This owner’s manual covers the instructions for both the battery-operated collar receiver and rechargeable collar
receiver containment systems. Throughout this manual are notes pertaining to each of these system types.

STEP 1.
PREPARE A LAYOUT OF YOUR CONTAINMENT AREA
A. Design and Draw Diagram

Prepare a diagram of the area you want to contain your dog. A diagram will help to avoid unforeseen obstacles.
Include the location of house, driveway, pond, garden, swimming pool, etc. If your neighbor has a containment sys-
tem installed, mark the location of the buried wire on your diagram.

B. Contact Utility Company

Contact your utility companies to mark any buried utility lines. Be sure to include the buried lines on your drawing
because these utility lines will affect the placement of your wire.

C. Determine Location of Wall Transmitter

The transmitter can be mounted to a wall near any standard 220-volt household outlet with the included screws.
It will withstand freezing temperatures, but it is not waterproof. Therefore, it is best to locate the transmitter in an
enclosed area.

NOTE FOR RECHARGEABLE SYSTEMS: The wall transmitter must be mounted in an environment where the
ambient temperature is between 0 degrees C and 45 degrees C.

D. Determine the Exit Route of Your Boundary Wire from the Transmitter to the Outside Containment Area

Since your transmitter must be mounted in an enclosed area to protect it from the weather, give careful consider-
ation on where the wire exits to the exterior. Existing openings such as a window, door or utility line hole may pro-
vide easy access to the outside. You may need to drill a hole through the exterior wall.

STEP 2.
ADD PROPOSED WIRE LOCATION TO YOUR DRAWING
Mark your diagram with the proposed location of your wire. This will provide an easy reference as you install the
wire.

For the system to work properly, the wire must make one continuous loop. The signal is transmitted from one ter-
minal of the transmitter, through the wire and back to the other terminal.

To allow back door entry with back

yard containment.

To keep dog away

from a specific area.
