Set the Boundary Width and Test the Receiver Collar

With the Boundary Wire in place and properly connected, it is time to set the containment

ﬁeld and test the system.

The Receiver Collar should NOT be on your dog when the system is tested.

Note: The Receiver Collar is waterproof, which can make the tone hard to hear.

The ﬂashing Test Light when held to the Contact Points indicates the Receiver Collar is

delivering Static Correction. To best utilize the automatic Run-Through Prevention feature,

the containment Boundary Width should extend at least 6 to 10 feet on each side of the

Boundary Wire (total Boundary Width of 12 to 20 feet).

1. Apply Power to the Fence Transmitter with the supplied Power Adapter.

2. Set the Boundary Width Control Switch (located on the side of the Fence

Transmitter)

(6A)

to the A, B, or C setting based on the total length of

Boundary Wire used.

Setting B is used for most properties.

The following

table will indicate the proper setting.

3. The width of the containment ﬁeld is adjusted using the transmitter’s

Boundary Width Control knob. Turn the knob counter clockwise until

Up to 1300 feet B

1300 to 2400 feet C

the alarm sounds and the Loop Indicator Light is no longer lit. Turn the knob clockwise and increase by 2

numbers. The alarm should turn OFF and the light should turn ON.

The Receiver Collar should not be on your dog when the system is tested. Your pet may receive an

unintended correction.

4. Place battery in Receiver Collar. To identify the Warning and Static Correction Zones make sure the Receiver

Collar is set at level 5 (see Step 5).

5. Test the Boundary Width of the system by selecting a section of straight Boundary Wire that is at least 50 feet

long. Start inside the center of the containment ﬁeld.

6. Place the Test Light Tool Contacts on the Contact Points on the

Receiver Collar (6B,6C). Hold the Receiver Collar at your dog’s

neck height with the Contact Points pointing up (6D) and the

Correction Level Button facing the Boundary Wire. Slowly walk

toward the Boundary Wire until you hear the warning tone

(6E). When you hear the warning tone, you have identiﬁed the

Boundary Width distance (Static Correction Zone).

Two seconds after the warning tone, the test light will begin to

ﬂash. This ﬂashing light can aid you in identifying the

Test Light Contacts

Boundary Width should you have difﬁculty hearing the tone. To avoid

having the Receiver Collar go into Over Correction Protection mode,

walk back into the Pet Area until the toning stops.

If the Receiver

Collar does not tone at the desired range, adjust the Boundary Width

Control knob to obtain the desired range. Turning the Boundary Width

Control knob clockwise increases the Boundary Width while turning it

counterclockwise decreases

it (6F). Repeat this activity as needed until

the Receiver Collar tones between 6 to 10 feet from the Boundary

Wire. If using a Double Loop layout, you may need to increase the

separation of the Boundary Wire and/or increase the size of the

Boundary Width to achieve the desired range.
