Page 4: Introduction
INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your choice of a JVA Energizer. In choosing to purchase a JVA product you have opted for the highest quality in electric fencing. Please read this manual entirely before installing or operating your new energizer. All JVA products offer a three-year warranty against faulty components and workmanship but excludes environmental extremes (i.e. -
Page 5: Important Notes
IMPORTANT NOTES ELECTRIC FENCES 1. Electric fences are not toys; do not let children play with them. 2. Electric fences should only be installed with regard to the relevant standards and work place health and safety requirements. 3. Electric fences should be signed. Warning signs that comply to IEC stan- dards should be prominently displayed on electric fences at distances specified by the country in which they are installed. -
Page 6: Power Supply Options
POWER SUPPLY OPTIONS The JVA SV series of electric fence energizers are fully self contained solar powered energizers. Each energizer in the SV series comes with an internal battery, integrated battery charger, solar panel bracket and solar panel. IMPORTANT NOTES •... -
Page 7: Solar Panels
2. Solar panels need as much direct sunlight as possible, preferably full sun all day. Unlike small solar powered items such as calculators, all JVA solar-powered energizers need direct sunlight to generate enough electricity to charge the battery. 3. The solar panel also needs to be clean to operate properly. Clean off any dust or dirt using a damp cloth. -

The mains power pack MUST be kept indoors! Solar Power Source: Included, simply place into direct sunlight and mount off of the ground. 2. Turn the energizer ON by pushing the Power button once. Page 16 © JVA Technologies. www.jva-fence.com... -
Page 17: Operation
OPERATION ELECTRIC FENCES Electric fence energizers work by discharging a short, safe, high voltage pulse onto the fence wires. The animal will not be harmed by a pulse, but it will remember to avoid contact with the energised fence in future. The high voltage is discharged from the red positive fence terminal of the energizer and this is connected to the live wires, or fence tape, of the fence to make them “live”... -
Page 18: Benefits Of Electric Fences
The fence and the earth voltages can be measured using an electric fence digital voltmeter or digital electric fence directional fault finder (the JVA Electric Fence Fault Finder). BENEFITS OF ELECTRIC FENCES •... -
Page 19: Electric Fences
ELECTRIC FENCES The Earth Return (also called Ground Return) configuration is the most common method for electric fences, particularly smaller fence applica- tions like “strip grazing”, due to its lower cost and ease of setting up. The fence live wire(s) are electrified and rely on the dirt to complete the circuit back to the energizer Earth terminal when an animal touches the fence. -

Page 21: Earthing Your Energizer
EARTHING YOUR ENERGIZER The best way to earth your energizer is using a 1 meter galvanized earth stakes. If the earth stake is too rusty it may not work properly. The best place to locate the earth stake is somewhere close to where the fence starts and that is kept damp like a garden bed, a water course, or the overflow from a rain water tank. - Page 22 1. Check the fence voltage using an electric fence volt meter. The JVA fault finder will also detect faults and direct you towards them. 2. Keep vegetation away from the fence. If it touches the fence it will reduce its performance.

Page 23: Troubleshooting Energizer Problems
(See Errors and Error Codes) on the LED and LCD displays. MOISTURE AND ANTS Moisture and Ants should not be a significant problem for the JVA range of energizers as they come in a weatherproof case. Still, where possible, keep the energizer protected from the weather. -
Page 24: Battery Replacement
BATTERY REPLACEMENT The JVA SV series of energizers contain a sealed lead-acid (SLA) or LiFePo4 battery that is charged by the solar panel. If the unit indicates a depleted battery it will flash the red error LED twice. The unit should be turned off and placed in full sun for 2 to 3 days to allow the battery to fully charge. - Page 25 (see image below) 5. Remove the battery and replace it with an equivalent 12V SLA battery of the same dimensions (JVA COB004 or AUS. Jaycar SB2486). Remove J1 shunt Alternative battery LiFePO4 (JVA COB010 or AUS. Jaycar SB2210).

Page 26: Errors And Error Codes
ERRORS AND ERROR CODES The JVA energizer may stop and display error codes. The error codes are displayed in two places. The first of these is on the Status (red) LED, where it will flash rapidly a number of times. The number of these flashes cor- responds to the Error Code. - Page 27 Error Red LED LCD Display Meaning Code # Flashes “Er 08” Self-calibration failure - insuffi- cient output “Er 09” Self-calibration failure – insuffi- cient capacitor charge “Er 10” Capacitor failure, charged too quickly “Er 11” Calibration error, voltage reading too low for fence conditions “Er 21”...

Page 28: Common Fence Problems
Using an electric fence volt meter or a JVA Electric Fence Fault Finder (do not use a standard multi- meter) check what the voltage is at the earth terminal of the energizer. In general you should see a reading less than 300 volts (0.3kV). -
