7. To prevent the receiver collar from going into Over Correction Protection mode, walk back into the pet area until the toning stops. If the
receiver collar does not tone at the desired range, adjust the boundary width control knob to obtain the desired range. Turning the boundary
width control knob clockwise increases the boundary width while turning it counterclockwise decreases it (
8E
). Repeat this activity as
needed until the receiver collar tones between 6 to 10 ft. from the boundary wire. If using a double loop layout, you may need to increase
the separation of the boundary wire and/or increase the size of the boundary width to achieve the desired range.
8. Test the boundary width in a number of different locations around the pet area until you are satisfied that the system is functioning properly.
9. Next, walk all around the pet area (
8F
) to ensure there are no areas where the receiver collar may activate from signals coupled onto
buried wires or cables. Test the collar in and around the inside of the house as well. As mentioned, cable and wires from cable TV, electrical
or telephone lines may conduct pet fencing signals inside and outside the house that can activate the dog’s collar accidentally. While rare,
if this occurs, your boundary wire is probably too close to these outside lines and should be moved or modified as shown in figure 1A.
10. To test the Run Through Prevention feature, walk towards the boundary wire. The receiver collar should tone and the test light should flash
brighter as you enter the run through area (
8G
). If you are satisfied that your system is functioning properly, you are ready to start burying
the boundary wire. If the receiver collar did not tone or the test light did not flash, see the troubleshooting section.
