2. INSTALL THE TRANSMITTER
The transmitter can be installed anywhere you do not wish your dog to go. In order to get
maximum results, certain places are to be avoided.
Avoid placing the transmitter on metallic surfaces, on a table having a metal rim or near massive
metallic objects like a refrigerator, a washing machine, a dryer, a metal wall. Metallic objects can
alter the magnetic field and change the range of the signal. The effects on the range depend on the
size and the form of these objects. Metallic objects can also change the warning signal and the
rate of correction. The range will also be reduced if you place the transmitter on a concrete floor.
This is due to the metallic reinforcement under the cement. It is possible that the transmitter could
affect certain types of loudspeakers causing crackling sounds. Avoid placing the transmitter near
audio systems.
You will get a maximal range by placing the transmitter on a non-conducting surface like a
wooden floor or table. You can get a 3 m (10') range when the transmitter is placed on a wooden
floor. You can also hang the transmitter on a wall. In that position, the signal range is very
directional. The signal is very strong directly in front and behind the transmitter. It is weaker on
the sides of the apparatus. However, never hang the transmitter on a metallic wall.

The range setting button (which is also the ON/OFF switch) adjusts the length of the zone
between the transmitter and the limit where the receiver will pick up the signal (adjustable from
