ABOUT THE FEEDER ACTIVATOR
The Feeder Activator allows a feeder motor to be remotely
activated from up to 300 feet away.
Transmitter Antenna
The Feeder Activator consists of a Receiver that mounts in
your wildlife feeder and a Handheld Transmitter.
Activation
Button
When the button is pressed on the Transmitter, a signal is
sent to the Receiver which activates the Feeder motor for a
period of five seconds.
Handheld
Transmitter
Status Light
The Transmitter is powered from a 12 volt Remote Control
Battery (Radio Shack #23-154) and the Receiver is powered
from your 6 volt Feeder Battery.
The Feeder Activator works with most 6 volt wildlife
feeders that meet the following requirements:
Receiver
Mounts
Inside
Feeder
Antenna Wire
a) When the battery is installed in the feeder, the positive
and negative contacts are exposed and accessible - enabling
the connection of the Feeder Activator power wires (with
alligator clips).
Battery
contacts
must be
accessible
b) The two wires that run between the feeder circuit board
and the motor are accessible - enabling the connection of
the Feeder Activator motor wires.
The Feeder Activator may be used in a metal Feeder
enclosure if the Antenna Wire can be routed outside the
box.
WIRING THE RECEIVER
Disconnect the battery from the Feeder. Holding one of
the provided Connectors in the orientation shown, push
the Receiver’s Red Motor Wire into the rear hole until it
reaches the internal stop.
Receiver’s Motor Wire
Connector
Slide the positive wire that runs between the Feeder’s
circuit board and the motor into the side of the
Connector as shown. The positive wire may be red in
color, marked “positive”, or not identified. If it is not
identified, select either wire.
With pliers, squeeze the metal contact tab down
until it is even with the surface of the plastic. Close
the Plastic Cover until it snaps into place.
Plastic Cover
Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the
Black Negative Wire.
Motor Wire from Feeder Circuit
Board to Motor
Metal Contact Tab
CHECKING CONNECTIONS
The Receiver is equipped with an internal diagnostic
function that checks the wiring to the motor and
provides feedback via a red Status Light.
Connect the battery to the Feeder and then to the
Receiver. Connect the Red Wires to the positive
terminal (+) and the Black Wires to the negative (-)
terminal.
Motor
If Status Light is blinking,
these two wires need to be
swapped at the Connectors
Immediately following connection of the battery,
the red Status Light on the Receiver will be on
solid or blinking:
STATUS LIGHT ON SOLID
To test the Feeder Activator, stand back from
the feeder and press the button on the
Transmitter. Feeder motor will run for a period
of five seconds. If motor does not run, check
connections to Battery and to motor as shown.
STATUS LIGHT BLINKING
Open the Plastic Cover on the Connectors and
carefully pry open with a screwdriver. Pull-up
on metal clip with pliers to release the wires.
Swap the motor wires as shown. Refer back to
Section II for details on connection.

MOUNTING RECEIVER
Remove the protective cover from the double sided tape on the back of the Receiver. Position the
Receiver on a clean and dry location inside the Feeder.
Route the white Antenna Wire inside the plastic Feeder enclosure. The Antenna Wire should not
be folded or in contact with the motor. If using the Feeder Activator in a metal Feeder enclosure,
the Antenna Wire must be routed outside the box in an area that is not accessible by varmints.
OPERATING UNIT
To activate the Feeder motor for a period of five seconds, fully extend the Transmitter Antenna and
hold the Activation Button until the Feeder runs.
1: (Q) What should I do if the Feeder Activator isn't working?
(A) Check the connections on the feeder battery to make sure
alligator clips have not come loose. Then check the feeder battery
by changing to a known good battery. Lastly, check the battery in
the Transmitter by changing it to a known good battery.
2: (Q) Will the Feeder Activator decrease the battery life in my
feeder?
(A) The Feeder Activator has been optimized to use minimal power;
however, it will have a slight impact on the overall life of your
feeder’s battery.
