Setup in None-Base Zone
3
Note
Setup in a non-Base zone, which is not connected to the Base
Station, requires a Perimeter Switch (available as an accesso-
ry – see Chapter 9 - Accessory, page 55).
Perimeter Switch Location
z Find a convenient spot outside the perimeter of the non-Base zo-
ne, but a location that is relatively easy for you to access.
z The Perimeter Switch must be mounted vertically in order to
maintain its' water resistance and preferably in a dry and shelte-
red location.
z Close to a wall socket (230V/120V) – the Perimeter Switch is sup-
plied with an indoor power supply.
Placing the Perimeter Switch
z The Perimeter Switch connector is designed for quick and easy
disconnection that allows you to easily move the perimeter
switch between plots.
z The Perimeter Switch also comes
with a large stake that fastens to its
back, making transfer from one plot
to another easier by allowing you to
disconnect the switch and move it
with the stake still attached.
z Another option is to mount the Perimeter Switch onto a vertical
surface, such as a wall or deck railing. There are three small
bosses on the back of the switch cover in order to mount it this
way:
1. Squeeze the tabs on both sides to re-
move cover.
2. Mounting the Perimeter Switch using
three mounting bosses on back co-
ver.

Laying Out the Perimeter Wire
z Now, knowing the Perimeter Switch location, you can begin the
setup of the Perimeter Wire. The perimeter wire setup in a Base
and non-Base zone is identical in terms of placement and faste-
ning.
1. At the location of the perimeter switch, strip back 5 mm (0.2 in-
ches) of insulation from the wire end.
2. Insert the wire end to the left side of
the plot connector.
3. Peg/fix the beginning of the wire where the Perimeter Switch will
be located.
4. Lay the wire from the Perimeter Switch to the lawn; be sure to
leave enough wire at the beginning to close the loop.
5. Start laying the wire to the counterclockwise direction when
standing inside the law.
