A. Special Features to Increase the Effectiveness of
the System
1. The Warning Tone - With the STIM LEVEL switch
set to LOW or MED your dog will hear a two second
warning tone when he reaches the edge of the contain-
ment field in the yard. If your dog does not return to the
safe part of the yard, he will receive a continuous stim-
ulation (at the Low or Medium stimulation level switch
setting) until he re-enters the safe part of the yard.
Note: If the STIM LEVEL switch is set on HIGH, there
will be no warning tone prior to the stimulation.
2. Run-Through Prevention - Special features are
incorporated in your system so your dog cannot "run-
through" the containment field without activating a
strong stimulation. The receiver automatically increas-
es the stimulation when your dog continues more than
1/3 of the way through the containment field, regardless
of the transmitter stimulation level setting. For exam-
ple, if the signal is detected 12 feet from the wire and
your dog enters the containment field, this feature is
activated when he is approximately eight feet from the
wire. At this point, your dog automatically receives the
highest level of stimulation.
3. Over-Stimulation Prevention - In the unlikely event
that your dog becomes "trapped" in the containment
field, this feature limits stimulation duration to 10 sec-
onds. The system shuts off for 10 seconds before
resuming stimulation for another 10 seconds. This pat-
tern will repeat for a maximum of three cycles, a dura-
tion of 60-seconds.
The light on the collar receiver will pulsate red when
stimulation is delivered, appear solid green when stim-
ulation is locked out, and flash yellow if the 60-second
period has expired and the dog remains in the contain-
ment field.
B. Receiver Indicator Lights
The receiver includes an indicator light and a tone gen-
erator that allow the user to distinguish the various
operational conditions of the receiver. These conditions
are summarized in the following table:
SECTION 3. EXTERNAL LIGHTNING
PROTECTOR SD-2200 MODEL ONLY
The SD-2200 system includes an external lightning pro-
tection unit, which helps protect the transmitter from
electrical power surges and lightning strikes near your
boundary wire. A nearby lightning strike can induce
damaging high voltage on the boundary wire and elec-
trical power lines, which can damage an unprotected
containment transmitter. The lightning protector pro-
tects your system in two ways. Lower level voltage
spikes from nearby lightning strikes and power line
surges are suppressed to a level that will not damage
your transmitter. Severe lightning strikes may result in
damage to the Lightning Protector, which is designed to
be a sacrificial link in the system. Your transmitter will
remain unharmed and your Lightning Protector can be
replaced under the terms of the Lightning Protector life-
time warranty (see Limited Warranty Section pg. 25).
System components which are not properly protected
by the supplied Lightning Protector will not be covered
for lightning damage under the warranty (see Limited
Warranty Section pg 25). Your Lightning Protector has
a green power light that indicates the unit is receiving
household power.
For enhanced lightning protection with the SD-2100
system, the lightning protector may be purchased sep-
arately by contacting Innotek at 1-800-826-5527.
Note that this Lightning Protector is specifically designed for electronic
dog containment systems and will not protect other kinds of equipment
against lightning damage or AC surges.
