where you will be able to hear any alarms. Making sure
the POWER switch on the transmitter is in the OFF
position, place 8 AA alkaline backup batteries (optional,
but recommended) in the battery compartment on the
back of the transmitter. Snap the transmitter onto the
mounting plate.
3. Set Up the Collar Receiver (See Section 4.C, pg 9
for details)
In preparation for setting up your boundary wire, the
rechargeable collar receiver must be given a full
charge. Set the transmitter POWER switch to OFF, set
the FIELD SIZE switch to SM, turn the FIELD WIDTH
knob to MIN. Cut a short piece of the boundary wire
(about 6 inches) and strip about 3/8 inch of insulation
from both ends. Insert the wire ends into the LOOP ter-
minals on the transmitter. Plug the AC adapter into the
power jack on the transmitter and plug the adapter into
a nearby 110-volt household outlet. Set the transmitter
POWER switch to the ON position to charge the collar.
Position the collar receiver in the charging cradle locat-
ed on the top of the wall transmitter. Orient the light on
the collar receiver toward the end of the charging cra-
dle marked with an arrow. The transmitter light will flash
green approximately every two seconds while charging.
A full charge requires 14 hours. When charging is com-
plete, the light on the transmitter will appear solid
green. If the green light is not blinking, make sure the
receiver is oriented properly in the charging cradle. Be
sure the transmitter is turned on and check all connec-
tions. After the receiver has been fully charged, set the
POWER switch to the OFF position, remove the short
piece of boundary wire, and unplug the AC adapter
from the wall outlet.
NOTE: The transmitter will not recharge the collar
receiver if a piece of boundary wire is not installed.
4. Plan the Boundary Wire Placement (See Section
4.D, pg 9 for details)
For the system to work properly, the wire must make
one continuous loop. When placing the wire, keep in
mind that you will want at least an 8- to 12-foot con-
tainment field (8 to 12 feet on each side of the wire).
5. Place the Wire (See Section 4.E, pg 10 for details)
Place your boundary wire on top of the ground follow-
ing the tips listed in Section 4.D. Use twisted wire to
connect the transmitter to the boundary wire. Use the
supplied waterproof splices to make proper connec-
tions as described in Section 4.F.2.
DO NOT BURY THE WIRE UNTIL YOU HAVE TEST-
ED THE SYSTEM AND ARE SURE IT IS WORKING
PROPERLY. TAKE CARE NOT TO NICK OR
SCRAPE THE WIRE INSULATION DURING INSTAL-
LATION. AN INTERMITTENT SIGNAL OR NO SIG-
NAL MAY OCCUR.
6. Make the Final Connections (See Section 4.F, pg
10 for details)
Determine where the boundary wire will enter the build-
ing and drill a 1/4 inch hole through the wall, making
sure there are no wires, cables or pipes in the area you
are drilling. Make sure the POWER switch on the trans-
mitter is in the OFF position.
If installing the SD-2200 system, plug the Lightning
Protector into a nearby standard, grounded 110-volt
household outlet. Use the supplied twisted pair wire to
connect your boundary wire to the LOOP terminals on
the Lightning Protector and to connect the TRANSMIT-
TER terminals on the Lightning Protector to the LOOP
terminals on the transmitter. Plug the AC adapter into
the Lightning Protector and plug the other end of the AC
adapter into the PWR jack on the transmitter.
If installing the SD-2100 system, twist wire as described
in Section 4.D.3. to connect your boundary wire to the
LOOP terminals on the transmitter. Plug the AC
adapter into a nearby standard 110-volt household out-
let and plug the other end of the AC adapter into the
PWR jack on the transmitter.
Set the FIELD SIZE switch to SM if you are using less
than 1000 feet of boundary wire or to LG if the bound-
ary wire is longer than 1000 feet. Verify that your dog is
