I was home for a couple weeks and my mother decided it was time to bust out the old electric fence we used back when the farm was a full-fledged hog farm and not a butterfly and wild kitten reserve. The raccoons will soon be edging their way up the hill and into my mother's sweet corn, but this year will find a surprise.
We joked about having a counter that either sounded a tone every time an intruder was deterred, or possibly a simple two-digit display or binary readout via LEDs. I've got CMOS binary counter/dividers and probably anything else I may need in the boneyard, but I'm wondering mostly how to interface the fence's driver, (a Red Snapper 64B) which is pulsing 110v at 60hz.
Thanks for any and all advice.
