Step 5:  Connect the perimeter boundary wire to the wall transmitter 
 

The two boundary wires from the start of your perimeter to the wall transmitter should 
be twisted together to cancel any signal.  This  will allow  your dog to cross the area 
without  receiving  any  correction.    In  addition,  it  eliminates  any  possible  interference 
from other electrical wires, telephone cables etc.  This should be done as follows: 
 
(i)  Measure  the  distance  from  the  wall  transmitter  to  the  starting  point  of  your 

perimeter.  Multiply the distance by 1.5 to allow for the decrease in length when 
the  wires  are  twisted  together.    Cut  two  equal  lengths  of  boundary  wire  to  this 
measurement. 

(ii)  Hold  the  two  ends  of  the  wire  side  by  side  and  begin  twisting  them  together.  

These can be twisted manually until the twists are 6-12cms apart.  The tighter the 
twist, the better the signal cancellation. 

(iii)  Splice the ends of the twisted wire with the two ends of the perimeter boundary 

wire using waterproof connectors.   

(iv)  To use the waterproof connector, simply clean-cut the wires to be joined.  Do not 

strip them down.  Put the ends firmly into the two holes of the connector.  Using 
pliers, firmly,  but evenly,  squash down the button.   This connects  the wires and 
covers  them  with  grease  (already  inside  the  connector)  which  makes  the  join 
waterproof. 

(v)  Run  the  twisted  wire  back  to  the  wall  transmitter.    This  may  require  pulling  the 

wire through a prepared hole in the external wall.  For your safety, please ensure 
there are no electrical wires, nails or screws within the area you are drilling. 

(vi)  To  connect  the  ends  of  the  twisted  wire  to  the  wall  transmitter,  strip  off 

approximately  1cm  of  wire  insulation  from  each  end  of  wire.    Insert  a  wire  into 
each of the terminals of the wall transmitter. 

(vii) Plug  the  power  adaptor  into  a  standard  240-volt  mains  outlet  and  connect  the 

other end to the power port of the wall transmitter. 
 

Step 6:  Verify the wall transmitter and perimeter boundary wire are functioning 

correctly 

 

(i)  Turn the signal field-width knob clockwise.  The OK and Power light should  turn 

green.    This  means  the  wall  transmitter  is  receiving  power  and  both  boundary 
wires are connected and form an uninterrupted, continuous loop. 

(ii) 

If the ‘Break’ light turns red, one or both wires are not connected properly to the 
wall  transmitter.    Or,  if  both  wires  are  connected,  then  check  to  ensure  the 
boundary wire is not damaged.  Correct the problem and retest. 

(iii)  Switch off the wall transmitter 

 

Step 7:  Set up the collar-receiver 

Insert the 6-volt battery into the collar-receiver following the positive (+) and negative 
(-) signs inside the battery compartment.  When the 

single ‘beep’ sounds, the collar-

receiver is working properly. 
 

Once  you  have  installed  the  wall  transmitter,  placed  the  unburied  boundary 
wire along the perimeter of the containment area and completed the tests of the 
wall transmitter and the collar-receiver, you are ready to adjust the signal field 
width then manually test the complete MGG radio-controlled hidden dog fence 
system
