2 terminal. Now connect the remaining lead wires so that the mats or cables are in “series” with one another. If this is not done properly, the LoudMouth may not correctly monitor the mats. Lastly, connect all ground wires from the mats or cables together to the G terminal using a jumper wire. See schematics on reverse side for proper connection to the LoudMouth.
