Step 9: Test the Receiver Collar
Northern climates can affect the range of the signal. In YardMax
®
mode, excessive snowfall (>1½ ft.) may place
your pet outside the signal field allowing your pet to leave the pet area. You may need to switch to Traditional
mode or increase the boundary width until the snow recedes.
Test the Receiver Collar—YardMax Mode
In YardMax mode (A), the warning zone starts at the boundary wire.
The higher the boundary width setting, the wider (and taller) the warning
zone. So your pet can go further beyond the boundary wire before being
corrected. We recommend setting the boundary width so that the correction
zone begins at least 10 ft. before any potential hazards like roadways.
Lower settings result in a smaller warning zone before correction, are more
battery-efficient and are less likely to couple to other metallic objects.
These steps are very similar to the ones we used in Step 8.
1. Set the fence transmitter to YardMax mode (A), but this time turn the
boundary width dial down to 1 (
9A
)
2. Make sure that the static correction on the receiver collar is set to
level 6.
3. Place the test light tool against the receiver collar contacts and hold
the contact points facing upwards.
4. Hold the receiver collar about 1 to 1 1 ⁄
2
ft. above your pet’s neck
height (
9B
).
Quick tip:
At the boundary wire, place a tape measure already set to
the 1–1½ ft. measurement above your pet’s neck (
9C
) . When you walk
over the boundary wire, you want the receiver collar to tone and flash.
Adjust the transmitter dial until this is accomplished.
5. Starting inside the pet area, slowly walk over to the boundary wire.
As you cross the wire, you will hear the warning tone and see the test
light flash as you continue to walk through the correction zone. If you
do not see the test light tool flash, increase the boundary width dial by
one setting and retest.
6. Continue adjusting and retesting until the test light flashes at the
boundary 1 ft. above the height where the receiver collar is
positioned on your pet’s neck.
7. Repeat this test at different places along the boundary wire to verify
that it is working everywhere.
Note:
To ensure that the signal is not coupled to any wires or other
metallic objects, we will do one more test inside the pet area.
8. Switch the fence transmitter setting to Traditional mode (B).
9. With the test light tool and receiver collar contact points facing
upward, walk throughout the pet area with the receiver collar as close
to the ground as possible (
9D
).
10. If the receiver collar does not activate in the pet area (where it should
not) then things are going great. You can switch back to YardMax
mode (A) on the fence transmitter.
11. If the receiver collar does activate within the pet area, it means that
you need to adjust the boundary wire where it crosses a cable or
electrical wire or approaches another metallic object. Refer back
to the instructions in Step 1. Other options include reducing the
static correction zone or switching to Traditional mode (B). After the
adjustment, retest the system.
12. Now that the boundary width is established, set the correction level
on the receiver collar to level 1 for training.
13. Now it is safe to bury your boundary wire!
