Delovanje

Once the energizer is properly installed and connected, it will begin operation automatically when the battery is inserted. There is no separate on/off switch.

  • Ograja Voltage Control LED: The energizer features an optical control LED for fence voltage. A flashing green LED indicates that the fence is operating correctly and producing sufficient voltage.
  • Baterija Voltage Control LED: A separate LED monitors the battery voltage. This LED will flash red when the battery capacity drops to approximately 40% remaining, indicating that the battery should be replaced soon.

Regularly check both LEDs to ensure continuous and effective operation of your electric fence.

Vzdrževanje

  • Zamenjava baterije: Ko je baterija voltage control LED flashes red, replace the 9V battery. Disconnect the energizer from the fence and ground, open the battery compartment, replace the old battery with a new 9V battery, ensuring correct polarity, and close the compartment. Reconnect the fence and ground cables.
  • Čiščenje: Periodically clean the energizer casing z oglasomamp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water. Ensure terminals are free of dirt and corrosion.
  • Preverjanje povezave: Regularly inspect all connections (fence, ground, battery) for corrosion, damage, or looseness. Ensure they are secure and making good contact.
  • Nadzor vegetacije: Keep vegetation clear from the fence line. Excessive vegetation can reduce fence voltage and drain the battery more quickly.
