The 12-volt, 200 mAmp, adapter isplugged into the wall transmitter and is connected to a 110-volt household outlet.10. The following precautions should always betaken:A.Never service or install a system or anyequipment during a thunder or electrical storm.B.Never install the wall transmitter where it could be exposed to the elements. Doing sowill void the manufacturer’s warranty.C. Monitor the wall transmitter periodically toensure that the unit is operating properly and is producing a signal along the loop wire.D. Always remove your dog’s collar receiver before making any adjustments to your system.E.Allow your dog to get used to the collarbefore you begin training. You want your dogto accept the collar as part of a routine, not to associate the collar with the stimulation.11.To prevent the elimination of an adequate safezone in your yard, any adjustments to the fieldwidth must be tested prior to using the systemwith your dog. Once the field width has been setand tested, turning the knob in a clockwise direc-tion will increase the stimulation area and mayeliminate the safe zone, thus causing stimulationsto be present throughout your entire yard. If youhave questions, please contact Innotek®at 1-800-826-5527, before using the system with your dog.12. Realize that because individual dogs haveunique temperaments, there is no way of knowinghow your dog will react to its introduction to thesystem. For the safety of your dog, initial trainingshould take place using a long leash to keep youin control of the situation. Also realize that anaggressive dog could turn against the handlerupon receiving the stimulation. Therefore, if youfeel your dog has an aggressive temperamentand/or it has a history of aggressive behavior, youshould consult a certified animal behav i o ri s tbefore using this product.1

When trained properly, your dog willquickly learn where its boundaries are.This system has a range of up to 5 acres for con-tainment.This package contains insulated bound-ary wire for enclosing a yard approximately one-half acre in size. Additional boundary kits can bepurchased from Innotek by calling 1-800-826-5527. The system is also capable of containingmultiple dogs simultaneously. Although it is soldwith one collar receiver, additional collar receiverscan be purchased from Innotek.Naturally, you are eager to get started trainingyour dog. But please take a few minutes to readthis manual first. It contains important set-upinformation to help your training proceed as suc-cessfully as possible.Proper preparation andtraining will give your dog confidence for years.C O M P O N E N T S• One water-resistant collar receiver with nylonstrap and quick-release buckle• One wall transmitter with installation hardware• One 12-volt, 200 milliamp adapter to power thecontainment system• One 6-volt alkaline battery for the collar receiver• One test light for testing the collar receiver• Fifty boundary flags• One spool (500 feet) of 20 ga.insulated bound-ary wire• Short and long probes (one set each)• Black plastic probes for first containment lesson•Two waterproof splices• One probe wrench• Owner’s manual• Instructional videoSETTING UP THE COLLAR RECEIVERWhen you first set up the collar receiver, you willneed to insert the supplied 6-volt alkaline batteryin the battery compartment of the collar.

B. Wire Terminals: These easy-to-use, push-release wire terminals let you instantly connect ordisconnect the boundary wire leads. W i r e sshould be stripped about a half inch before con-necting to the wall transmitter.C. Power: The wall transmitter is powered by a12-volt, 200 milliAmp adapter that plugs into astandard 110-volt household outlet and connectsto the power connector port on the side of the walltransmitter.D. Field Width Adjustment Knob: This knobcontrols the width of the signal field, the distancefrom the boundary wire to the place where thecollar receiver first activates. Turning the knobclockwise increases the field width; turning itcounterclockwise decreases it. Turning the knobcompletely counterclockwise turns off the walltransmitter power.Important: Whenever a change is made usingthe adjustment knob, the field width must be test-ed and verified before using the system to containyour dog. R e fer to Containment Opera t i o n ,Section 2.F.Testing the System.E.Indicator Light: The indicator light above theField Width Adjustment Knob tells the followinginformation.1. Containment Mode = Solid Red Light: Asolid red light on the wall transmitter means thetransmitter is properly powered, both wires areconnected, and the wire forms an unbroken,continuous loop. NOTE: The wall transmitterlight only indicates continuity.If you have aloose splice or nicked wire, the red light or aflickering light may still show, but you may noticereduced or no field width. If this situation or awire break should occur, refer to ContainmentOperation, Section 6.A.Troubleshooting.2. System Malfunction = No Light: No lighttells you one or more of the following: One orboth wires are not properly connected; bothwires are connected but the wire is broken ornicked at some location in your installation; thewall transmitter is off; the power has been dis-connected; or the wall transmitter has malfunc-t i o n e d . R e fer to Containment