Operating Guide
Install the Barrier Transmitter
The Barrier Transmitter emits a radio signal from all sides in an elliptical 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
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 rotate back cover counter-clockwise, removing
the back cover. Install three AAA alkaline batteries and replace the back cover. Turn
clockwise to secure cover.
2. Turn the Barrier Transmitter right side up and press the (+) 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 5 inches from the unit. You can create a Barrier
Area of 5 inches to 30 inches from the unit. Using the (+) and (-) buttons, adjust the
range to fit the desired pet Barrier Area.
