A.2.1 SENSITIVITY
The percentage variance of the fence voltage pulses at animal contact (Alarm Type 1) is set using the three dip switches SW1-1, SW1-2 and SW1-3.

Initial default setting is 2%.

If Alarm Type 1 is false-triggered:
   Sensitivity must be re-set one step up.
   If insufficient Sensitivity is determined, re-set one step down.

A.2.2 ENERGIZER VOLTAGE (not connected to the fence)
The value of the voltage pulse when any energizer is running with no load is set using SW1-4, SW1-5 and SW1-6. The "Low Voltage Alarm" (Alarm Type 2) is triggered when the fence voltage relative to ground goes below 30% of this value.

The initial default setting is for an ElectroBraid™ 2.5 joule energizer is 500.

CAUTION: The use of a different energizer will require proper adjustment of this setting. In case of mismatch, the "Low Voltage Alarm" will be triggered at a different level than expected (may be no alarm or false alarm).

SETTING THE ENERGIZER VOLTAGE AUTOMATICALLY:
The Fence Minder™ also has a Learning Mode that can determinel automatically the correct Count value for an operating energizer.
