Fault
Solution
The
Pulse
indicator light is
flashing, but the
electric
shock
delivered by the
fence is weak.
Check that all connections in the fence and earth system are firm
and secure. If necessary, clean away any corrosion.
Check that the earth rod is pushed firmly into firm ground and is
not rusty.
Check for faults in the fence-line caused by trees or vegetation. If
necessary remove obstructions and mend the fence.
Check that the energizer is adequate for the length of the fence. If
necessary reduce the length of the fence or reduce the number of
fence wires. Alternatively, divide the fence-line into smaller zones
with each zone powered by a separate energizer.
The
Pulse
indicator light is
not flashing.
Check that the energizer is switched on.
If there has been insufficient sunlight to charge the battery the
energizer may be in Battery protection mode. Charge the battery
by placing the energizer in full sunlight with the solar panel facing
true north in the southern hemisphere and true south in the
northern hemisphere .
Try charging the battery manually using a suitable battery
charger. Replace the battery with a new battery. Before installing
a new battery charge it fully using a suitable battery charger or
leave in sun for 3 days with energizer turned off.
If the pulse indicator light is still not flashing, return the energizer
to the MGG for service
The battery needs
frequent
replacement.
Check that the solar panel is clean and is not damaged. Make
sure the energizer is positioned to receive maximum sunlight. If
necessary, remove any objects or vegetation that might be
casting a shadow on the energizer.
