INSTALLATION
Connecting the Fence Wire to the Transmitter
Splice the two ends of the twisted wire to each of
the two ends of the fence wire.
Drill a hole through the exterior wall or
window/door sill or run the fence wire through an
existing utility line hole. Connect the twisted fence
wire to the transmitter, either wire to either terminal
(wire ends must be stripped 1/2 -inch). A red
indicator light should appear indicating a continuous
fence wire field. If no light appears, check to make
sure that all fence wires are properly connected and
that the wire is not damaged.

The Signal Field
The Field Width Adjustment Knob on the
transmitter controls the signal field width. Increasing
or decreasing the signal field width does not affect
the stimulation intensity.To test the signal field, walk
slowly toward the boundary wire holding the
collar/receiver at approximately the height of the
dog's neck. Contact points must be upward with the
test light attached. Watch for the test lamp to
illuminate, this will give you an idea of the width of
the signal field. The wider the signal field is, the less
chance that the dog will run through the field and out
of your yard.The signal field should extend at least 6
feet on both sides of the wire (creating a field that is
12-feet wide total). An 8-12 foot field is preferred.
This will maximize the effectiveness of the
containment system and minimize the chances that
the dog will run through the signal field.
