Driveways/Sidewalks
When crossing an asphalt driveway, make a 1/2-inch deep cut across the driveway using a circular
saw and masonry blade. Close the crack with asphalt sealant after the fence wire is placed in it. If an
expansion joint is available on driveway and sidewalks, place anti runaway fence wire in the joint
and close it with outdoor caulk. When crossing gravel, bury fence wire at least 3 inches deep. PVC
pipes or a garden hose can be used to protect the wire. In water, anchor the wire with large rocks.
Use PVC piping or garden hose to protect the wire.
WIRE SPLICING
The wire connection must be waterproof
Do not use electrical tape, or soldered/twisted wire nuts in
this type of connection as it will cause an intermittent signal
or disarm the system. The waterproof splices included in the
anti runaway fence system are designed to provide a sealed
connection between the wires. The insulation on the
boundary wire should not be stripped before placing wire
into the holes. To use the waterproof splices, boundary wire
is placed into the outer holes of the splices. This should leave the center hole empty. A pair of pliers
should be used to gently press down and snap together the top of the blue part of the splice.

Connecting the Fence Wire to the Transmitter
Splice the two ends of the twisted wire to each of the two ends of the
fence wire. Drill a hole through the exterior wall or window/door sill or run
the fence wire through an existing utility line hole. Connect the twisted
fence wire to the transmitter, either wire to either terminal (wire ends must
be stripped ½ inch) A red indicator light should appear indicating a
continuous fence wire field. If no light appears, check to make sure that all
fence wires are properly connected and that the wire is not damaged.
The Signal Field
The Field Width Adjustment Knob on the transmitter controls the
signal field width. Increasing or decreasing the signal field width
does not affect the stimulation intensity. To test the signal field,
walk slowly toward the boundary wire holding the receiver/collar
at approximately the height of the dog’s neck. Contact points must
be upward with the test light attached. Watch for the test lamp to
illuminate, this will give you an idea of the width of the signal field.
The most common and desirable signal strength will be found by
setting the system in the green/yellow zone. Thus creating a 2ft - 6ft
signal area.