Opera t i o n ,Section 6.Troubleshooting.1.Place the collar receiver on a flat surfacewith the battery cap facing up.2.Using a coin or a screwdriver, turn the bat-tery cap counterclockwise to loosen andremove it.3.Insert the 6-volt alkaline battery into the bat-tery compartment with the positive (+) endclosest to the battery cap.4.Replace the battery cap by turning it clock-wise until it is firmly seated.C O N TAINMENT OPERAT I O NSECTION 1.F E ATURES OF THE WALL T R A N S M I T T E RThe wall transmitter is your system’s control cen-ter and works with the collar receiver and bound-ary wire to keep your dog safely contained withinan area you select. The wall transmitter containsthe following features:A.Lightning / Surge Protection: This helps pre-vent damage to the wall transmitter if a powersurge occurs or if lightning hits in the vicinity ofyour home. However, a close lightning strike maydamage the unit. Therefore, Innotek recom-mends that you unplug the transmitter and dis-connect the wires during storms. A lifetime-war-ranted lightning protection module can be pur-chased to protect the wall transmitter from bothAC power surges and containment wire surgesthat occur during a close lightning strike. ContactInnotek for more information.Indicator lightPower portField widthWire terminals3
F. Yard Size Jumper: The yard size “jumper”allows you to customize the wall transmitter foryour installation. The wall transmitter comes fromthe factory with the jumper set for a small yardthat utilizes less than 1,000 feet of boundary wire.It can be changed to accommodate a large yardthat has more than 1,000 feet of boundary wire inthe installation. One 500-foot spool of boundarywire is included with your system.To access the Yard Size Jumper, turn the FieldWidth Adjustment Knob to the “Off” position.Remove the four cover screws, the Field WidthAdjustment Knob, and the front cover from thewall transmitter. The Yard Size Jumper is locatedon the right side of the circuit board. When thejumper covers the two pins next to SMALL, thewall transmitter is set for a small yard; when thejumper covers the two pins next to LARGE, thewall transmitter is set for a large yard. THEJUMPER MUST BE IN PLACE FOR THE CON-TAINMENT SYSTEM TO FUNCTION.When the yard size jumper is appropri a t e l yplaced for your installation, replace the wall trans-mitter cover, secure it with the four cover screws,and install the Field Width Adjustment Knob withthe pointer in the “Off” position.G. Dual Frequency Jumper: The dual frequen-cy jumper located inside the wall transmitter islabeled DUAL FREQ and 8.192 KHz. It shouldalways be set for 8.192 KHz. Do not move thisjumper unless instructed to do so by an Innotekrepresentative.H. Stimulation: The stimulation delivered in thecontainment system is preset. There are threespecial features that increase the effectivenessfor containing your dog.1. Pre-Stimulation Warning Tone: When thedog reaches the edge of the signal field in theyard, it will hear a pre-stimulation warning tonethat lasts about two seconds.If the dog does notreturn to the “safe”part of the yard, it will receivea continuous stimulation until it does re-enter the“safe”part of the yard.2. Run-Through Prevention: The receiverautomatically increases the stimulation when thedog continues more than 1/3 of the way throughthe signal field. For example, if the signal isdetected 12 feet from the wire and your dogenters the signal field, this feature is activatedwhen the dog is eight feet from the wire. At thispoint, the dog automatically receives the Highlevel of stimulation. The feature acts as an over-ride to the pre-stimulation warning tone so thedog cannot “run through” the system withoutactivating a strong stimulation. As the dogretreats into the yard, the stimulation will reduceto the preset stimulation level and then turn offas the dog returns to the safe part of the yard.3.Over-Stimulation Prevention: In the unlike-ly event that your dog becomes “trapped” in thesignal field, this feature limits stimulation dura-tion to 10 seconds. The system shuts off for 10seconds before resuming stimulation for another10 seconds. This pattern will repeat for a maxi-mum of three cycles, a duration of 60-seconds.Removing the receiver from the containmentfield will reset the unit and allow normal opera-tion.SECTION 2.I N S TALLING THE CONTA I N M E N TS Y S T E MA. Creating the LayoutWhen selecting a layout for your containment sys-tem, keep it simple; complex installations aremore difficult for dogs to learn. Here are somekey points to remember:• Consider all the obstacles - gardens, play areas,driveways, sidewalks, pools, porches, and watercrossings.• Utility companies must be contacted to mark theburied utility lines.4
