Instructions for the Feeder Activator

THANK YOU for your purchase of the Feeder Activator. Please read this sheet before using the unit. 
If you should have any questions about this product or any other Moultrie product, please contact us  
using the information on the back of these instructions. Please register your Feeder Activator at  
www.moultriefeeders.com/warranty-form to activate your 1-year warranty.

 

The Feeder Activator allows a feeder motor to be remotely 

activated from up to 300 feet away.

 
The Feeder Activator consists of a Receiver that mounts in your 

wildlife feeder and a Handheld Transmitter.

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. 

The transmitter is powered from an onboard battery, and the 

Receiver is powered from your feeder battery.

The Feeder Activator works with most wildlife feeders that 

meet the following requirements:
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).

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. 
     

NOTE: On Moultrie feeder kits, there are two separate 

     

wires labeled “Feeder Activator Connection” that should 

     

be used for connection.

The Feeder Activator may be used in a metal Feeder enclosure 
if the Antenna Wire can be routed outside the box.

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. 

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.
