Troubleshooting Tips
If you experience problems with your Dog Guard equipment, there are several
things you can check to determine the nature of the problem. If, after reviewing
the following areas, you still can not determine the problem, please contact your
Dog Guard dealer.
Check Your Lights!
•
If the
GREEN
light is off, your unit does not have power. This problem can
easily be fixed by making sure your AC adaptor is plugged into the wall outlet
and the on/off switch is in the
ON
position.
•
If the unit receives a
lightning strike
, the
YELLOW
light will come on
sometimes, simultaneously with an
audible alarm
depending on the extent of
damage to the unit. At this time, please contact your Dog Guard dealer.
•
If the
RED
light is not on, and the alarm is going off, there is a
break in the
wire loop
. To locate and repair wire breaks, follow the procedures below:
Verifying a wire break
Step 1
Loosen the two center screws where the twisted pair connects to the
transmitter. Insert one leg of a choke coil (10uH, RF, 1.5 amps; can
be purchased at Radio Shack, part #273-102B) under each screw and
tighten. If the RED light reappears, proceed to step 2.
If the RED light does NOT reappear, please contact your Dog Guard
dealer.
