What the Energizer lights indicate
FENCE INDICATOR LIGHTS
The M113S energizer monitors the fence with every pulse. A finite amount of energy is used
to excite the fence. Depending on the current magnitude of a fence pulse a second pulse may
be used to excite the fence and effectively double the output energy. The occurrence of the
second pulse is indicated by the illuminating of the HIGH POWER indicator.
Under normal fence operating conditions the GOOD indicator should flash once a second. As
the fence becomes loaded due to excessive vegetation or moisture the Check indicator may
start flashing. If the loading becomes severe, the HIGH POWER indicator will also start
flashing and possibly the ALARM indicator as well. When this occurs the voltage on the fence
may change considerably because the available output energy has doubled. The fence
indicator lights may cycle between ALARM / CHECK and GOOD as the effectiveness of the
fence is maintained. Should the fence loading be such that the fence voltage is insufficient to
be a deterrent then the ALARM indicator will remain lit or have a fast flash and the alarm
outputs, if enabled, will activate.
FENCE1
Fence voltage acceptable
Fence voltage questionable. Inspect fence and do
maintenance.
If lit permanently the fence dropped below acceptable
voltage levels. Flashing intermittently in conjunction with the
HIGH POWER indicator indicates severe loading on the
fence.
HIGH POWER
An indication that the output energy of the energizer is being
doubled due to fence loading
.
Continuous operation of the HIGH POWER indicator is to be avoided. Either there is excessive
vegetation or fault on the fence. The HIGH POWER indicator will only flash briefly if a short is
presented to the energizer. The energizer would detect this as a potential head/body shock
that can be lethal and reduce, or if installer configured stop, any further energy from exciting
the fence.
