4.  Press the power button on the transmitter to turn it on.

The LCD screen on the transmitter will turn on and display the 
boundary distance.

If you hear an audible alarm and the transmitter LCD 
screen is flashing and displaying the wire break warning 

icon, it means the transmitter is unable to detect a continuous 
loop of boundary wire. (See 

Troubleshooting 

on page 26.)

5.  Set the boundary distance to 10:

• To decrease the boundary distance, press the - button.
• To increase the boundary distance, press the + button.

The boundary distance is the distance the radio signal travels 
from the boundary wire; it is adjustable from 5-15 feet. The 
boundary width is twice the boundary distance.
