Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting - Speedrite 6 J Unigizer Manual De Instrucciones

In electric animal fences intended for deterring birds from roosting on
buildings, no electric fence wire shall be connected to the energizer
earth electrode. A warning sign shall be fitted to every point where
persons may gain ready access to the conductors.
Where an electric animal fence crosses a public pathway, a non-
electrified gate shall be incorporated in the electric animal fence at that
point or a crossing by means of stiles shall be provided. At any such
crossing, the adjacent electrified wires shall carry warning signs.
Any part of an electric animal fence that is installed along a public road
or pathway shall be identified at frequent intervals by warning signs
securely fastened to the fence posts or firmly clamped to the fence
wires.
The size of the warning sign shall be at least 100x200 mm (4x8").
•
The background colour of both sides of the warning sign shall be
•
yellow. The inscription on the sign shall be black and shall be
either:
or the substance of "CAUTION: Electric fence".
The inscription shall be indelible, inscribed on both sides of the
•
warning sign and have a height of at least 25 mm (1").
Ensure that all mains-operated, ancillary equipment connected to the
electric animal fence circuit provides a degree of isolation between the
fence circuit and the supply mains equivalent to that provided by the
energizer.
Protection from the weather shall be provided for the ancillary
equipment unless this equipment is certified by the manufacturer as
being suitable for use outdoors, and is of a type with a minimum degree
of protection IPX4.
Important safety instructions for Class 2 power units
(USA/Canada only)
When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be
practiced including the following:
1 READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2 Read and follow all instructions that are on the product or
provided with the product.
3 Do not use an extension cord.
4 Reference the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, specifically
for the installation of wiring and clearances from power and
lighting conductors.
5 Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified
person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards,
including fire-rated construction.
6 Do not install or use within 3 m (10') of a pool.
7 Do not use in a bathroom.
8 WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. When used outdoors, install
only to a covered Class A GFCI protected receptacle that is
weatherproof with the power adaptor connected to the receptacle.
If one is not provided, contact a qualified electrician for proper
installation. Ensure that the power adaptor and cord do not
interfere with completely closing the receptacle cover.
9 WARNING: Risk of Fire. Installation involves special wiring
methods to run wiring through a building structure. Consult a
qualified electrician.
10 WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. Mount the unit at a height
greater than 30 cm (1') from the ground surface.

Frequently asked
questions/Troubleshooting
What voltage is required to control animals?
4 kV is widely accepted as an adequate voltage to control animals.
However, you also require a well constructed fence system to ensure
that animals cannot push through electrified wires.
The fence voltage is below 4 kV. How do I increase the voltage?
Check the energizer.
Ensure that the energizer is on and set to operate
at full power. Disconnect the fence wire from the energizer's fence
output terminal. Measure the voltage across the energizer terminals
using a Fault Finder, Digital Voltmeter or a remote control handset. If
the voltage is less than 6 kV, the energizer may require servicing.
Check the energizer earthing.

voltage is faults on the fence line.
If the fence, earth and energizer are in good condition and the voltage
is still below 4 kV, talk to your nearest reseller. Recent extensions to
your fence, a poor fence layout, or soil conditions may be causing
inadequate voltage.
How do I locate faults?
The recommended tool for locating faults is a Fault Finder or remote
control handset. These have a combined voltage and current meter
which allows you to rapidly locate sources of current leakage.
Alternatively, use a Digital Voltmeter. Use cut-out switches to turn off
the power to different sections of the farm. If the voltage on the fence
increases when a section of the farm is turned off, then investigate that
section for possible faults.
There are no lights flashing on the energizer
Ensure the power supply is on. Check the fence system for faults (see
above). Check the energizer (see above). If the energizer still does not
operate, it may require servicing.
The energizer does not respond to commands from the remote
control handset
See the Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting section in the
remote control handset's user manual.
I want to disable the energizer's remote control feature
If you have a remote control handset, see the remote control handset's
user manual for instructions. If not, take the energizer to an authorised
service centre to have the feature disabled.