•To avoid future wire breaks caused by landscap-ing efforts, the lawn should never be aerated inthe vicinity of the containment wire.• For your dog's safety, it is recommended to keepthe containment wire at least ten feet from thestreet.• Keep in mind that you will want at least an 8- to12-foot containment field (8 to 12 feet on eachside of the wire).• It is possible to cancel the containment signal ina portion of the containment loop by twisting thewires 2 to 3 inches apart. This allows the dog tocross the twisted containment wire in safe areasof the yard, as illustrated below, without causingyour dog’s collar receiver to deliver stimulation.Described below are several popular containmentinstallations. You may find these helpful in plan-ning the layout that will best meet your needs.The perimeter loop is the most common installa-tion. The wire is placed just inside the propertyline and usually forms a square or rectangle.The hourglass design allows your dog to be con-tained in either the front or back yard. This layoutis similar to the perimeter loop, except the wire isrun close to the house on two sides. When posi-tioning the wire parallel to itself as it goes towardthe side of the house from the perimeter, keep ita distance equal to the field width plus three feetfrom itself. To prevent your dog from playing in theside yard, keep the wire a distance equal to thefield width less one foot from the house.The back yard loop encloses the back yard anduses the back portion of the house as part of thebarrier. After laying wire on the three sides of theback yard, bring the wire a distance of the fieldwidth less one foot from the back corner of thehouse to prevent your dog from playing in the sideyard. When running the containment wire parallelto the side and around the front of the house,keep the wire a distance from the house equal tothe field width plus three feet to prevent sendings t i mulation through the walls of the house.Continue placing wire at this distance from thehome until it reaches the entry hole leading to thewall transmitter.Encircling the house containsyour pet if he bolts out of the front entrance or theg a rage door. These areas are usually notflagged.A double loop installation will provide a barrier inthe back yard without running wire into the frontyard. Beginning at the wall transmitter, lay thecontainment wire to the nearest perimeter andproceed around the back yard until you are at thePerimeter LoopHourglass DesignBackyard Loop5splicecontainment signalcancelled in this areasplicesplice
opposite side of the house.When at a distancefrom the corner of the house equal to the con-tainment field width less one foot, do a hairpinturn and continue positioning the wire a distanceof the field width plus three feet away from itself.Proceed around the back yard until you return tothe opening leading to the wall transmitter. Thisdesign will keep the back entrances to the housefree from stimulation.Your containment installation can be customizedto protect areas such as gardens, pools, and spe-cific landscaping. To accomplish this, encircle theprotected area with containment wire. Twist alength of boundary wire equal to the distancebetween the protected area and the containmentperimeter. Use waterproof splices to connect thetwisted wire to the containment wire at theperimeter and at the protected area. The con-tainment signal is cancelled where the twistedwire is located thus allowing your dog to runaround the garden or pool without receiving stim-ulation. The containment signal around the pro-tected area will keep your dog out just as theperimeter containment wire keeps him in.Once you are satisfied with the layout of your con-tainment system, it is time to choose a properlocation for the wall transmitter.B.Installing the Wall Transmitter1 . Selecting a Location for the Wa l lTransmitter - Select a location for the wall trans-mitter that is within five feet of a standard,grounded 110-volt household outlet and that willprovide easy access to an exterior wall wherethe containment wire can penetrate. If possible,avoid plugging the unit into an outlet that is pro-tected by a ground fault current interru p t e r(GFCI). The GFCI will not interfere with the nor-mal operation of your system, but in rare caseslightning strikes may cause a GFCI outlet to trip(disconnect power), and you would need to resetthe GFCI to restore household power to the sys-tem. Also check the location where you want tobring the outside wires through the wall and intothe wall transmitter to avoid electrical or tele-phone wires, television cables, or water pipes.Even after checking, there may be unknownwires or pipes inside the wall. Therefore, con-sider going through a windowsill or doorframewhenever possible.Mark the desired locationwith a pencil.The transmitter may be mounted on a hollowwall or directly to a wall stud using the providedmounting hardware.The wall transmitter willwithstand freezing temperatures, but it is notwaterproof. Therefore, it is best to locate thetransmitter in a dry, enclosed area where thetemperature range will be between 32OF and110OF (0OC to 45OC). Preferable locations arethe garage, laundry room, office, or finishedbasements. For ease in accessing the walltransmitter, mount the transmitter at least fourfeet from the floor.2.Installing the Wall Transmitter - After select-ing a location for the wall transmitter, use a pen-cil to transfer the screw hole locations on theside of the wall transmitter onto the wall. Makesure there are no electrical wires or otherobjects directly behind the mounting-hole loca-tions that may be damaged when the mountingscrews are installed.For hollow wall installations, drill 1/4-inch diame-ter holes at the marked locations and tap in the6splices splicessplicesDouble Loopsplice6 ft.
