How the pet fencing system works
●
You can define your pet's play area by installing a wire, called antenna wire, around the authorized perimeter. This
wire placed on the ground, buried or raised on an existing fence carries a radio signal from the transmitter.
When your pet, wearing a receiver collar, approaches this wire, he is warned by beep sounds that he is too close to an
area where he is not allowed; then if he carries on, static stimulations will be emitted by the collar. Your pet will have
to leave the unauthorized area to stop the stimulations and beep sounds.
An unlimited number of receiver collars can be used with one transmitter: you can keep as many cats and
dogs as you wish safely in the same area.
The CANIFUGUE SMALL pet fencing system has been designed to give you complete satisfaction with an antenna wire
with a maximum length of 400 meters (equivalent to one square hectare). If a longer antenna wire is used, the pet
fencing system will still work, but the warning and stimulation zones will be markedly reduced.
Installing the pet fencing system
●
Transmitter
The transmitter must be installed indoors in a dry location: the transmitter can withstand changes in temperature but
will be damaged by water. Make sure the transmitter is correctly and surely fixed (for example, screw it to a wall).
Install the transmitter in a garage or garden shed near an electrical outlet (220 V AC).
Antenna wire
For the system to operate, the wire must be connected to the transmitter and form a continuous loop from the
transmitter and back again. The outward and inward wires must be spaced 2 meters apart to avoid cancelling the
signal.
0.52 mm² or 1.5 mm² wire can be used (you can combine several wire sections).
The wire sections recommended depending on the length of the system are as follows:
− for less than 400 m of antenna wire: 0.52 mm²
− from 400 to 800 m of antenna wire: 1.5 mm²
From the transmitter, unroll the wire around the perimeter you wish to protect. To run the wire from your garage or
garden shed, pass it through a window, door or similar.
The wire can be placed on the ground, buried (maximum: 10 cm deep) or fixed to a non-metallic existing fence or
wall (best height: your pet's neck height). If you plan on burying the wire, make sure your installation is functioning
properly before doing so. You can protect the wire by running it through PVC pipe or a length of garden hose.
The wire must not be taut as variations in temperature may cause it to expand or contract. In the corners, do not
make right angles but prefer rounded corners with a large radius.
Separate the wire by at least 2 meters from a metallic gate or one meter from a metallic fence.
Do not install the antenna wire near an electrical cable, telephone cable, television cable or satellite dishes.
In order to prevent any interference, do not run the wire within 3 meters or parallel to electrical cables. If you must
cross electrical wires, telephone wires or television cables, do so at 90 degree angles.
If you need more than 100 m of antenna wire, you must connect the different lengths of wire using the supplied
connectors (the wire does not need to be stripped). You can purchase additional wire and connectors from your
supplier at any time.
To ensure your pet does not receive any warning or stimulation in certain free areas (e.g. between the transmitter in
the garage and the edge of your property) you have to twist the outward wire around the inward wire. The twists
prevent radio waves from being emitted (ref. Diagram 4).
Once the loop is completed and you are back to the transmitter, strip the two ends of the wire to connect them to the
supplied transmitter connector (connect each wire with each connector screw). Then, insert this connector into the
antenna socket located on the transmitter (ref. Diagram 2 – the connector is slanted. If you can't insert it, turn it 1/2
turn).
