Troubleshooting

The Receiver Collar is not beeping 

when setting up the Boundary Zone.

• The tone may be difficult to hear in a noisy environment. 

• Use Test Light as explained in the “Test Light Instructions” 

section, and use it to determine the location of Boundary Zone.

• Check that the Transmitter is set up according to directions 

and install a new battery while standing within 5-10 feet of the 

Transmitter. 

• Re-Synchronize the System. (Page 20)

The Receiver Collar is not beeping or 

administering a Static Correction.

• Check that the Transmitter is plugged into a working 120-volt 

outlet, turned on, the Power Light is on, and the Transmitter 

controls are set at your desired settings. 

• Check Receiver battery to make sure it is installed properly. 

• When replacing the battery, do so while standing within 5-10 feet 

of the Transmitter.

• Re-Synchronize the System. (Page 20)

The Receiver Collar is beeping 

everywhere.

• Check that the Transmitter is plugged into a working standard 

120-volt outlet, turned on, the Power Light is on, and the 

Transmitter controls are set at your desired settings. 

• Bring Receiver Collar while standing within 5-10 feet of the 

Transmitter to reset.

• Re-Synchronize the System. (Page 20)

The Receiver Collar is beeping inside 

the house.

• It is recommended to remove the Receiver Collar from your pet 

when indoors to avoid activation of the Receiver Collar.

• Make sure the Transmitter is on and set up according to the 

directions. 

• Ensure the entire house is within the Pet Area. The Transmitter 

may need to be moved to adjust the Pet Area to include the 

entire house. 

• If relocating the Transmitter, remove the Receiver Collar from your 

pet before turning the Transmitter off.

My pet is receiving a Static 

Correction in his metal crate.

• The Receiver Collar activates when it loses the Transmitter signal.  

The metal crate may block the Transmitter signal which causes the 

Receiver Collar to activate.

• Remove the Receiver Collar from your pet when placing him in his 

metal crate.

The Boundary Zone seems to 

fluctuate.

• This is normal for the electro magnetic field of the Wireless System. 

The field may be affected by surrounding “electronic noise,” which 

can cause it to fluctuate up to 5%. 

• Where the Receiver Collar activates is influenced by the speed and 

orientation of the Receiver Collar as your pet enters the Boundary 

Zone.

The Receiver Collar activates in the 

middle of the yard.

• The Receiver Collar activates when it loses the Transmitter signal. 

This sometimes occurs if a large metal object is between the 

Receiver Collar and Transmitter, if the orientation of the Receiver 

Collar changes near the Boundary Zone, or if the surrounding 

“electronic noise” interferes with the signal. If this continues to 

occur, consider relocating the Transmitter and resetting the Pet 

Area.

• Re-Synchronize the System. (Page 20)
