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.
7. Test the Boundary Width in a number of different
locations around the Pet Area until you are satisfied
that the system is functioning properly.
8. Next, walk all around the Pet Area to ensure
there are no areas where the Receiver Collar may
activate from signals coupled onto buried wires or
cables. Test the Receiver Collar in and around the
inside of the house as well. As mentioned, cables
and wires from cable TV, electrical or telephone
lines may conduct pet fencing signals inside and
outside the house that can activate the Receiver
Collar accidentally. While rare, if this occurs your
Boundary Wire is probably too close to these
outside lines and should be moved or modified as shown in Figure
3A
.
9. To test the run-through prevention feature, walk towards the Boundary Wire. The Receiver Collar should tone and the
Test Light should flash brighter as you enter the run-through area
(6G)
. If you are satisfied that your system is functioning
properly, you are ready to start burying the Boundary Wire. If the Receiver Collar did not tone or the Test Light did not flash,
see the “Troubleshooting” section.
STEP 7
Install the Boundary Wire
Underground cables can carry high voltage. Have all underground cables marked before you dig to
bury your wire. In most areas, this is a free service.
• Avoid damage to the insulation of the loop wire during the install. Damage may cause areas of weak signal and lead to
early failure of the loop (wire breaks).
• Before you begin installing the Boundary Wire, unplug the Fence Transmitter Power Adaptor from the outlet.
To Bury the Boundary Wire
Burying the Boundary Wire is recommended to protect it and prevent disabling the system.
1. Cut a trench 2.5 cm - 7.6 cm deep along your planned boundary.
2. Place the Boundary Wire into the trench maintaining some slack to allow it to expand and contract with
temperature variations.
3. Use a blunt tool such as a wooden paint stick to push the Boundary Wire into the trench. Be careful not to damage the
Boundary Wire insulation.
