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.

Install the Boundary Wire

Before you begin installing the Boundary Wire, unplug the Fence Transmitter power adapter 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 1-3 inches 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.

can be attached to a chain link

fence, split rail fence, or a wooden privacy fence. The

Boundary Wire can be attached as high as needed.

However, make sure the Boundary Width is set at a high

enough range for the pet to receive the signal. If using

a Double Loop with an existing fence at least five feet

tall, run the Boundary Wire on top of the fence and

return it on the bottom of the fence to get the five foot

separation needed.
• Chain Link Fence (7A): Weave Boundary Wire

through the links or use plastic quick ties.

• Wooden Split Rail or Privacy Fence (7A): Use staples

to attach Boundary Wire. Avoid puncturing

the insulation of the Boundary Wire.

• Double Loop with an Existing Fence: Run the Boundary Wire on top of the fence and return it on the bottom of

the fence to get the five foot separation needed.

• Gate (Single Loop) (7B) : Bury the Boundary Wire in the ground across the gate opening. Note: The signal is still

active across the gate. Your pet cannot pass through an open gate.

• Gate (Double Loop) (7B): Bury both Boundary Wires across the gate opening while keeping them at least 5 feet

apart.
