2.0 Introduction
How it works
Electric fences are an excellent perimeter security option. They operate on 3 levels:
x They instil fear of electrocution in the minds of potential intruders
x They can give a nasty shock to anyone who attempts to breach the fence
x The fence can be monitored to give an alarm if it is cut or shorted.
A security electric fence consists of one or more sets of live wires around a secure area. The
live wires are powered by the “energiser” and monitored so that if the live wires are shorted
to ground or cut an alarm is sounded.
The energiser places a very short, very high voltage pulse on the fence live wires
approximately once every second. The fence is ‘safe’ in that the pulse is too short to cause
electrocution. The PTE1000 monitors the fence (via the return or feedback wire) to check that
the high voltage makes it all the way around the fence and hasn’t been shorted.

DANGER:
x There are potentially lethal voltage inside the PTE1000, refer to qualified service
personal for repair.
x The high voltage capacitors inside the PTE1000 may take a long time to discharge.
x Before working on the wiring of an electric fence it is recommended that the energiser
be turned off and an intentional short circuit is placed from the fence live wires to
earth. This is a sensible precaution against the energiser being turned on by others
while you are working on the fence.

Models
The PTE1013 is a single channel security energiser. The PTE1013 is capable of
conventional or Bi-polar operation. In Bi-polar operation the PTE1013 display both the
positive and negative voltages on the LCD. The control switches on the base of the PTE1013
are on / off and high / low power mode.
The PTE1023 is a dual channel conventional security energiser. It has two independent
output channels so it is equivalent to having two energisers in one enclosure. Each channel
has a high voltage output and a monitor return input. There is a separate control on/off switch
for each channel.

Internal Beeper / Keypad Beeper
The internal beeper and keypad beeper will sound when there is either a fence alarm or a
general alarm (Like AC fail or low battery).
Bi-Polar
The Bi-polar system has been used for many years in agricultural electric fences in Australia.
The Bi-polar fence is made up of alternating positive (+ve) and negative (-ve) wires instead of
live and earth. Bi-polar has the benefit for security purposes in that all wires on the fence are
live with respect to earth, so every wire gives a shock, and anything touching both wires
receives a larger shock. The trade off is that the voltage on each set of wires to earth is
approximately half that of a conventional fences live wires. The voltage between the wires is
the same as for a conventional fence. To set a PTE1013 to bi-polar mode simply set the CH2
alarm threshold above 0, since in conventional mode the Ch2 alarm is not used.
For diagrams showing how to connect the PTE1000 to a fence see chapter 7.
Synchronised Groups of PTE1000’s
PTE1000 series energisers may be linked to form a “group” to power multiple sectors. Using
Pakton’s Simultaneous Pulse technology. See appendix B.
Cabling
High voltage cabling (fence lead out and returns) should be run using suitably rated cable.
Double insulated electric fence “underground” cable is suitable. High Voltage Cables should
never be run within the same conduit as Low Voltage Cables. A minimum distance of 30mm
should be kept between High Voltage and Low Voltages Cables.
Lightning protection
Although the PTE1000 contains internal lightning protection elements external lightning
protection elements such as the PTE0050 are recommended.
Monitor Earth
The PTE1000 has two fence earth terminals, in most installations these may be joined and
only one wire use to connect to the earth. If, however there is any risk of the earth connection
being lost then the monitor earth should be connected to a separate earth.
Noise and interference
The PTE1000 contains a microprocessor. Extreme electrical noise can upset
microprocessors. The most likely cause of such noise is the high voltage output from the unit
itself. In the event of erratic behaviour check that the high voltage wiring is firmly connected
to the terminals and that no sparking is seen. The PTE1000 is designed to self-recover from
interference, powering off (both AC and battery) should not be necessary.
Programmable options
The PTE1000 has many programmable options. These are also known as setup parameters.
To alter these options a keypad may be used. The options are explained in chapter 9. Each
parameter has a factory set default.

Low Power mode
PTE1000 series energisers are able to be switched into low power mode. Low Power mode
may be used in situations where the fence is not required to be a deterrent but is still required
to actively detect intrusion. In Low Power mode the fence live wires operate at a much lower
voltage, typically 500V peak. The PTE1013 has a low power switch, while the PTE1023 can
only be switched to low power mode via the keypad, unless a special version is ordered.

