Electric Fence Energizer User Manual

Product Overview

The VOSS.farming Xtreme X200 is a professional-grade electric fence energizer designed for robust and reliable operation. With an impressive output voltage of 10,500 Volts and a powerful 20 Joule shock strength, it is suitable for a wide range of livestock, including Galloway cattle, poultry, deer, and horses. This device incorporates advanced technology for optimal fence control and energy efficiency.

Key features include:

  • Ultra Strong Performance: Delivers 10,500 Volts and 20 Joules, with double shock strength upon fence contact due to advanced technology.
  • Ideal Control: A clear display provides an overview of fence performance and aids in troubleshooting. BrightLight LEDs indicate current function.
  • Optimal Protection: SmartControl continuously monitors the fence for faults, indicated by a red light. Integrated deep discharge protection safeguards 12V batteries.
  • Practical Features: A second output with 50% power offers flexible connection options, allowing for a smaller secondary pasture or connection to the lowest wire to prevent vegetation interference.
  • Economical Operation: Maximized efficiency through high-quality components and microcontroller-controlled power-saving technology. An optional battery can bridge power outages and be recharged directly via the energizer.

Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of your electric fence system.

  1. Mounting the Energizer:

    Select a dry, sheltered location for mounting the Xtreme X200. Ensure it is protected from direct weather exposure. Use the provided mounting screws to securely attach the unit to a wall or sturdy post. The unit is designed for easy wall mounting.

  2. Grounding System:

    A robust grounding system is essential for optimal energizer performance. Install at least one galvanized ground rod (minimum 1 meter long) deep into moist soil, away from building foundations. For longer fences or dry conditions, additional ground rods may be necessary. Connect the black terminal of the energizer to the ground rod using a high-voltage insulated cable.

  3. Fence Connection:

    Connect the red terminal of the energizer to your electric fence line using a high-voltage insulated cable. Ensure all fence connections are secure and free from vegetation contact. The Xtreme X200 also features a yellow terminal for a second output with 50% power, useful for smaller fence sections or for connecting to the lowest wire to manage vegetation growth.

  4. Power Connection:

    Connect the energizer to a suitable 12V battery or a 230V mains power supply using the provided power adapter. The device is designed to be highly efficient and can also recharge an optional 12V battery directly.

  5. Warning Signs:

    Place appropriate warning signs at regular intervals along the electric fence, especially at access points, to alert people and animals to the presence of an electric fence.

Operating Instructions

Once installed, operating the Xtreme X200 is straightforward.

  1. Powering On:

    Press the power button located on the front of the unit to turn on the energizer. The display will illuminate, and the BrightLight LEDs will indicate the operational status.

  2. Monitoring Performance:

    The clear display provides real-time information on the fence's output voltage (kV) and pulse energy (Joule). The BrightLight LEDs offer a quick visual check of the energizer's function and fence condition. A green light typically indicates normal operation, while a red light signals a fault.

  3. SmartControl Fault Detection:

    The integrated SmartControl system continuously monitors the fence for issues such as shorts or breaks. If a fault is detected, the unit will indicate this with a red light, allowing for prompt identification and resolution of problems.

  4. Using the 50% Output:

    The yellow terminal provides a reduced power output (50% of full power). This can be used for a separate, smaller fence section or connected to the lowest fence wire to deter vegetation growth without over-energizing the entire fence.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Xtreme X200 energizer and electric fence system.

  • Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the energizer, cables, and fence lines for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
  • Cleanliness: Keep the energizer unit clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Vegetation Control: Regularly clear vegetation from around the fence line, especially from the lowest wire, to prevent power leakage and ensure maximum shock strength.
  • Grounding System Check: Periodically check the ground rod connections and ensure the soil around them remains moist for effective grounding.
  • Battery Maintenance (if applicable): If using a 12V battery, ensure it is properly charged and maintained according to the battery manufacturer's instructions. The Xtreme X200's deep discharge protection helps preserve battery life.

Troubleshooting

If your electric fence system is not performing as expected, refer to the following common issues and solutions:

Problem Possible Cause Solution
No shock or weak shock from fence. Poor grounding, fence shorting, energizer off, low battery, damaged cables. Check ground rod connection and moisture. Inspect fence for vegetation contact or breaks. Ensure energizer is powered on. Check battery charge. Inspect all cables for damage.
Red fault light illuminated on energizer. Fence short circuit (e.g., vegetation, broken insulator), energizer malfunction. Locate and clear any shorts on the fence line. Inspect insulators. If problem persists after clearing shorts, contact support.
Display not showing readings or unit not powering on. No power supply, faulty power adapter, internal fault. Check power outlet/battery connection. Test power adapter. If still no power, contact support.
Battery not charging (if applicable). Faulty battery, energizer charging circuit issue. Test battery with a separate charger. Ensure proper connection. If battery is good, contact support.

For issues not covered here, or if troubleshooting steps do not resolve the problem, please contact VOSS.farming customer support.