hollow wall fasteners with a hammer. For instal-lation of mounting screws directly into a wallstud, drill 3/32-inch diameter pilot holes at themarked locations. Position the wall transmitterwith the screw holes over the pilot holes andsecure with the supplied screws.At the pre-determined location where the contain-ment wires will enter the home, drill a 1/4-inch holefrom the inside through the wall or corner of awindowsill or door frame.A slight downwardangle will help the wire to curve downward out-side and keep water out.A masonry bit can be used to drill through cin-derblock or through the joint crack on brick orstone walls. A regular 1/4-inch drill bit can beused if the house is of wooden construction withvinyl or aluminum siding. In these cases, youmay want to drill from the outside for exterioraesthetics.C. Planning the Placement of the BoundaryWireWith the wall transmitter installed and the holedrilled for the wires, begin positioning the bound-ary wire according to your layout. Listed beloware some helpful instructions and tips.1. Amount of Wire - Your system includes 500feet of insulated 20-gauge, solid copper corewire. For yards requiring more wire, boundarykits are available from Innotek (1-800-826-5527). It is important that the same gauge wirebe used throughout the installation. Here aresome examples of wire coverage.Acres Linear Feet Needed1 8502 12003 15004 17005 1900 The above figures assume a rectangular layoutand actual footage may vary.2. Placement of the Wire - For the system towork properly, the wire must make one continu-ous loop. The signal is transmitted from one ter-minal of the transmitter, through the wire, andback to the other terminal. When placing thewire, keep in mind that you will want at least an8- to 12-foot containment field (8 to 12 feet oneach side of the wire). Avoid making passage-ways too narrow or your dog may be hesitant touse them (i.e. along the sides of a house).3.Twisted Wire - Prepare and place twisted wirefrom the transmitter to the exterior loop wire.The twisted wire cancels the signal and allowsyour dog to cross this area. It can also be usedto connect the containment system to internalareas that should be protected, like gardens,pools, and special landscaping.To twist the wire, cut two equal lengths and holdthem side by side. Put one end of both wires ina power drill. With a helper holding the otherends of the wires, turn the drill on and spin thewires until the twists are 2 to 3 inches apart. Thetighter the twisting of the wire, the better the sig-nal cancellation. The wire can also be twistedmanually.4.Rounding Corners- Use gradual turns at thecorners with a minimum of 2.5-foot radius. Thiswill produce a more consistent containment fieldand avoid confusing your dog in these areas.5.Crossing Driveways, Sidewalks,and WaterFeatures -When crossing an asphalt driveway,make a 1/2-inch deep cut across the drivewayusing a circular saw and masonry blade. Placethe wire in the crack and seal with asphaltsealant. On driveways and sidewalks, if anexpansion joint is available, simply place thewire in the joint and seal with an outdoor caulk.When crossing gravel, bury the wire at least 3inches deep.Use a piece of garden hose orplastic PVC piping to protect the wire. In water,anchor the wire with large rocks.Protect thewire with a piece of garden hose or plastic PVCpiping. The wire does not have to be buried, butto minimize the potential for wire damage, it isadvisable to bury it at least one inch under-ground.D.Placing the BoundaryWire1. Listed below are important tips about place-ment and burial of the boundary wire:7
• Do NOT bury the loop within 10 feet parallel toelectrical, telephone, cable TV, or other buriedwire in the yard.• Do NOT bury one section of wire within 10 feetof another section or the signal may cancel.• Do NOT bury your wire within 10 feet of an e i g h b o r ing containment system’s boundarywire.2. Position the Wire in the Yard -The aboverecommendations may cause you to modifyyour layout, but it will be time well spent. Whenyour layout is finalized, place the wire aroundyour property according to your diagram. Thewire loop should begin and end at a perimeterlocation closest to the location of the transmitter.This will minimize the amount of twisted wireneeded to connect the boundary wire to thetransmitter.DO NOT BURYTHE WIRE UNTIL YOU HAVETESTED THE SYSTEM AND ARE SURE IT ISWORKING PROPERLY. TAKE CARE NOT TONICK OR SCRAPE THE WIRE INSULATIONDURING THE INSTALLATION. AN INTERMIT-TENT SIGNAL OR NO SIGNAL MAY OCCUR.E.Making the Final ConnectionsAfter the wall transmitter has been installed in aprotected area and the boundary wire is in place,the final connections must be made.1. Bringing the Outside Wire to the WallTransmitter - From the outside, push the twist-ed pair of wires through the hole in the exteriorwall. A small piece of electrical tape wrappedaround the end of the wire will keep it fromuntwisting in the wall. Push a sufficient length ofwire through the wall to reach the wall transmit-ter. Strip about 1/2 inch of insulation from eachwire and insert them into the wire terminals onthe wall transmitter by depressing the tabs onthe terminals and inserting one wire in each ter-minal. Position the wire along the wall asdesired and push excess wire back out throughthe hole in the wall.2. Splicing to the Boundary Wire - Pull thetwisted pair wire to the perimeter location of theboundary wire. Make sure that the wire length isadequate to route wire along the outside walland bury before cutting. Splice the ends of thetwisted wire to the ends of the boundary with thesupplied waterproof splices.WARNING: Use only the waterproof splices(approved for direct burial) supplied with thissystem. If additional splices are required, theymay be purchased from Innotek. Using non-waterproof electrical tape, solder, or twisted wirenuts will cause an intermittent signal or disablethe system. The waterproof