3. Hold the Receiver Collar at the
approximate height of your pet’s neck
(

). Start outside of the range and walk
slowly toward the Barrier Transmitter. As
you reach the Barrier Area, the Receiver
Collar emits a series of high-pitched
tones. For each tone you hear, you
should notice the Test Light flashing
which indicates that a Progressive Static
Correction is being delivered. The
Receiver Collar’s tone is easily heard by
pets but may be at a volume level difficult
for some humans to hear.
4. Check the range of the Barrier Area from
multiple angles to ensure you are getting
the desired coverage.

Note: Should you find that you are not getting the desired range at the maximum setting,
move the Barrier Transmitter a foot, or change from its standing-on-end position to laying
flat. Metal objects can alter the magnetic field and change the transmitting signal range.
The effect on the range depends on the size and shape of the objects. Signal range can be
reduced if the Barrier Transmitter is placed on a concrete floor, due to steel reinforcement
in the concrete. For best range results, place the Barrier Transmitter on a nonconductive
surface, i.e., wood floor or table. Placing the Barrier Transmitter beneath sofas and beds
can reduce the range due to the metal springs altering the magnetic field.
