Additional Boundary Wire
Extra direct burial Boundary Wire can be purchased in 150 m (500 feet)
spools at the store where you purchased the kit or through the Customer
Care Centre.
Note: When adding Boundary Wire, it must act as a continuous loop.
The table at right indicates the approximate length of Boundary Wire
needed for a square, Single Loop layout. Length will vary due to the
amount of twisted wire and layout used. Remember that a Double
Loop will require twice as much wire.

Connect the Wires to the Fence Transmitter
Boundary Wire
(4A)
1. Run the Boundary Wire to the Fence Transmitter through a window, under a
door, through a crawl space vent, or any other appropriate available access. You
can also drill a hole through your wall.
2. Strip the ends of the Boundary Wire approximately 1 cm (
3
/
8
").
3. Insert the Boundary Wires into the Boundary Wire Terminals on the Fence
Transmitter. Make sure the wires do not touch each other at the terminals.
4. Turn the Boundary Width Control knob to 10. This will set the Warning Zone
at the maximum width.
5. Plug the Power Adapter into the Power Socket and a working outlet. The
Power Adapter comes with the North American plug installed and additional
plugs for the UK, Europe, and Australia. To change the plug:
a. Push in the tab on the Power Adapter and remove the plug by sliding it off as
shown ( 4B ).
b. Slide the proper plug for your electrical outlet onto the Power Adapter

Do not install, connect, or remove your system during a lightning storm. If the storm is close enough for you
to hear thunder, it is close enough to create hazardous surges.
Risk of electric shock. Use the fence transmitter indoors in a dry location only.
If possible, DO NOT use an outlet protected with a Residual Current Device (RCD) or Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). The fence system will function properly, but in rare cases, nearby lightning strikes may cause the
RCD or GFCI to trip. Without power, your pet may be vulnerable to escape. You will have to reset the RCD or GFCI to
restore power to the system.
For added protection for the Fence Transmitter when unused for long periods of time or prior to
thunderstorms, disconnect the Loop Boundary Wires and unplug the Power Adapter from the outlet. This will prevent
damage to the Transmitter due to surges.