splices included inyour containment system are designed to pro-vide a sealed connection between the wires.Waterproof Splices–Your containment systemincludes one of two different styles of waterproofsplices that are designed to provide a sealedconnection between the wires.Refer to the fol-lowing illustrations to identify the splices includ-ed with your system.Gel-Filled Capsule Splice–To use the gel-filledcapsule splice, strip 5/8 inch of insulation fromthe ends of the wires you are joining. With theends of the wires even and together, place thewire nut over the wire ends and turn the wire nutclockwise until it is securely fastened. Snapopen the hinged lid of the gel-filled capsule andinsert the wire nut as deeply as possible into thewaterproof gel. Snap the lid shut, making surethe wires exit the splice on either side.Tie aknot in the wires as shown in the diagram toprevent them from pulling out of the gel-filledcapsule when the wire is buried.Black Cap Splice–To use the black cap splice,a single boundary wire is placed into one of thethree holes of the spliced.The insulation on theboundary wire should not be stripped before8Gel-filled capsule splice Black cap spliceGel filledcapsuleWireWire nutWire
placing wire into the holes.The other single boundarywire is placed into one ofthe other holes. T h a tleaves one extra hole thatis not used.A pair of pliersshould be used to press down on the top blackpart of the splice.3.Plugging in the Power Adapter - Make surethe Field Width Adjustment Knob is in the OFFposition. Plug the power adapter into a nearby110-volt household outlet and the other end intothe power port on the right side of the wall trans-mitter.4. Checking Out the Installation - Make sureyour dog is not wearing the collar and no one istouching the collar probes. Turn the Field WidthAdjustment Knob clockwise until a click is heard.This turns the system on. The LED on the walltransmitter should be solid red to indicate theboundary loop is properly connected. If the redlight does not illuminate, refer to ContainmentOperation, Section 6.Troubleshooting.F.Testing the SystemWith the boundary wire in place and properly con-nected and the collar receiver battery installed, itis time to set the containment field and test thesystem. THE COLLAR RECEIVER SHOULDNOT BE ON YOUR DOG WHEN THE SYSTEMIS TESTED.1. Setting the Yard Size- If you are using atotal boundary wire length of 1,000 feet or less,set the Yard Size Jumper to SMALL. Otherwise,set it to large.Refer to Section 1.F for setting thejumper.2. Adjusting the Containment Field - Thewidth of the containment field is adjusted usingthe transmitter’s Field Width Adjustment Knob.Start with a low setting. Move the knob to the 9o’clock position and test the field width of thesystem. For the safety of your dog,the fieldwidth of the system must be tested whenev-er an adjustment is made to the containmentfield. Please follow the instructions below.3. Testing the Field Width of the System -Select a section of straight boundary wire that isat least 50 feet long and perform the contain-ment field test at the center of the selected sec-tion. To test the containment field, attach thetest light to the probes and slowly walk the col-lar receiver toward the boundary wire. The col-lar receiver should be held at the height of yourdog’s neck with the probes pointed upward.Listen for the warning sound and watch for thetest light to illuminate.The wider the contain-ment field, the less chance the dog can runthrough the field.The containment field should extend at least 8to 12 feet on each side of the wire. This helpsmake the Run-Through Prevention more effec-tive. To increase the field width, turn the FieldWidth Adjustment Knob clockwise and recheckthe distance the signal is broadcasting from thew i r e. To decrease, turn counterclock w i s e.Repeat this procedure until you are satisfiedwith the location of the stimulation throughoutthe installation.Note: When testing the field width, the collarreceiver may demonstrate the over-stimulationp r evention safety feature described inContainment Operation, Section 1.H.3. Over-Stimulation Prevention.4. Verifying the Safe Part of the Yard - Oncethe field width is set, slowly walk the collarreceiver around the entire boundary perimetermaintaining a distance from the wire that is atleast three feet farther than the field width set-ting selected in the previous step. Verify the col-lar receiver does not activate. Inconsistenciesin the field width may occur where there areburied electrical, telephone, cable TV or otherwires or metallic objects in the yard. The con-tainment signal from the boundary wire cancouple onto the buried wires and extend the sig-nal into the safe part of the yard. Repositioningthe boundary wire in these areas can minimizethe unwanted signal coupling; however, youmay not be able to completely eliminate theeffect. The unwanted signal coupling can be9
minimized by orienting the boundary wire sothat it is perpendicular to the buried wire forapproximately ten feet on each side of theburied wire (see graphic below).5.Burying the BoundaryWire -You may needthe fo l l owing tools for efficient installation:S t raight-edged spade, pliers, and wirecutter/stripper. If you plan to run the wire acrossconcrete, you will also need a caulk gun, sili-cone caulking, and a circular saw with a mason-ry blade.a. Ensure the system is turned OFF at thewall transmitter.b. Burying the wire - To bury the wire, digabout 3 to 4 inches deep where the wire firstenters the ground near the transmitter andcontinue around the path of the loop wire. A30Oto 45Oangle cut made with a flat bladespade will be the easiest to close and heal.Allow for slack in the wire throughout theboundary wire loop to compensate for expan-sion and contraction due to tempera t u r echanges.When covering a large area, you may wish touse a lawn edger or trenching machine to cutinto the ground. However, we