The Technology Behind the System
The Technology Behind the System
The Custom-Shape Wireless Dog Fence from Havahart® is driven by a nanoLOC TRX 2.4 GHz transceiver that has
been enhanced with complex algorithms, strategic distortion filtering and modular signal amplification to deliver
advanced time-of-flight-ranging technology and precision event-stamp mapping. These enhancements comprise
the core of the patented elements that provide an unparalleled level of technical sophistication in the wireless dog
fencing industry. This first-of-its-kind, cutting-edge Custom-Shape Wireless Dog Fence gives you the advantage of
allowing your dog to go to the edge of your property while keeping him safe and out of designated areas.
The revolutionary technology behind the Custom-Shape Wireless Dog Fence allows you to create a wireless fence
boundary and Exclusion Zones. The wireless fence boundary is a wireless perimeter that can be shaped to the exact
configuration of your yard. It is used to enclose your property’s Roaming Area where your dog can roam and play. By
contrast, an Exclusion Zone is a specific area such as a flower bed, children’s play area, pool, or patio where you want
to restrict your dog’s access. One blue and 74 white boundary flags are used to mark the wireless fence boundary
and any Exclusion Zones throughout your property. The flags are also used during training to indicate the location of
the wireless fence for your dog. Extra flags can be purchased if needed by going to www.havartwireless.com.
Fence Components:
Controller: The Controller puts all the power of the Custom-Shape Wireless Dog Fence at your fingertips. Through
auditory alerts and an intuitive graphic user interface (GUI) with a touch screen, the Controller provides easy, stepby-step instructions for setting up, activating and managing your system. The Controller will notify you if your dog
breaches the fence boundary, if there is a problem with any of the fence components or if the Collar’s battery
life is low.
Bases: The system features a Master Base and 3 additional Bases, which are easily installed inside the home
using the removable wall-mount adhesive tape or screws. Each Base deploys the patented time-of-flight-ranging
technology with enhanced signal penetration to accurately and reliably determine the location of your dog by
transmitting a radio signal to his Collar. Working in concert with the Controller, the Bases identify and store the
location of the custom-shape fence boundary and Exclusion Zones(s) through precision event-stamp-mapping.
Based on data that is continuously captured, filtered and refined by the system, the Master Base determines whether
or not a correction should be delivered through the Collar.
The Bases also interact with one another to increase the range of the fence boundary, allowing you to create a
containment area up to 400 feet in any direction. No other do-it-yourself, wireless fence system offers a larger
containment area with the ability to custom-fit the fence boundary to the shape of your yard.
Collar: The comfortable, water-proof Collar houses a CR123 battery, 2 correction probes and a state-of-the-art radio
receiver with advanced antenna assembly that communicates with the Bases to constantly track the location of your
dog with regard to the wireless fence boundary and Exclusion Zones(s). When the Bases sense that the Collar is near
the fence boundary or an Exclusion Zone, they send a signal to the Collar to produce an auditory tone. When any
zone is breached, the Bases send another signal to the Collar to deliver a correction through the probes. Using the
Controller, you can progam in any of 5 static correction levels or an auditory correction tone, depending upon the
size and/or stubbornness of your dog. The default correction level is tone-only. You can use your Controller to set up,
name and manage up to 4 Collars for use on multiple dogs.
NOTE: Integrated Motion Sensor technology allows the Collar to conserve battery life when appropriate. Long
battery life will depend on the degree of your dog’s activity during training and beyond.

Getting Started
Getting Started
Some Helpful Tips:
Quick Checklist:
When creating your fence boundary,
make sure to completely close the loop
to create an enclosed containment
area. Use the blue flag as a reference
point to ensure you are closing the loop.
Detailed instructions are found under the
“Boundary Flag Placement” section.
Before you begin the installation process, be sure to
check the following:
Make sure that you have all system components ready
and available.
Charge the Controller for 6 hours.
Regardless of the fence layout you
choose, make sure your house is inside
the enclosed boundary.
Insert a new battery in the Collar. If using more than
one Collar, DO NOT insert batteries in all the Collars at
the same time. It is necessary to insert batteries and
activate the Collars one at a time. Find detailed
instructions under the “Setting Up The Collar(s)”
section of this manual on page 18.
When addressing a curved area, avoid
creating sharp turns or tight corners as
this may cause gaps in your boundary.
The distance between the fence
boundary and Exclusion Zones, and
the distance between Exclusions Zones
must be wider than 12 feet to ensure
adequate access and proper system
performance.
Watch the instructional DVD and use the
Quick Setup Guide.
Plan Your Wireless Fence Boundary & Exclusion Zones:
Because the Custom-Shape Wireless Dog Fence is so flexible, there
are an infinite number of installation layout options you can design. Prior to installation, it is important to map
out how you envision the layout of your wireless fence to ensure it suits the custom shape of your yard while
providing your dog optimum freedom and safety. You may use the grid on page 27 to sketch your design.
The following are sample layouts, which you may consider implementing on your property:

(full charge takes approximately 6 hours).
Installing the Bases:
Position all 4 Bases at the far corners inside of your home and near a
power outlet (including the attached garage if it applies).
2.
Position the Master Base in an interior corner wall near the area where
your dog spends most of his time outdoors. Make sure a power
outlet is nearby. (see Illustration A)
3.
Peel and place the removable wall-mount adhesive tape to the
back of the Master Base. If preferred, use the screws provided to
mount the Master Base. (See page 8 for details)
4.
Attach the Master Base to a wall or window frame approximately
6 feet off the floor and plug into the power outlet.
(see Illustration B)
5.
A green power light will display indicating the Base unit is on.

installed it on the system.
If you plan to activate more than 1
Collar, DO NOT insert batteries in
all the Collars at the same time. It
is necessary to insert batteries and
activate the Collars ONE AT A TIME.
Each Collar uses a CR123 Battery.

