Zone Width Setting ("Warning" And "Correcting" Zones) - Dog trace d–fence Service Instructions Manual

Zone width setting ("warning" and "correcting" zones)

With your transmitter you can extend and reduce the width of the warning and correcting
zones, depending on conditions in your piece of land and upon how the wire is laid .
a) The warning zone (sound signal)
It is infinitely adjustable from 0,40 m to 5 m (the detection distance is approximate, depen-
ding on the loop length and location of the wire) along both sides of the wire using the
knob located on the transmitter panel . Steps 0 to 10 will help you define the zone width
according to your needs, whereas it approximately holds true that 0 = 0,40 m and 10 = 5 m .
b) The correcting zone (pulses)
It is infinitely adjustable from 0,30 m to 1,50 m (the detection distance is approximate,
depending on the loop length and location of the wire) along both sides of the wire . Steps
0 to 10 will help you define the one width according to your needs, whereas it approxi-
mately holds true that 0 = 0,30 m and 10 = 1,5 m .
c) Checking and setting the zones
Before you let your dog enter its restricted area, you should physically check the surface
and boundaries of your piece of land assigned to your pet . For this purpose, first place the
leads of the testing discharge lamp under the electrodes of the receiving collar; release
them slightly and then fasten them slightly again so that they can press down the testing
lamp wires . Install a battery in the receiving collar and then power up the transmitter by
setting the switch to the left to "ON" . Set both potentiometer knobs to "0" position .
Correcting zone setting
Select a distance from the antenna wire where you wish to define the correcting zone for
your dog, stand up on that place and hold the receiving collar by the strap about 30 cm
above ground with the logo facing to the antenna wire .
Then, turn slowly the potentiometer to adjust the correcting zone as long as the test LED is
regularly on in given intervals (approximately after 1 second) along with audible sound signal .
Warning zone setting
The procedure is the same as the previous one . Select a distance from the antenna wire
where you wish to define the warning zone for your dog, stand up on that place and hold
the receiving collar by the strap about 30 cm above ground with the logo facing to the
antenna wire . Then, turn slowly the potentiometer to adjust the warning zone as long as
a rapid intermittent sound signal is heard .
Important:
The zone width is changed according to the length and location of the antenna wire
in your piece of land . The longer the antenna wire is, the narrower are the zones .
The width may also be different at the bends (in the corners) compared to straight
sections .
