1. Select a Location – Select an indoor, dry location to

hang the wall-mount transmitter. You will need a
standard 220v AC grounded outlet within 1.5m to power
the transmitter. Most people find an inside exterior wall
of a garage or basement works well. You will need easy
access to run the pet fencing wire outside.

2. Install the Mounting Plate – The mounting plate is

attached to the back of the transmitter. Remove by
lightly depressing the top tab and sliding the
transmitter housing up the plate. Use the mounting
plate as your template and mark holes with pencil.
Fasten plate with supplied screws and wall anchors if
necessary.

3. Install Battery Backup Batteries – (Optional, but

recommended) In the event your power goes out, your
system can run for up to 40 hours on 8 AA batteries
(not included). Install batteries and set BATTERY
BACKUP MONITOR switch to the ON position. If you
choose not to use the battery backup system, set the
BATTERY BACKUP MONITOR switch to OFF.

4. Provide for wire access to outside – You will need to

get the wire from the transmitter to outside where the
pet fencing loop will run. This can be done through a
window or you can drill a 6mm hole at the base of the
wall to pass the wire through. After final installation
and testing is complete, caulk the hole to prevent
damage from moisture or insects.

With the transmitter installed and the hole drilled for the
wire, you can position the boundary wire that will form your
fence. DO NOT bury the wire until you are sure that the
system is functioning properly.

1. Amount of wire

Your system includes 150m
of boundary wire. The IUC-
5100E includes an
additional 30m of pre-
twisted wire. For larger
areas, boundary kits with wire and splices, as well as
convenient pre-twisted wire are available from your retailer
or call the Innotek Service Center. The chart below offers
some examples of wire coverage area.

Front and Back Yard Loop. The most common
installation. The wire is placed just inside the property line
to form a square or rectangle.

Hourglass Loop. Allows your dog to be contained in either
the front or back yard but not around the side of the house.
When the wire runs parallel to itself as it goes toward the
side of the house be sure the wires don't come within 2m
of one another to avoid canceling the signal.

Double Loop. Confines your dog to the backyard only.The wire
needs to run around the backyard,using the house as a natural
barrier and doubling back to the transmitter to finish the
complete loop.When doubling back, make sure that there is at
least 2m between the lines to avoid canceling the signal.
