• If you have a friend who also owns a High Tech Pet Humane
Contain system that is working, test your collar(s) on their operating
system by holding your collar next to their collar in the yard. As you
move both collars toward the wire loop both collars should beep at
about the same rate. If this is true your collar(s) is working and your
Base Station Transmitter has failed – repair or replace.
g) If you cannot determine which component has failed, return both
the collar(s) and the Base Station Transmitter to High Tech Pet
Products for analysis and repair.
3) Test the Containment Loop
h)
Once you have verified the components are working using steps
1) and 2.) above, disconnect the Test Loop Wire and re-connect
the containment wire loop to the Base Station Transmitter. Place
the working collar on the ground about five feet from the wire,
in a “clean” area of the yard. Clean means with the least amount
of metal or concrete nearby (concrete may contain metal re-bar).
This area should be free of underground pipes if possible.
i) Face the collar toward the wire. This makes the face almost
parallel to the wire at that point.
j) Turn on the Base Station Transmitter, set the Boost Power switch
to normal (NOR), and adjust the Field Strength Control Knob to
maximum (fully clockwise). If the BREAK DETECTION indicates a
break then the loop is broken and needs repair. Go to step 4).
k) The collar should now be beeping and flashing a red light on
the face of the collar. If not, the loop is intermittent and needs
repair. Go to step 4).
l) Slowly adjust the Field Strength Control Knob on the transmitter
counter clockwise until the collar stops beeping. If the collar is
still beeping when the Knob is fully counter clockwise, the Base
Station transmitter is faulty – repair or replace.
m) Slowly adjust the Knob clockwise and note the beeping starts
at a rate of about one beep every half second. Continue slowly
adjusting clockwise and note the beeping rate increases to
two short beeps every half second. Continue slowly adjusting
clockwise and note the collar beeping at an even higher rate that
sounds like a string of beeps every half second. This means the
loop and the entire system are working properly. If not the loop
is intermittent. Go to step 4).