recommendthat the wire be placed in the trench by hand.A commercial wire-placement machine maybreak the wire or damage the wire insulation.c. Checking the system field width and plac-ing the flags - Repeat Testing the System(Containment Operation, Section 2.F.3.) untilyou are satisfied with the field width setting.As you approach the boundary wire, place aflag at the perimeter where the receiver firstdetects the warning tone. This will add a visu-al cue to the audio warning tone and help thedog learn the boundary. Continue placing theflags at 6- to 8-foot intervals around the entirecontainment area using this technique.If the field adjustment knob position is altered,you must test the containment field for thedesired setting and reposition the flags asnecessary.d.Plugging the holes - With the twisted wire inplace near the wall transmitter, caulk and sealthe interior and exterior holes to prevent dam-age from moisture and insects.SECTION 3.USING THE CONTAINMENT SYSTEMA.Fitting the Collar to Your Dog1. Probes - Use short probes for shorthaireddogs. Use long probes for longhaired dogs.Finger tighten the probes, then turn one addi-tional revolution with the probe wrench. Do notover-tighten the probes.2. Collar Strap - Place the collar around thedog’s neck with the receiver box under the chin.Fit the strap as snugly as possible, withoutrestricting breathing. There should be enoughroom to fit only one finger between the strapand the dog’s skin at the back of its neck. Makesure both probes contact the dog’s skin.Remove the collar and trim any excess straplength, leaving 4 to 6 inches. Then seal the endwith a lighted match for 1-2 seconds. This willprevent fraying.B. Important Notes About the Collar1. Always use the rubber insulators betweenthe collar strap and probes to provide insulationin damp conditions.2. If needed, a small amount of hair removal orthinning will improve probe contact with theskin. Do NOT shave the dog’s neck.3. Check your dog's neck weekly for skin irrita-tion.4. This product is not recommended for dogsunder six months of age.5. Check the tightness of the probes regularlyand frequently to prevent loss of the receiverbox.Lost receivers are not covered under man-ufacturer warranty.10Boundary Wire10’10’90˚
6. To prevent accidental stimulation inside thehome, remove the collar from your dog's neckwhen it comes inside.7. Check the collar receiver once a week tomake sure the collar receiver battery has ade-quate power.8. Test the collar receiver in the containmentfield weekly to verify that the system is func-tioning properly. To test, hold the supplied testlight to the collar receiver probes. Holding thereceiver by the case, NOT by the probes, walkinto the containment field. With the receiverheld at the height of your dog with the probesfacing upward, verify the warning tone is pres-ent and the test light illuminates.SECTION 4.TIPS FOR CONTAINMENT TRAININGTo get the most out of your containment system,keep these tips in mind:A. The collar receiver must be properly fit toensure adequate contact between your dog’sskin and the receiver probes.Place the collarhigh and snug on your dog’s neck.B. Never leave the collar receiver on your dogfor longer than 12 hours a day. Leaving the col-lar on your dog for extended periods couldresult in irritation around the neck or at the sitewhere the probes make contact with the skin.C. Begin training when your dog has reachedfour to six months of age.D. Always make sure the collar is functioningproperly BEFORE putting it on your dog. Verifythe containment transmitter is operating proper-ly and the field width is appropriate. To test thecontainment field, refer to ContainmentOperation, Section 2.F.3. Testing the Field Widthof the System.E. Remove any metal collars or tags from thedog when it wears the electronic collar. Metalcollars and tags can cause intermittent opera-tion and/or prevent the dog from feeling thestimulation.F. Place the training flags at the perimeterwhere the warning tone is heard. This will adda visual cue to the audio warning tone and helpyour dog learn the boundary.G. Never call or pull a dog into the containmentfield.H. Keep training sessions brief (10 to 15 min-utes) and stop the session before your dog haslost interest. Take a break to rest or play.I. Do NOT become overly confident that yourdog has become conditioned sooner thanexpected. Complete all of the steps in theTraining Plan before allowing your dog to runfree.J. ALWAYS praise your dog for good behavior.SECTION 5.THE TRAINING PLANReview the video that is packaged with the sys-tem.It offers a visual step-by-step guide to train-ing your dog.The goal of containment training is:•To teach your dog to identify and retreat from theboundaries.•To make the training fair--so your dog will under-stand the consequences of leaving the yard.• To make the training fun--so your dog will enjoystaying and playing on your property.This training plan is divided into four part s :Training Equipment, The Schedule, Rules andRoutine, and Training Lessons.A.Training Equipment You'll need a training collar.Choose either a flat orslip collar. Use a flat collar on a mild mannereddog.A slip collar works best on a hard to handleor easily distracted dogs.You'll need a lead.This training plan recommendsthat you work with a 6-foot, 15-foot, or retractablelead.11
