3. Opsætning

3.1 Batteriinstallation

The FenceMate Digital Fence Tester FT5502 requires one 9V battery for operation. A 9V battery is typically included with the product, but may need to be installed before first use or replaced when the 'Battery Low' indicator appears.

1. Locate the battery compartment on the back of the device. It is secured by screws.
2. Using a small screwdriver, carefully remove the screws and open the battery compartment cover.
3. Connect a new 9V battery to the battery clip, ensuring correct polarity.
4. Place the battery inside the compartment and replace the cover, securing it with the screws.

3.2 Montering af bælteclipsen

The device comes with a pre-installed belt clip for convenient carrying. Ensure it is securely attached before use.

4. Betjeningsvejledning

4.1 Grundlæggende betjening

Follow these steps to measure fence voltage og nuværende:

1. Tænd: Press the 'Power ON' button located on the front of the device. The LCD display will illuminate.
2. Contact Fence: Hook the metal voltage probe at the top of the tester onto the electric fence wire. Ensure good contact.
3. Læs display: The LCD will immediately display the fence voltage in kilovolts (kV) and the current in Amps (A). The current direction arrow will indicate the flow of current.
4. Fejlfinding: Move along the fence line, taking readings at various points. A significant drop in voltage or a change in current direction can indicate a fault location.

4.2 Fortolkning af aflæsninger

• Voltage (kV): Indicates the electrical potential of the fence. A healthy fence should maintain a consistent voltage niveau.
• Nuværende (A): Represents the flow of electricity. Higher current readings can sometimes indicate a fault or leakage.
• Current Direction: The arrow on the display helps pinpoint the direction of current flow, which is crucial for quickly locating where a fault might be drawing power from the fence.

5. Vedligeholdelse

• Rensning: Tør enheden af ​​med en blød, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water. The device is rainproof, but not submersible.
• Opbevaring: Store the tester in a dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
• Udskiftning af batteri: Replace the 9V battery when the 'Battery Low' indicator appears on the display to ensure accurate readings.
