Trouble Shooting
Failure
Cause
Remedy
The ZON MARK 5, fully connected, fails to operate at all. The valve of the gas tank is not open. Open the valve.
The battery cable has not been connected. Ensure the battery terminals are connected properly. The black terminal is negative (–) and the red terminal is positive (+).
Low battery. Recharge or connect a new battery.
The gas tank is empty or has too little pressure. Connect a new gas tank.
The gas valve will not operate. Check the connection points. If properly connected, call the dealer for repair.
The control unit is not turned on. Turn on switch on control box.
The ZON MARK 5 leaks. The coupling nut gas regulator is not tight enough. Tighten coupling nut.
The hose from the regulator-unit to the ZON MARK 5 has been damaged. Replace the hose.
A fast method to trace a leak in the gas regulator is to check it with a leakage spray.
The ZON MARK 5 operates, but there is no explosion or sound. The hose fracture protector button (red) has not been pushed. Push the red button on the hose fracture protector one or more times.
Ignition gives a weak spark or no spark at all. Check the electrode (no. 91536) It is possible that the porcelain or the mass point is broken, if so replace.
Distance mass point on electrode is not correct. This must be 2.5 – 3.0 mm. If not, adjust with pair of pliers.
Electrode (no. 91536) is wet. Dry it well.
Poor gas mixture. Replace gas tank.
Gas valve is blocked or partially blocked. Open up blockage using thin wire of approximately 0.6 mm diameter (wire from a steel brush).
The ZON MARK 5 works, but gives dull explosions. Wind is too strong – gas/air mixture is disturbed. Place the ZON MARK 5 downwind or, if possible, place it out of the wind, or behind a screen.
Telescopic megaphone is not pulled out or is only partially pulled out. Pull out to full extension.
For receiver units:
Transmission range reduced.		 Weak batteries in transmitter. Replace batteries.

Online Support - Zon Mark 5 Heat Sensor

HEAT SENSOR INSTALLATION

The heat sensor is mounted inside the barrel hidden behind the iris cover to provide protection in case of malfunction to the control unit of the cannon. It is connected on the positive lead to the control unit and will cut all power to the cannon if the heat of the sensor exceeds a critical temperature for approximately 5 seconds. The following is a guideline to replacing the sensor.

1. Disconnect the battery clips and the regulator from the propane bottle.
2. Cut the red and green wires of the sensor, leaving enough wire outside of the control box to connect the new sensor wires to. You may be able to pull some excess red and green wires out of the control box.
3. Remove the old sensor. Make note of the position of the sensor before removing it. The sensor should be in front of the iris cover (inside the barrel) above the lip of the cover (Figure 1).
4. Install new sensor. Put entire sensor into barrel (Figure 2) and bring wires up through the holes in the barrel, making sure red and green wires are on the proper sides. Ensure sensor is up above the lip of the iris cover to offer protection from the explosion.
5. Connect the red and green wires by soldering and covering with provided heat shrink or by using the provided marrettes.
6. Check positioning of the sensor and use cable ties on the wires to ensure the sensor does not move back down in front of the iris cover opening.

ZON MARK VI INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
1. After the removal of the packing material, mount the device on the frame by means of the enclosed butterfly nuts and bolts (see diagram). Left and right base frames are identified on the center of the frame.

2. Loosen the clamping bolt (item #91116) on the outer megaphone (#91106) to free the inner megaphone (#91156). Pull the inner megaphone outwards to adjust the sound level (fully extended increases sound level). Ensure the clamping bolt is correctly secured into one of the 5 holes in the inner megaphone.

3. WARNING: With a functioning device: Wear ear protection while operating the scare cannon or if you are within a radius of 5 meters from the device (sound pressure level is approximately 120 dB(A) FAST).

  • Never place it in a closed area.
  • Never look into the megaphone.
  • Never place objects in the megaphone.
  • Keep the gas cylinder away from sources of heat. Do not smoke.
  • The gas cylinder should be placed upright.
  • Never place the gas cylinder in a pit.
  • If there is a fire close the valve of the gas cylinder, extinguish fire with dry chemical extinguisher.
  • Only propane gas should be used.
  • This device has certain components that can only be repaired or set by a recognized dealer.

4. This device runs on propane gas and uses a 12 Volt DC source (car/motorcycle/snowmobile battery).

5. Connect the gas regulator (#9023-33), equipped with a hose fracture protector (red button, #9024), to the gas cylinder. Make sure that the gas regulator and gas cylinder connections are clean. The hose fracture protector ensures that the gas cylinder will cease to emit gas if the hose would be detached for any reason or begins to leak.

6. Tighten the coupling nut on the gas cylinder (to the left) using a suitable wrench. Never use excessive force when assembling the device.

7. Ensure that the power switch on the top of the control module (under the yellow lid of the cannon) is in the OFF position before connecting or disconnecting the battery cable.

8. Connect the battery cable to the 12 Volt DC source (battery). Make sure that the DC source is protected against moisture (rain). Important: first connect the red battery terminal to the positive pole and then the black battery terminal to the negative pole!

9. Open the valve on the gas cylinder completely by turning it counter clockwise and push the red button on the hose fracture protector. The hose fracture protector button must be depressed after the valve on the propane tank opened, even if the regulator has not been disconnected from the tank. Turn the power button on, indicated by a flashing red light (LED) when on.

10. To turn off, open lid and turn the power switch off and turn the gas off.

ZON MARK V RECOMMENDATIONS
Read the following information carefully. In it you will find important instructions concerning the safety and maintenance of the device. Always keep these instructions with the device.

1. Place the cannon on a stable and horizontal surface.

2. Observe the local requirements and rules that may apply to noise and the production of sound in the vicinity of a residential area or otherwise.

3. Do not place any heavy objects on the scare cannon and do not block the air circulation.

4. It is important to the move the device regularly in order to increase the effectiveness.

5. If the device functions inadequately, consult the failure table or your local dealer.

ZON MARK V ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
- When not in use, store in a dry place.
- Check the following at least once per year;
1. Check the gas hose for defects. If defects are found (porous/cracks), replace it with a new one. When in doubt, use a new hose.

2. Check the gas regulator, fitted with a hose fracture protector, for damage or leaking. If any problems are detected, repair or replace immediately.

3. If there are any defects in the battery cable, repair or replace it.

4. Check the electrode (No. 91536) for damage. If any defects are detected replace with new electrode.

5. Check electrode and ground wire on back of barrel for corrosion or residue build-up. Remove and clean with emery cloth. Spray a protective coating over ground wire and back of electrode to prevent corrosion. See appendix A for description.

6. Use a suitable multi-meter to check whether the DC source (battery) has enough power (minimum 10 v). If the battery requires charging, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully.

7. If other defects are detected consult your local dealer.
