PWF-100
• Your system’s performance is enhanced
providing the SmartStation
™
a clear “line
of sight” such as a table in front of a
window. Keep your SmartStation
™
off the
fl oor and elevated on a table or shelf.
• You can place the SmartStation
™
on a
home’s second story.
• All radio signals are blocked or
refl ected by metal objects and can
cause signifi cant disruption to your
system’s reception! Keep clear of metal
furniture, duct work, metal studs or
buildings.
Hilly Terrain and your Wire-Free system
Unlike other wireless systems, the Wire-
Free radio frequency signal is not affected
by most terrain. The Wire-Free fence’s
effective range will be reduced over hilly
terrain only if the indoor SmartStation
™
base station loses direct line of sight (such
as over a steep hill) with the dog’s collar.
Wire-Free is unique in that the indoor
SmartStation
™
will actually benefi t from
a higher location in the house, such as a
second story, to improve its “line of sight”
with the PetLink
™
collar when dealing with
diffi cult terrain issues or other obstacles.
Setting the Boundary
Understanding the system SLEEP MODE
In order to conserve the maximum amount
of battery power, the PetLink collar will
enter SLEEP MODE when the collar is not
in motion, such as when your dog is sleep-
ing or the collar is simply off the dog sitting
on a table. You can determine the collar is
asleep by looking at the “L” shaped icon
in the SmartStation
™
screen. When your
pet moves the L icon will rotate clockwise.
When the collar is at rest the icon will
remain still.
Due to the
SLEEP MODE,
it is important
to “jiggle” the
PetLink
™
collar
during setup
functions for the
SmartStation
and PetLink
™
col-
lar to maintain constant contact between
the SmartStation
™
and the PetLink
™
collar.
After carefully selecting a location for
the system SmartStation
™
, you can now
defi ne the outside boundary area. Keep in
mind, that although the Wire-Free system
can cover an area as large as 2 ½ acres,
your property lines will dictate how large
of a circular area you can cover with your
fencing system.
• Push the center SELECT button on the
indoor SmartStation
™
.
• The SmartStation
™
screen will read-
MENU: Boundary
• Press and release the RIGHT arrow (>)
• Hold the PetLink
™
collar by the nylon
strap approximately knee high.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure to jiggle the
collar as it is walked around the yard to
ensure that the SmartStation
™
continues
to receive continuous data from the collar.
