Set the Boundary Width and Test the Receiver Collar
Step
6
The Boundary Control Switch on the side of the
Fence Transmitter has three settings (6A). Setting B
is used for most properties. The following table will
indicate the setting you should use.
Amount of Wire
Up to 400 m (1300 ft)
400-730 m (1300-2400 ft)
Greater than 730 m (2400ft)
Use the Boundary Width Control knob to set the
width of the Warning Zone and Static Correction
Zone (6B). Set the Boundary Width as wide as
possible to give your cat the widest Warning and
Static Correction Zones without reducing the
Pet Area too much.
Note: The Boundary Width Control knob does not
change the Static Correction Level.
To identify the Warning and Static Correction
Zones, make sure the Receiver Collar batteries are
properly installed and the Test Light is attached
to the Contact Points (6C, 6D). Walk toward the
Boundary Wire with Contact Points pointing up
and holding the Receiver Collar at your cat's neck
level (6E) until the Receiver Collar beeps (6F).
Note: The Receiver Collar is waterproof, which can
make the beep hard to hear.
If the Receiver Collar does not beep at the desired
range, adjust the Boundary Width Control knob
to the desired setting. Turning the Boundary
Width Control knob
clockwise increases the
Boundary Width while
turning it counterclockwise
decreases it (6B). Repeat
this activity as needed until
the Receiver Collar beeps at
the desired distance from the
Boundary Wire.
The numbers on the
Boundary Width Control
knob indicate signal strength
and are not representative of
Boundary Width footage. If adjusting the Boundary Width Control knob does not give the desired range, adjust the
Boundary Control Switch to another setting to achieve your desired range. If using a Double Loop, you may need to
increase the separation of the Boundary Wire to achieve desired range.
The Receiver Collar beeps as a warning tone and ticks when delivering a Static Correction. After hearing the beep,
continue to walk towards the wire. The Receiver Collar should tick and the Test Light should fl ash, indicating the Static
Correction as you enter the Static Correction Zone (6G). A warning tone and the fl ashing of the Test Light indicate that
the Receiver Collar and the system are working properly and that you are ready to start burying the Boundary Wire. If the
Receiver Collar did not beep or the Test Light did not fl ash, see the "Troubleshooting" section.
Important: Remove the Test Light before placing the receiver on your cat.
Note: The Boundary Width is broken down into 20% Warning Zone and 80% Static Correction Zone.
