Test for Collar Fit

This test is an added feature to verify fit but is not required for the system to function. After the ReadyTest

®

, the

Receiver Collar will go into PerfectFit

test mode. This mode begins with a flashing yellow light. To use this feature,

you must place the Receiver Collar on your dog within 90 seconds of removing it from the Collar Charger. The

Receiver Collar will emit a chime tone as the Contact Points touch your dog’s skin. You will know you have the proper

fit when the collar chimes and flashes green 5 consecutive times. After 90 seconds, the Receiver Collar moves into

normal operation mode.
The Receiver Collar will still function normally if you are unable to place the Receiver Collar on your dog within 90

seconds of removing it from the Collar Charger. If you wish to use the PerfectFit

test after 90 seconds have passed,

place the Receiver Collar back on the charger for 5 seconds. Remove the collar and allow it to complete the ReadyTest

®

before placing it on your dog.

See Step 11 for proper fit before you place collar on your pet.

Receiver Collar Status Indicators

The Receiver Collar Status Indicator Light along with the Receiver Collar Alarm Tone are used to determine the

operational mode, the battery status, and the correction type. Refer to the Receiver Collar Status Indicator Table

below to understand the status lights and tones for the Receiver Collar. During normal operation, the Receiver

Collar Indicator Light will flash every 3 seconds to indicate the battery status as shown in the table below.

Anti–Linger Prevention

The Anti-Linger Prevention feature keeps your dog from staying in the Warning Zone for long periods of time and

draining the Receiver Collar battery. Your dog will hear a two second warning tone when he reaches the Warning Zone.

If your dog does not return to the Pet Area after two seconds, he will receive a continuous Static Correction until he

returns to the Pet Area.

Run Through Prevention

This system includes a unique “run-through” prevention so that your dog cannot escape the Pet Area without

receiving an increased level of Static Correction. The Receiver Collar automatically increases the Static Correction

when your dog continues more than

1

3

of the way through the pet fencing Field Width. For example, if the signal

is detected 12 feet from the wire and your dog enters the Static Correction Zone, this feature is activated when

he is approximately 8 feet from the Boundary Wire. Your dog will then receive a Static Correction that is at an

increased level corresponding to the Static Correction level setting on the Fence Transmitter.

Over Correction Protection

In the unlikely event that your pet “freezes” in the Static Correction Zone, this feature limits the Static Correction

duration to 10 seconds. While the system locks out further Static Correction, the green light will remain on for 10

seconds before resuming the correction with tone for another 10 seconds. This pattern will repeat for a maximum of

three cycles, a duration of 60 seconds, or until the pet leaves the Static Correction Zone.
