Fence voltage indicator
The 6 LEDs (LED4 - LED9) indicate the fence output voltage in 1000V steps. The indicator builds up from the left.
For herding security purposes at least 3 LEDs (3000V) should light up otherwise the voltage is too low.
Possible causes:
●With fence: Marked growth at fence, poor insulators, short-circuit at metal posts, or fence too long
●Without fence: Device is defective, see Service
Power economiser:
A fitted power economiser matches power consumption to the state of the fence. This means less current con-
sumption with well insulated fences and a greater current consumption with poorly insulated fences (leakages
due to plant growth, etc.).
Argutector display:
The 6 LEDs (LEDs 4 to 9) indicate fence insulation by way of the Argutector display in 6 steps. The display
builds up from the right. If all 6 LEDs light up, the fence insulation is good and little energy is required to main-
tain herding security. The fewer the number of lit up LEDs, the poorer the fence insulation is due to leakages
(plant growth, branches fallen onto the fence system, short-circuit, poor earthing). Increased energy is required
to keep the fence herding-secure.
Various modes can be set with press button
briefly. All modes can then be selected one by one with each additional button pressing. The mode selected
last remains set after exiting the menu. The energizer again shows the fence voltage and Argutector values
after 5 seconds.

* APN (Automatic Power Niveau): The output energy of the energizer is set initially, for instance, to 50% and
the actual fence voltage is measured continuously. If the output voltage is below 5,000 V or drops below this
value, the energizer gradually increases the output energy until the output voltage is above 5,000 V or the max-
imum energy of the energizer (100%) is reached. In order to ensure herding security with the lowest possible
energy requirement, the output power can also be turned down automatically when the fence voltage is above
the minimum herding voltage of 5,000 V.
This intelligent control ensures that the set voltage or minimum herding voltage at the energizer of 5,000V is
always maintained at the same time as the energizer's energy requirement is optimized.