Installing the Custom-Shape Wireless Dog Fence
Important Notes:
Fitting a Collar:
To ensure safe and effective operation of the system, it is
important to make sure that the Collar is fitted properly.
The Collar should be snug enough so that
it does not move when your dog moves.
1. Be sure the fence is turned off at the Controller.
If your dog is going to continue to grow or
grows a long winter coat, leave extra room
before trimming off the excess.
2. Position the Collar high on your dog’s neck, with the probes
facing upward centered on your dog’s neck.
3. Make sure that the probes maintain contact with the skin.
- The Collar is factory-installed with long probes for
thick or long-haired breeds.
- Short probes are also provided for short-haired dogs.
4. To change the probes, simply unscrew the long probes and
replace them. Be sure the rubber insulator is between the probe
and the Collar strap. Hand tighten the probes as far as you can.
Do not over tighten.
5. Adjust the Collar to fit snugly but not tightly. You should be able to
slide the tip of one finger between your dog’s coat and one of the
probes on the Collar. The tip of your finger should not be able to slip
between the two easily, but with some effort. It should be a tight
squeeze. Separately, you should be able to slide one finger between
the strap of the Collar and the back of your dog’s neck. (See Figure 6.9)
To help prevent skin irritation, it is
recommended that you never leave
the Collar on your dog for more than 12
consecutive hours at a time.
WARNING
If you do not remove the Collar from your
dog’s neck at least every 12 hours AND
clean your dog’s neck and the Collar,
Pressure Necrosis may occur, which is a
deterioration of your dog’s skin. It is
caused by extended contact to the
pressure of the probes of the Collar
combined with the oil and dirt that may
accumulate on the probes if not kept clean.
6. Once Collar is adjusted to correct length, remove Collar and trim the
excess using scissors.(See Figure 7.0)
s During training, do not let your dog wear the Collar without direct
supervision.
s You should be able to slide the top of one finger between your dog’s coat
and one of the probes on the Collar. Your finger should not be able to slip
between the two easily, but with a little effort. It should be a tight squeeze.
Figure 6.9
s Each time you take the Collar off your dog, look for any indication of a sore
or rash.
s Should you find any indication of a sore or rash on your dog, stop using the
Collar for a few days.
s If the rash or sore exists for more than 2 days, consult your veterinarian.
s Wash your dog’s neck weekly with mild soap and a wash cloth and then
rinse clean.
s Wash the probes of the Collar weekly with mild soap and a wash cloth and
then rinse clean.

Important Note:
IMPORTANT REMINDERS:
Please read the following information completely before you
begin training:
The Custom-Shape Wireless Dog Fence
from Havahart® is not a physical boundary.
It is necessary to contain your dog using a
leash or other means during training.
Proper training of your dog is essential to help ensure the
successful operation of your Radial-Shape Wireless Dog Fence.
We recommend that you train your dog for a minimum of 14
consecutive days. Use a calendar to track your dog’s progress.
Keep your training sessions short and frequent--approximately 10-15 minutes long, 2-3 times a day.
Every dog is unique and may respond differently to the training depending on his/her own temperament
and ability to learn. For this reason, you may need to adjust your training schedule accordingly.
It may be necessary to decrease the speed of the training schedule or add more training days if your dog seems
to be under stress. Signs that you dog may be under stress include: Tail between legs, ears pulled back, refusal to
go outside the home and nervous shaking.
Before beginning Collar-assisted training, allow your dog to get used to wearing the Havahart® Collar with the
battery removed.
Have fun with your dog during the training process and end each session with positive praise and play time
within 11 feet of the fence boundary.
Be patient and consistent in your approach.
Remove the Havahart® Collar after each training session.
If you need to take your dog out of the Roaming Area during training, remove the Havahart® Collar and
either carry your dog out or take him out in a car.
If you are training more than one dog, train each dog separately.
It is important that you complete the entire training process and do not skip any phases.

PHASE 4 -- Off-Leash Supervision -- DAY 11-14
Begin with short training sessions 10-15 minutes in length and gradually increase the sessions
to an hour or more.
1.
Do not leave your dog unattended during this phase of training.
2.
Fit the Havahart® Collar around your dog’s neck. Place a different non-metal collar on top of the Havahart® Collar.

PHASE 5 -- Dog Monitoring -- DAY 15 AND BEYOND
1.
Your dog should now be comfortable within the Roaming Area and reluctant to cross the boundary line with or
without distractions.
2.
Your dog may require training to become comfortable leaving the Roaming Area for activities such as walks or
riding in the car. This may be accomplished by:
1. Removing the Havahart® Collar and walking your dog outside of the Roaming Area while on a leash. Cross
the same area of the boundary line each time, giving the command ‘OK’ and praising your dog for crossing this
specific area. Always leave this area with your dog on a leash.
2. Removing the Havahart® Collar, putting your dog in the car and driving outside the Roaming Area.
NOTE: Within 60-90 days, you can begin to gradually remove the boundary flags by taking
away every other flag, every few days.
