How the System Works
The Boundary Plus
®
and Microlite
®
Plus Computer Collar
®
Units are compatible with Boundary Plus
®
and 800 Series
Transmitters to contain your pet within areas you choose, or teach your pet to avoid specific areas such as flower beds,
gardens, or pools. The transmitter produces a signal that travels along the signal field wire and back to the transmitter to
produce an Invisible Boundary
®
barrier.
When your pet approaches the established boundary, the Computer Collar
®
Unit generates a tone and correction to remind
your pet of the boundary. With training and praise, your pet will quickly learn to avoid the established boundary.
Definition: A correction is a training term used to describe an action taken to discourage unwanted pet behavior. The Computer
Collar
®
Unit applies a correction when your pet crosses the boundary of an Invisible Fence
®
Brand electronic pet containment system.
Corrections are used in combination with rewards to alter unwanted pet behavior.
Your Invisible Fence
®
Brand pet containment system will only work when:
a. The transformer is connected to the transmitter and to a functional standard electric outlet, via an approved Lightning
Protection Device. All Invisible Fence
®
Brand pet containment systems must be grounded per the National Electric Code
to be protected against lightning (North American customers only).
b. The transmitter is ON, connected to the signal field wire, and producing a signal along the entire length of the wire.
c. The signal field wire is intact, continuous, and the transmitter’s Status Indicator light is blinking blue.
d. The Computer Collar
®
Unit is correctly fitted and worn by your pet. The Computer Collar
®
Unit must be adjusted so
that both of the correction posts touch your pet’s skin.
e. The Power Cap
®
Battery in the Computer Collar
®
Unit is good and correctly installed. See page 6 and 7 for proper Power
Cap
®
Battery operation.
About Thunder and Electrical Storms:
Even though your Invisible Fence
®
Brand pet containment system is equipped
with a Lightning Protection Device (North American customers only), it is still possible that it may be damaged during a
thunderstorm, or when an electrical storm is in the area. After a storm has ended, check the signal field width. See page 8 for
periodic maintenance checks.
