Operating manual information
The operating manual has some important instructions on handling the energizer. All technical details in the manual
have been prepared and compiled with the greatest possible care. Even so, errors cannot be excluded. We wish to point
out that we cannot assume any guarantee, legal responsibility or any liability for consequences attributable to possible lack
of details. We would, at all times, welcome any notification of possible errors. Safe working depends on the indicated safety
and handling instructions being adhered to. Also to be adhered to are those local accident prevention provisions which are in
force where the energizer is used as well as the general safety requirements.
The operating manual is to be studied carefully before any work begins!
As an integral part of the overall product it is to be securely kept right next to the energizer and for ease of consultation by
the personnel.
Do hand over this manual should this product be sold or passed on to another party. For a better understanding of what is
involved, some of the diagrams in this manual may not be true-to-scale and may deviate slightly from the actual construction-
al design.
1. Description and Construction of the Product
The energizer transmits voltage pulses to a connected pasture fence.
Switching the energizer on and off (and changing between various operating
modes) is undertaken by a push switch.
Caution!
Only the optional additional parts prescribed by the manu-
facturer are to be used.
2. Installation
Installation:
The device is designed for an operation within a pigeon repellent system at
buildings.
It is suitable only for outside mounting and shall be aligned towards the
south.
The two wires of the pigeon repellent system (“fence system”) shall be con-
nected to the and marked terminals
The marked terminal MUST NOT be grounded.
Solar panel installation:
Align the device with the solar panel to face south. Operation with the solar
panel means you cannot operate it with a mains adapter. The device has an
incorporated solar charge regulator (when the device is switched on).
Installation with a 12V rechargeable battery:
Connect the 12V rechargeable battery (red + / black -), ensure clean pole
terminals and correct polarity. The device will not start if the polarity is re-
versed.
CAUTION!
Only use rechargeable 12 V batteries; only charge rechargeable
batteries with ventilation in well-ventilated rooms. Disconnect the
rechargeable battery from the energizer during the charging process.
The rechargeable battery should be recharged before and after every
use as well as during longer periods of storage (every 2 months) and
disconnected from the energizer.
The energizer has an AUTO-ON function which ensures that as soon
as power is connected the energizer starts to operate.
3. Commissioning
Switch on energizer with the push button. After 1 second, you will hear a
rhythmic even ticking of the pulses; the energizer is in operation.
The energizer transmits pulses to the fence and the LED display lights up.
The fact of the status LEDs not lighting up points to a defect in the power
supply.
Optimal Solar Alignment and Setting
The correct placement of the pigeon repellent devic and it´s solar panel is
crucial for the best possible operation of the energizer.
1. Position the device so that the panel points south.
This positioning enables the panel to absorb a maximum amount of sunlight
even during the few light winter days When placing the energizer, consider
the position of the sun throughout the day and avoid a location which could
cover the energizer with shade from trees. or other buildings.
