4. Energizer Operating Description
Solar operation:
The solar panel produces electricity as soon as it is exposed to usable sunlight. The pasture
fencer constantly requires electricity - by day as well as by night. The electricity generated in this
way by the panel is stored in a rechargeable 12V battery, which means the energizer can operate
without sunlight or can be supplied directly by a 9V battery. The solar panel may not always have
a suffi ciently large output to fully recharge a rechargeable battery – especially in dark, grey and
misty months (e.g. October to February).
For temperatures around 0 degrees centigrade or below, we recommend the use of a large 9 V
alkaline battery instead of a 12 V rechargeable battery.
The energizer is operated primarily from the solar panel. If the solar panel does not have suffi -
cient output, the energizer switches automatically to the connected 9 volt battery or to the 12 volt
rechargeable battery.
Rechargeable battery indicator:
The rechargeable battery indicator provides information about the rechargeable battery or battery
voltage. The solar display lights up constantly in green when the solar panel charging voltage is
greater than the voltage of the rechargeable battery/battery. Whilst the solar panel charges the
12V rechargeable battery, it does not charge the 9 volt battery.
Please check your battery regularly using the battery check indicator – especially in periods of
low sunlight - to avoid deep discharge of the battery. If necessary, charge the battery using the
enclosed mains adapter.
Attention: The energiser must be disconnected from the fence during the charging process!

The rechargeable battery must be recharged at the latest when discharged down to 20% (only 80%
charge capacity left) to prevent a fl at battery. The rechargeable battery indicator (LED) lights up:
Do note that temperature and measurement deviation may cause these fi gures to vary.
Caution!
When using a solar system
Only carry out a battery or rechargeable battery test at start of the day ( no solar power
supplied - cover panel )
