3. Hold the Receiver Collar at the

approximate height of your pet’s neck

(3B). Start outside of the range and walk

slowly toward the Barrier Transmitter. As

you reach the Barrier Area, the Receiver

Collar emits a series of high-pitched

tones. For each tone you hear, you

should notice the Test Light flashing

which indicates that a Progressive Static

Correction is being delivered. The

Receiver Collar’s tone is easily heard by

pets but may be at a volume level difficult

for some humans to hear.

4. Check the range of the Barrier Area from

multiple angles to ensure you are getting

the desired coverage.

Note: Should you find that you are not getting the desired range at the maximum setting,

move the Barrier Transmitter a foot, or change from its standing-on-end position to laying

flat. Metal objects can alter the magnetic field and change the transmitting signal range.

The effect on the range depends on the size and shape of the objects. Signal range can be

reduced if the Barrier Transmitter is placed on a concrete floor, due to steel reinforcement

in the concrete. For best range results, place the Barrier Transmitter on a nonconductive

surface, i.e., wood floor or table. Placing the Barrier Transmitter beneath sofas and beds

can reduce the range due to the metal springs altering the magnetic field.