6.0 Installation
Installation Steps.
1 Read the entire manual first!
2 Design and build the fence (beyond the scope of this manual), ask your distributor
for help if required.
3 Decide where the PTE1000 is to be mounted. It should be inside, under cover. If
on an external wall it should be within a wiring box and definitely not in direct
sunlight.
4 Mount the enclosure to the wall. Use two screws 121mm apart.
5 Run the cables to the enclosure, ensure high voltage and low voltage cables are
kept at least 30mm apart at all points.
6 The high voltage output terminals must be tight, if they are loose and spark it could
cause erratic behaviour.
7 Ensure that the unit is switched off at the switches (or remote device if one is
connected).
8 Connect battery.
9 Turn AC power on.
10 Turn the energiser on.
11 If a LCD display PCB or Keypad is fitted it should now show that the unit is armed
and there is voltage on the fence.
12 The unit is now ready for operation.
13 Check the fence is live using an Electric Fence Power Probe ®
14 Place an intentional short on the fence and check that the energiser shows an
alarm.
See Sections 6 and 7 for connections and wiring diagrams. For information on creating a
suitable electric fence earth refer to an agricultural electric fence manual such as the Daken
Electric Fencing Manual (website www.daken.com.au). The mains electrical earth should not
be used.

TECHNICAL STUFF
Your PTE1000 security energiser has been designed to be easy to control. In it’s simplest
form it is operated by the on / off switches at the base of the unit. If the Keypad has been
installed it can be remotely controlled from the keypad, the keypad also allows instant
audiovisual indication of the state of the energiser and therefore the fence it is powering.
If the keypad is connected then the local switches (at the base of the unit) may not be
operational, they may have been disconnected by your installer. It is also possible that the
controls of the energiser are permanently wired into you home alarm system so that the
energiser starts and stops under the control of that system.
If there are two ways to control the energiser both connected at once, i.e. keypad and local
switches, then the last change will determine the result. I.e. if the unit is turned on via the
keypad and then off at the local switch it will turn off.
If in doubt ask your installer.
When you first see the LED keypad the system will probably be off.
The only light on will be the POWER light.
SWITCHING THE FENCE ON (ARMING)
Enter your PIN number (four digits long) and push the #key.
Make sure the red ARM light comes on.
The keypad will beep twice to confirm that the system is armed.
The fence will power up and if all is well (no faults) the system will be ready to deter and
detect.
If there is a fault on the fence and it cannot achieve full voltage zone 1 or 2 LIGHT’s will flash.
To switch off (disarm) the system Enter your PIN and press #, this will also clear any fault
lights and zone lights which may have been on.
TURNING ONE ZONE (FENCE) ON ONLY (PTE102X ONLY).
Enter your PIN and press *21# to turn zone 1 on but leave zone 2 off (if it was off).
Enter your PIN and press *22# to turn zone 2 on but leave zone 1 off (if it was off).
TURNING TO LOW POWER MODE
Enter your PIN and press *41# to switch to low power mode. In low power mode the fence
will still be on and any breach will be detected but the voltage will be much lower than normal
operation. The ARM light will flash in Low Power mode.
Enter your PIN and press *42# to switch back to full power mode
WHEN AN ALARM OCCURS
If the system is armed and the fence is tampered with the corresponding zone light will flash
and then light. A siren or strobe connected to the unit will turn on. If the energiser is
connected to a building alarm system for monitoring then follow the procedure as set down in
the building alarm system manual.

08/07/2006 10:11 PM Page 18 of 43
TO SILENCE THE ALARM.
Enter your PIN and press #. This will silence the alarm but not disarm the system, the
armed light will still be on.
The zone lights on the keypad will flash to show where the breach occurred.
The siren and strobe are ready to respond again if needed.
To disarm the system Enter your PIN and press #again, this will also clear the zone light.
CHANGING YOUR PIN NUMBER.
Enter the old PIN and press *0#, this enters user programming mode.
Enter your new PIN (must be 4 digits) and them #.
Press *# to exit user programming mode.
Make sure your new PIN works by using it to arm the energiser.
The default PIN is 1234.
STANDBY BATTERY
Should there be a loss of mains power the Power light on the keypad will go out. If the loss of
power is prolonged the battery may go flat. The Power light will start to flash indicating a flat
battery.
If the standby battery requires replacement the Power LIGHT will flash and the Service light
will light.
SERVICE LIGHT
If the energiser develops an internal fault the service light will come on. Call the installer for
service.
