Operation - patura P700 Mode D'emploi

Operation

• Keep this manual in a handy location.
• Carefully read all the safety considerations starting on page 44.
• Carefully check your installation to ensure that it complies with all local safety regulations.
1. Ensure the selector switch is set to off. The power light is illuminated when the energiser is
receiving power from the battery.
2. Select the output setting using the selector switch (see selector switch below). The LED dis­
play indicates the output voltage of the energiser. See LED display on page 35.
Selector switch
The energiser operates according to the position of the selector switch.
The selector switch controls the power output and pulse speed settings of the PATURA energiser.
Setting Description
Off The energiser is off and is not operating. Keep the energiser off
while setting up your fence line to avoid accidental shock.
Auto The energiser automatically adjusts the power output as the fence
load increases or decreases.
Half Keeps the energiser in reduced­power mode permanently.
Full Keeps the energiser in full­power mode permanently.
LED display
You can use the LED display to read voltage at the output terminals of the energiser.
Reading voltage
When the energiser pulses, each of the first nine segments on the LED display represents an
increment of approximately 1 kV (1000 V) of output voltage. For example, if the first four seg­
ments are illuminated at each pulse, the output voltage is approximately 4 kV (4000 V).
If you see only red lights at each pulse and no green lights, this means that your fence line is
very heavily loaded, and you need to look for faults on the fence line.
The 10th segment of the LED display illuminates when the energiser is delivering full power.
Battery test
The PATURA energisers P700 and P800 offer a control option for monitoring the battery volt­
age. After connecting the battery or after disconnecting the energiser the actual battery voltage
is displayed on the LED display with 10 segments.
