POWER LED is OFF:
The Energiser has entered a low power Stand-by Mode to avoid the battery becoming fully
depleted. This condition might happen if you forgot to switch the Energiser OFF when
putting it into storage. To rectify this, switch the Energiser OFF for at least 24-hours. Then
place the Energiser in FULL sun and switch ON. As it commences charging, the POWER LED
should flash briefly every few second. If it doesn't, switch OFF for another 24-hours then try
charging again. If the battery still does not come good, replace it. IMPORTANT: Once
charging begins, do not switch the Energiser OFF. After a few hours (or the next day if it is
cloudy) you should see the Power LED go GREEN and the fence commence working.
Rectifying Fence Faults
FENCE LED Continuously RED:
The Energiser is functional, but the output voltage is medium to low. Possible reasons:
1. The total length of Live wire is more than 5km.
2. Excessive foliage touching the Live wire is draining power from the fence.
3. Insulators are faulty due to dust, dirt, lichen, etc. causing electrical leakage,
particularly during wet conditions.
4. The Live wire is short-circuiting to ground, perhaps through a metal post or adjacent
earth wire. Look for the cause.
5. Insulating materials are experiencing electrical breakdown due to age or damage.
6. Replace any insulators not purposely designed for high voltage use.
FENCE LED Flashing RED:
Perform the following self-test of the Energiser:
1. Switch OFF the Energiser.
2. Disconnect both wires from the terminals.
3. Switch ON the Energiser. If the Energiser now displays a GREEN FENCE LED, your
Energiser is good. You have excessive power loss somewhere on the fence Live wires.
If the Energiser doesn't pass this self-test, then call Sureguard for advice.
FENCE LED is OFF:
The Energiser has entered a low power Stand-by Mode. Read above "POWER LED is OFF".