B.The Schedule The six dog-training lessons take place over thecourse of about 4 weeks. For total success it isnecessary to complete the entire course.Practice sessions are 10-15 minutes each, 2times per day.Short, fun sessions are more effec-tive. Anything longer will cause your dog to men-tally tire.Lesson 1: The Retreat Pattern - 6 Sessions.Lesson 2: The Stimulation - 1 Session.Lesson 3: Distractions - 7-8 Sessions.Lesson 4: Off Lead, Supervised - 1 Week Lesson 5: Off Lead, Unsupervised - 2 Weeks Lesson 6: Flag Removal - Every other day untilgone.Use the calendar only as a guideline. Your dog'sbehavior tells you when to move to the next les-son.C.Rules and Routine The rules and routine of the typical training ses-sion include putting the collar receiver and leadon your dog making sure the collar receiver ishigh on your dog's neck and snug with the probestouching the skin.Start every session with play and praise. Makesure the dog is comfortable--have fun! Laugh! andpraise him.Most importantly, review the previous day's les-son to see if your dog is learning on schedule. Donot proceed to the next step until your dog under-stands what is expected. Do boundary work atlocations all around the property. End the sessionwith relaxing play.Bring your dog indoors and remove both the train-ing collar and the collar receiver.If you're trainingmore than one dog, train each dog at separatetraining sessions.D.Training Lessons Lesson 1: The Retreat PatternBefore you start to train, make sure the collarreceiver is functioning and the battery has ade-quate power. Remove the standard probes andinstall the black plastic probes.The black plasticprobes ensure that your dog does not receive astimulation until he learns to retreat from theboundary.Put the collar receiver on your dog.Make sure thewall transmitter is turned on.Lesson 1- Day 1. The goal for Day 1 is to intro-duce your dog to the boundary and to help himunderstand he should retreat when he hears thewarning sound. Depending on the lead there areseveral ways to do this.Using a 6-foot lead, casually walk your dog to theboundary.When the dog reaches the containmentfield let go of the slack in your left hand, immedi-ately spin to your right, and instantly grasp thelead under your right hand and retreat.Your dogwill continue forward and then feel the tug. As heruns back towards you, praise him.Using a retractable or 15-foot lead, casually walkyour dog toward the boundary.Your dog may indi-cate he hears the warning sound by tilting hishead or twitching his ears.The instant the doghears the warning sound, give a tug on the leadand bring him back.On a retractable lead, press the brake. This willredirect the dog back into the safe area.Have funand praise him.On days two and three repeat the lesson of Day1.As the training sessions progress through thethree days of lesson one, you'll see that your dogwill begin to anticipate the signal and retreat with-out prompts.Day three is successful if your dog retreats withno prompt from you or he refuses to approach theboundaries. Remember to praise, praise, praiseproper behavior.Lesson 2: The StimulationA dog may be tempted to break the rules.To pre-vent this, he must understand that there are con-sequences for inappropriate behavior.When yourdog retreats from the boundaries on his own or12MTWT F S SWeek 1 Retreat DistractionsWeek 2 Off Lead SupervisedOff Lead UnsupervisedFlag Removal Every Other DayWeek 3
won’t go into flagged areas, he is ready to receivethe stimulation.Before you begin this lesson, remove the blackplastic probes and install the standard probes.Make sure the wall transmitter is turned ON andfunctioning properly.Use a 15-foot or a retractable lead.Have a familymember run through the containment field. Letyour dog follow.The distracter must not stop, lookback, or call the dog.After your dog receives thestimulation, pull him back to you and lavish himwith loud, happy pra i s e . Try it again. If heresponds correctly, praise him, then move toanother boundary area.Lesson 3: DistractionsIf your dog is avoiding the boundary, he is readyfor distractions.This is the most important butoften shortchanged part of the training. This les-son teaches your dog that he must resist tempta-tions. When practicing distractions, never call orpull your dog into the containment field.Most dogs have a hard time generalizing con-cepts so you can't assume that if your dog won'tchase a ball he won't chase a bicycle.You have togo through a list of distractions that will tempt yourdog the most.Dogs will learn specifics.If your doglikes to chase, distract with balls, bikes--anythingthat moves. If your dog is attracted by children,family members, other dogs--use them as temp-tations.Lesson 4: Off Lead, Supervised After several sessions of distractions, your dogshould be ready for off lead play.You must stay inthe yard for off lead training.In fact, it's wise to spend more quality time in theyard with your dog.The more your dog stays onthe property for the first month, the less confusedhe will be.If you wish to take your dog off the property,remove the collar receiver and take him off andback onto the property in the car.Lesson 5: Off Lead, Unsupervised When your dog resists distraction of any kind,both on and off lead, he can be left unattended inthe yard but observed from inside the home.Thisfreedom should be brief at first. You must fre-quently go out and check on your dog. Over thenext several weeks, unsupervised freedom canbe gradually increased.Before and after each unsupervised session, youmust continue the play and praise routine so thatyour dog understands that the yard is a happyplace to be.Lesson 6: Removing the Flags After 2 weeks of successful unsupervised con-tainment, you can begin removing the flags.Startby removing every other flag every other day untilall are gone.The leads, trainers, flags and the collar receiversignals are all training clues for your dog. Duringthe last three weeks of training --one by one--allbut the collar receiver will be removed.As the training clues are removed it is essentialthat you continue to use distractions to make sureyour dog retreats from the unmarked boundary.The stimulation teaches the consequences of theimproper response.Know your dog and whattempts him.Gradually extend the amount of unsu-pervised freedom, and finally remove the flagswhen you are confident that your dog is fullytrained.If you have any questions about your containmentsystem, or about training your dog, please reviewthe video included with this product.

