Indicator Light Description
Power/Standby Flashing green
Constant green
Constant yellow
Flashing red
Constant red
Fence Flashing green
Flashing red
Fault
Energizer doesn't operate
Electric fence voltage is
below 3000V or your stock
are escaping
Warning
Damage to the Remote Control can be caused if you:
a) use the Remote on a fence not powered by a SmartPower or Remote Capable Energizer or
b) reverse the connection by placing the earth stake on the live fence wire and the brass terminal on the earth.
8
Causes
Turbo mode
Energizer is operating at normal
power
Low power
Electrical interference preventing
Energizer receiving clear Remote
signal.
Remote has switched Energizer to
Standby mode.
Voltage is greater than 1.0kV
Voltage is less than 1.0kV. The
Energizer is reaching its limit for
effective animal control.
Pos si ble Cause(s)
Energizer Off
Break in supply circuit
Faulty Energizer
Inadequate earthing
Short on the fence line
Faulty Energizer
Solution
None

None
Self corrects when interfeence
reduces. Reduce sensitivity via
switches (see illustration with
"Remote Control electrical
interference" section).
Use Remote to switch Energizer ON
again or reset the power supply.
None
Fence maintenance is urgently
required.
So lu tion
Switch ON
Test power point
Have Energizer repaired
Improve the earth system by adding more galvanised
earth stakes to the earth system until the earth
voltage is 200V or below.
Check the electrical con nec tions are secure, eg. from
the fence to the red terminal, from the earth system
to the green terminal, at gates etc.
Check the voltage on the fence every 33m (100ft)
using the Digital Volt Meter (G5030). Note if the
voltage is dropping. The closer to a fault, the lower
the voltage reading will be. Become aware of things
that cause faults and always be on the lookout for:
stray pieces of wire on the fence, heavy vegetation
growth, cracked or broken in su la tors, broken wires.
Unplug the Energizer from the power supply and
remove the fence wire from the Red terminal. Plug
Energizer in again. Using a Digital Volt Meter (G5030)
check the voltage across the ter mi nals. If the voltage
is less than 5000V, have Energizer repaired.
