Transmitter Status Indicators
Status Indicator Light: This is the only light visible outside the transmitter. The chart below explains the various Status
Indicator Light conditions.
Audible Alarm: There is an audible alarm for certain alert conditions (see chart below). Pressing either the S1 or S2
button on the transmitter circuit board will silence the alarm. The alarm will re-activate on power-up if a failure condition
still exists. Access S1 or S2 by gently pushing down on the top of the cover and pull the cover towards you. Once released at
the top, the cover will come off the base.

Monthly and after a

• Verify the signal field wire is active throughout the
property, see “Monthly Signal Field Test” below.
Monthly Signal Field Test
You should always be aware of your system’s signal field.
Check the signal field from only one place on the signal field loop wire. Always check the
signal field from the same place. Take the Computer Collar
®
Unit off your pet to measure
the signal field.
1. Hold the Invisible Fence
®
Brand Computer Collar
®
Unit so it is parallel to the signal
field wire.
2. Hold the collar so it is about the same height and at the same angle as it will be when
the pet is wearing it.
3. Walk slowly toward the signal field wire. The Computer Collar
®
Unit will activate when
you reach the buried signal field wire.
Do NOT touch the correction posts at this
time!
4. Move back into the safe area, raise the Computer Collar
®
Unit to twice the height of
your pet and repeat Step 3. The Computer Collar
®
Unit will activate when you reach the
buried signal field wire.
If the Computer Collar
®
Unit does not sound a warning tone where the signal is supposed
to be, immediately call your Invisible Fence
®
Brand Dealer for service. Use a leash (lead)
or other means to contain your pet until all necessary service has been completed.