Page 15A.System Test Procedure The system test procedure is used to determinethe probable cause of system problems that havenot been addressed elsewhere. You will need a 6-foot piece of boundary wire for use as a test loopwire. Strip 1/2 inch of insulation from both ends ofthe wire. To perform the System Test Procedure,please follow these steps:1. Remove the receiver collar from your dogprior to testing the system.2. Set the transmitter internal Yard Size Jumperto SMALL.3. Make a test loop using a piece of wire at least6 feet in length.15
4. Disconnect the existing boundary wire fromyour wall transmitter.5. Insert the two ends of the test loop wire intothe wall transmitter.6. Note the original position of the Field WidthAdjustment Knob and turn the Field W i d t hAdjustment Knob to a minimum setting (9o’clock).7. Place the test light on the collar receiver. Withthe collar strap in hand, back up to be outsidethe field and approach the test loop.Make amental note of the distance between you andthe wire when the collar activates.8. Turn the Field Width Adjustment Knob to amedium setting (10 o’clock).9. Back away from the wire and approach itagain. Determine the distance between you andthe wire when the collar activates. The distanceshould be greater on the 10 o'clock range set-ting than on the minimum setting.10. If more than one collar receiver is used onthe system, repeat the above test on each col-lar.11. Interpreting the Resultsa. If there is no light on the transmitter with thetest wire in place, the wall transmitter is mal-functioning.b. If the red light is solid on the wall transmit-ter, but the collar does not activate on the testloop wire, the collar receiver is not working.c. If the red light is solid on the wall transmit-ter and the collar receiver is activating at dif-ferent distances on the test loop wire, theproblem is in the yard wire.B.Transmitter Loop Test ProcedureThe Transmitter Loop Test Procedure should beperformed if the transmitter indicator light is notfunctioning properly.You will need a short 6-footpiece of boundary wire with 1/2-inch of the insu-lation stripped from both ends. Verify the ACadapter is plugged into the transmitter and into afunctioning AC outlet, the transmitter Field WidthAdjustment Knob is not in the OFF position, andall boundary wire connections at the transmitterare properly connected.If the indicator light is stilloff, continue with the following steps.1. Remove the existing twisted wire pair from thetransmitter connector by pushing red and blackrelease levers on the connector and remove thetwo wires from the transmitter.2. Insert the ends of the 6-foot wire into the con-nector on the transmitter and recheck the trans-mitter indicator light.a. If the indicator light is on, the problem is inthe boundary wire.check for visible damage tothe wire at the entry into the house.If none isobserved, perform the Wire Break Location TestProcedure to find and correct the wire break.b. If the indicator light is still off, the malfunctionis in the transmitter or the AC adapter. ContactInnotek at 1-800-826-5527 for assistance.C.Wire Break Location Test ProcedureTo locate wire breaks in the loop installation, usea wire break location device called an RF Choke,which is available at Radio Shack (Catalog #273-102;10 mH, 2 Amp). You will also need a portableAM radio.Once you have these items, followthese steps:1. Disconnect the transmitter power by unplug-ging the adapter from the outlet.2. Disconnect the boundary wires from the walltransmitter.3. Bend the leads of the RF Choke into theshape in the illustration.4. Gently wrap the RF Choke leads around theboundary wire (stripped) ends (one to eachside).161/4”
175. Plug the boundary wire and RF Choke leadsinto the wire terminals on the wall transmitter.6. Plug the adapter into the outlet.7. Set a portable AM radio to AM-60 or AM-600.8. Set the Field Width Adjustment Knob highenough to obtain a signal on the portable radiowhen holding the radio over the containmentboundary wire.9. The signal should be absent on the twistedwire portions because twisting cancels the sig-nal. When you reach a single wire area of yourboundary, listen for pulsating static on the radio.10. Hold the radio 1 to 2 feet off the ground andswing the radio over the wire as you walk alongthe boundary.11. If the static stops, weakens, or changespitch, mark the spot with a flag or stick. Nosound indicates a complete break in the wire. Ifthe signal fades or changes in pitch, look for anick in the insulation.Note: Do not confuse straying from the bound-ary wire path for a wire break. Make sure youfollow the known location of your boundary wire.12. Continue around the remaining boundaryand mark each signal change with a flag orstick.13. After completing the entire boundary, returnto the marked spots. Examine the wire for 3 to4 feet in each direction.14. Replace the wire using the same gauge wireused in the original installation and use water-proof splices to make the connection.Contact Innotek if additional wire and waterproofsplices are needed.SECTION 7.GENERAL MAINTENANCE TIPSYour system requires very little maintenance. Thecollar receiver is water resistant and should notbe immersed in water. To remove dirt, simplywipe with soap and water.
