Understanding Signal Variations
Because the signal will vary and change overtime due to different types of
interferences stated above, plan your layout with a 20 feet leeway for signal
inconsistency. From the image above, assuming the yellow circle boundary is
your desired boundary where your dog must not pass, you should set the signal
level strength at where the blue circle is which is 20 feet before the yellow
boundary. The reason is to make sure your dog will not pass the yellow
boundary when the signal somehow gets stronger due to reasons such as
change in weather and temperature.
·
If the signal changes and gets stronger, the collar receiver will start
shocking at the yellow boundary (your desired boundary limit).
·
If the signal gets weaker, the collar receiver may start shocking 20 feet
before the blue boundary.
·
In an ideal scenario with no signal lost, the collar receiver will start shocking
when your dog gets to the blue circle.
