Petsafe Innotek Basic In-Ground Fence - Manual (Page 3)

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR WIRE PLACEMENT:
• Do NOT run the loop within 2 meters parallel to electrical, telephone, cable TV, or other
buried wire in the yard.
• Do NOT run one section of wire within 3 meters of another section or the signal may
cancel.
• Do NOT run your wire within 3 meters of any adjacent containment system’s wire.
STEP 3.
ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF WIRE NEEDED
Both the battery-operated and rechargeable models include 152 meters of boundary wire. It can enclose an area
of nearly .2 hectares.
The amount of wire needed is determined by several factors:
(a)Total area to be contained
(b)Using a double loop. This requires twice as much wire.
(c) Size of the signal field. The signal field is the distance from the wire
to the place where the collar receiver first activates. A 3 to 4 meters
wide field is preferred.
Additional boundary kits (available separately) allow you to add wire to contain
a larger area. The battery-operated model can contain up to 2 hectares. The
rechargeable model can contain up to 10 hectares. Each boundary kit includes
152 meters of wire, 50 training flags, and two waterproof wire splices.
STEP 4.
INSTALL THE WALL TRANSMITTER
Install the wall transmitter close to a standard 220-volt house-
hold outlet. Do not plug the transmitter to the outlet until the
boundary wire is in place.
STEP 5.
DETERMINE YARD SIZE SETTING
The wall transmitter contains an internal jumper that can be
adjusted for small or large yards. The jumper is pre-set at the
factory for small yards. The small yard setting is for an area
that requires less than 300 meters of wire. A large yard set-
ting is for an area that requires more than 300 meters of wire.
