How the System Works
A radio signal travels from the Fence Transmitter through a buried wire, marking the boundaries you wish to set for your
dog. Your dog wears a Receiver Collar that detects the signal at the boundary. As your dog approaches the boundary, the
receiver issues a warning tone. If he proceeds further, he receives a safe but startling Static Correction. While harmless, the
correction will persuade him to stay in the containment area you’ve established. Boundary fl ags are a temporary visual aid
for your pet; remove them after training. This PetSafe
®
In-Ground Fence
has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective
for pets over 8 pounds.
Key Definitions
Fence Transmitter: Transmits the radio signal through the Boundary Wire.
Pet Area: Area within the Warning Zone where your pet can roam freely.
Warning Zone: Outer edge of the Pet Area where your pet’s Receiver Collar begins to beep, warning him not to go into the
Static Correction Zone.
Static Correction Zone: Zone beyond the Warning Zone where your pet’s Receiver Collar will emit a Static Correction,
signaling him to return to the Pet Area.
Boundary Width: Combination of the Warning Zone and the Static Correction Zone.
Receiver Collar: Receives the radio signal from the Boundary Wire.
Contact Points: Delivers the safe Static Correction when your pet moves into the Static Correction Zone.
Power Jack: Where the Power Adapter plugs into the Fence Transmitter. The Fence Transmitter is powered by a standard
120-volt outlet.
Boundary Control Switch: Switch located on the Fence Transmitter to adjust according to the length of Boundary Wire used.
Boundary Wire Terminals: Where the Boundary Wires connect to the Fence Transmitter in order to complete a
continuous loop.
Loop Indicator Light: Indicates that the Boundary Wire makes a complete loop, enabling the signal to be transmitted.
Boundary Width Control: Adjusts the width of the Warning and Static Correction Zones. Note: Adjusting the knob does not
change the level of Static Correction on the Receiver Collar.
