For the system to work properly, the wire must make one continuous loop. The signal is transmitted
from one terminal of the transmitter, through the wire and back to the other terminal.
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR WIRE PLACEMENT:
•Do NOT run the loop within 2 meters parallel to electrical, telephone, cable TV, or other buried
wire in the yard.
•Do NOT run one section of wire within 3 meters of another section or the signal may cancel.
•Do NOT run your wire within 3 meters of any adjacent containment system's wire.
STEP 3.
ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF WIRE NEEDED
Both the battery-operated and rechargeable models include 152 meters of boundary wire. It can
enclose an area of nearly .2 hectares.
The amount of wire needed is determined by several factors:
(a) Total area to be contained
(b) Using a double loop. This requires twice as much wire.
(c) Size of the signal field. The signal field is the distance from the wire
to
the place where the collar receiver first activates. A 3 to 4 meters wide
field is preferred.
Additional boundary kits (available separately) allow you to add wire to
contain a larger area. The battery-operated model can contain up to 2
hectares. The rechargeable model can contain up to 10 hectares. Each
boundary kit includes 152 meters of wire, 50 training flags, and two
waterproof wire splices.
STEP 4.
INSTALL THE WALL TRANSMITTER
Install the wall transmitter close to a standard 220-volt
household outlet. Do not plug the transmitter to the outlet
until the boundary wire is in place.
STEP 5.
DETERMINE YARD SIZE SETTING
The wall transmitter contains an internal jumper that can be
adjusted for small or large yards. The jumper is pre-set at the
factory for small yards. The small yard setting is for an area
that requires less than 300 meters of wire. A large yard
setting is for an area that requires more than 300 meters of
wire.
