*All Mini Pet 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 12) for instructions on
how to utilize mode A and B.
Test the Barrier Area
Step 3
1. Keeping your hands away from the Contact Points, use the edge of the Test Light Tool to turn
the receiver battery door to the ON position.
2. Hold the Receiver Collar with the Contact Points facing up. Place the Test Light Tool on the
Contact Points so that the wire in the Test Light Tool touches the Contact Points (
3A
). The
PetSafe
®
logo on the Receiver Collar should face the Transmitter.
3. Hold the Receiver Collar at the approximate height of your pet’s neck (
3B
). Start outside
of the range and walk slowly toward the Barrier Transmitter. As you reach the Barrier Area,
the Receiver Collar emits a series of high-pitched tones. For each tone you hear, you should
notice the Test Light flashing which indicates that a Progressive Static Correction is being
delivered. The Receiver Collar’s tone is easily heard by pets but may be at a volume level
difficult for some humans to hear.
4. Check the range of the Barrier Area from multiple angles to ensure you are getting
the desired coverage.
Note: Should you find that you are not getting the desired range at the maximum setting, move
the Barrier Transmitter 30 cm, or change from its standing-on-end position to laying flat. Metal
objects can alter the magnetic field and change the transmitting signal range. The effect on the
range depends on the size and shape of the objects. Signal range can be reduced if the Barrier
Transmitter is placed on a concrete floor, due to steel reinforcement in the concrete. For best
range results, place the Barrier Transmitter on a nonconductive surface, i.e., wood floor or table.
Placing the Barrier Transmitter beneath sofas and beds can reduce the range due to the metal
springs altering the magnetic field.
