Operating Guide
Install the Barrier Transmitter
The Barrier Transmitter emits a radio signal from all sides in a spherical pattern. The
signal may transmit through a wall or the ceiling/floor. The Barrier Transmitter can be
placed laying flat on a surface or hung on a wall. If you choose to hang the Barrier
Transmitter, note that the signal becomes very directional—the signal will be strongest
directly in front of and behind the unit. The signal is weakest to the side of the unit.
Do not:
• Hang unit on a metal wall
• Place Barrier Transmitter on metal surfaces
• Place Barrier Transmitter near large metal objects such as refrigerators, washers, etc.
• Place Barrier Transmitter near audio speakers
To keep the Barrier Transmitter in place on smooth surfaces, place the four grip pads to
the bottom of the unit.
To avoid damage to the transmitter do not use on wet surfaces, in damp or
wet locations or around swimming pools. This product is designed for indoor use only.
Do not expose to rain or snow.
Set Up the Barrier Transmitter
To prevent an unintended correction, never perform set-up procedures while
your pet is wearing the Receiver Collar.
1. Turn over the Barrier Transmitter and slide open the
battery door. Install three AA alkaline batteries and
replace the battery door.
2. Turn the Barrier Transmitter right side up and press
the UP (+) arrow button once to turn ON the Barrier
Transmitter. A black bar in the upper right hand
corner of the LCD display window indicates that the
Barrier Transmitter is set to mode A* (2A). A second
black bar in the bottom of the LCD display indicates
the range is set to one segment.
3. Each segment represents approximately two feet of
diameter. You can create a Barrier Area of 2 feet in
diameter up to 12 feet in diameter. Using the UP (+)
and DOWN (-) arrow buttons, adjust the range to fit
the desired pet Barrier Area.
2A
*All Indoor Barriers and Receiver Collars are preset to mode A. The A and B mode
feature is designed to be used in multiple pet households where you may want one
pet to be able to access an area while preventing access by another pet. For single
pet households, you will not need to operate the Barrier Transmitter in any mode
other than A. Please see the Additional Features section of this operating and training
guide (beginning on page 11) for instructions on how to utilize mode A and B.
