This

is among
the most

the

causes

holes, make
sure there
are no
electrical wires,
nails or screws inside
the area

are drilling.
D, Determine
the Exit Route
ofYour Boundary
Wire from
the Transmitter
to the Outside
Containment Area
Since
your
tEnsmitter must
be mounted in
an enclosed
area to
protect
it
from
the weather,
give
careful
consideration on where
the wire
exits to the
exterior.
Existing
openings such as
a
window,

provide
easy
access to the
outside. You may need
to drill a hole through
the exterior

lt
€n enclose
an area
of
over 1.2 acres.
The
amount
of wire needed
is detemined
by
several facto6:
(a)Total
area to
be contained:
(b)Using
a double loop.
This reouires
twice
as much wire_
(c)Size
of the

The signal
field is the
distance
from the
wire to the
pla@
where the

activates.
A 3 to 4 metec
wide feld is
prefered.
STEP 4
INSTALL

a @ntinuous loop.
Use
gEdual
turns at
the

a minimum
of lmeter radius.
This
provides
a
more @nsistent
signal
Iield.
2. lf
you
are
using more wiE
than initially
supplied with
your
@ntainment
system, the
wire connections
must
be waterproof
to
provide
a sealed
connection between
the
wires. Do not
use electri@l tape
or twisted wire
nuts.
This
will @use

STEP 6
CONNECT
THE PERIMETER
WRE
TO THE
WALL
TRANSMITTER
The
wire from

should
be twisted

This allows
the

cros the
area without
rmiving
a @rection.
It also
elimlnates

To veriry
the transmitter

functioning
prcpedy,
look
for

lights
on
the tEnsmitter.
When

Burying the wlrc
-
The wirc d@s not have to
