Care Centre.

The Receiver Collar has to be held
on top of the Boundary Wire
to activate.

• Perform Battery Test and replace battery if necessary.
• Adjust Boundary Width Control knob clockwise to increase the distance from

the Boundary Wire that the Receiver Collar activates.

• Verify the Boundary Control Switch is placed at the proper setting according

to the amount of Boundary Wire used (See Step 6).

• If using a Double Loop, make sure Boundary Wires are separated at least

1.5 m (5 ft).

• If the Receiver Collar still has to be held on top of the Boundary Wire,

perform the “System Test” and/or “Transmitter Loop Test”.

The Receiver Collar activates inside
the house.

• Make sure the Boundary Wire is not running within 4.5 m (15 ft) of the

I have an inconsistent signal.

• Make sure Fence Transmitter is at least 1 m (3 ft) from large metal objects

or appliances.

1 m (3 ft) radius.

• Make sure the Boundary Wire is not running parallel to and within 3 m

(10 ft) of electrical wires, neighbouring containment systems, telephone
wires, television or antenna cables, or satellite dishes.

• If a neighboring containment system may be causing an inconsistent

signal, move the Boundary Wire farther away from the neighboring
containment system.

The Power and Loop Indicator Lights
are off.

• Check that the Power Adapter is plugged into the Fence Transmitter.

• If the system is plugged into a GFCI or RCD outlet, check to see if the circuit

has been tripped. Reset the GFCI or RCD circuit if required.

• Verify that the outlet is working properly by plugging in a known working

item such as a radio.

• Remove the fuse door on the back of the Fence Transmitter and change out

the fuse with the spare one located in the same area.

• If the lights still do not come on, the Fence Transmitter and/or Power Adapter

needs to be replaced. Contact the Customer Care Centre.
