3 800 Series Equipment ICT-801 Transmitter The ICT-801 Transmitter is a single loop transmitter with a few unique features. 1. The ICT-801 is only compatible with the R21 Titanium series 4.X computer collars. 2. The ICT-801 has a built in mask system which eliminates the need for an external mask. 3. The ICT-801 is programmable to transmit both 7K and 10K in outdoor and indoor modes. 4. Less susceptible to interference and false activations. The ICT-801 has an audible alarm that will activate if the wiring, board, or surge protection circuitry is damaged The ICT-801 has one signal adjustment knob which can precisely control the distance that the collar activates from the wiring system. The ICT-801 has a blinking green light to indicate that the unit is getting power and the wiring is intact. The light blinks 1 second on and 4 seconds off under normal operation. The ICT-801 has an optional 12 volt battery backup system which can power the loop if AC power is lost. Once engaged the blinking indicator light will change from green to red, and an audible alarm will chirp every 5 seconds to indicate the loss of AC power. There is no 2 amp fuse needed to protect the transmitter board from improper connection of the Battery backup system. It is built into the board already. The ICT-801 operates using a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. The ICT-801 like all outdoor transmitters must be protected and grounded using an LP4100 surge protection system. 3

4 Settings of the ICT-801 The ICT-801 can be programmed to a wide variety of settings by using two small red buttons in the lower left corner of the transmitter board. (Labeled S1 and S2 below) Loop can be turned off and on by toggling between the off and on setting using S1 and S2. The frequency for loop one can be selected as 7K or 10K by using S1 and S2. Indoor or Outdoor mode can be selected by using S1 and S2. Select the type of signal masking or boundary, that the ICT- 801 will transmit by using S1 and S2. S1 S2 The ICT-801 is also equipped with a light to indicate when the unit has reached its output saturation. At that point it will not be possible to generate more signal off of the boundary wire. Saturation may be caused by excessive loop size, resistance, poor connections, or when the current has reached maximum level. Indoor vs. Outdoor signal The ICT-801 can generate signals which allow the New R21 v4.x Receivers to distinguish between indoor avoidance loops and outdoor containment boundaries. This feature will allow multiple pet properties to allow one pet access to a room while excluding another pet from the same area, even though both pets collars are set to the same operating frequency. Both dogs will still be contained by the same outdoor boundary loop, also set to the same operating frequency. 4

5 Programming the ICT-801 S1- is used to place the ICT-801 in program mode, and to move to the next setting. S2- is used to select between each setting option. The ICT-801has the following default settings when first plugged in.

13 LP 4100 The LP 4100 is a surge protection system for single loop systems. It plugs directly into a grounded (3 prong) 110 volt AC outlet. The LP 4100 is a significant improvement over LP Cards, LP 3000, and LP 2000 as it: 1. Provides line protection and loop wire protection. 2. Indicates the proper system status if unit is damaged. 3. Provides a higher level of protection than all other previous types of surge protection. The transmitters AC adaptor plugs directly into the front of the LP 4100 The wire coming in from the perimeter loop connects to the left side labeled Loop. The wire from the Transmitter connects to the right side labeled Transmitter. When attaching LP4100 to the outlet use the center outlet screw to secure the unit to the outlet. When installing an LP4100 with an ICT-725 it is important to remove the LP card and install a jumper card in its place. In addition the 12awg grounding wire that was formerly attached to the outlet screw to ground the system should be detached. 13

14 When Mounting an LP4100 to a 3 pronged outlet always try to use the lower plug Remove the center face plate screw Then replace the original face plate screw using a longer screw if necessary to secure the LP4100 to the outlet. (This is for mechanical reinforcement and in no way grounds the LP) If there are no grounded 3 pronged AC outlets available for use, a ground adaptor shown below will have to be used. 1. Remove center face plate screw 2. Plug adaptor into outlet 3. Screw center face plate screw back into outlet through eyelet at the bottom of the adaptor. This will ground the system effectively. 4. Finally attach LP4100 to adaptor LP

23 CF 2200 Portable Programmer Objective: to understand the operation and features of the CF 2200 Portable Programmer. The CF2200 can be used to download or configure the settings OR review operating and battery history from the memory of an Invisible Fence receiver. To maximize the programming ability of the CF2200 an R21 v4.x should be used. If an R21 other then a v4.x is used, the programmer will not be able to change all of the following settings or view all of the stored information. 1. The Following pieces of operational information can be viewed and/or programmed. a. Receivers model number b. Date code of receiver c. Last 6 digits of the serial number of a receiver d. Frequency of receiver e. Modulation of receiver f. Delay settings of receiver g. Correction setting of receiver 2. The following pieces of operating and battery history can be viewed on the CF2200. a. Number of power caps that have used in a receiver b. Total hours that each of the previous 6 power caps lasted in the receiver. c. Number of corrections the receiver delivered during each of the last 6 batteries used. This History can help determine behavioral patterns in each dog, provide ideas for program changes, and predict battery life. 23

24 Using the CF2200 IMPORTANT- Never remove the receiver at any time while the CF2200 is loading the configuration of a receiver as none of the settings will be saved 1. To turn on the CF2200 press and release any of the 4 buttons below the LCD screen. 2. After an introduction choose to configure or view the history of a receiver.

Configuring a Receiver Once the CF2200 has finished loading the receiver s configuration the following screen will appear giving you the option to Configure the receiver or Exit. This can be done by pressing the black button below the desired selection. 24

25 The top line of the LCD will display the following information Version Number Date Code Last 6 digits of the serial number To maximize the programming ability of the CF2200 an R21 v4.x should be used. If an R21 other then a v4.x is used, the programmer will not be able to change all of the following settings. When programming the Frequency of the collar on a CF2200 you can choose between 10K and 7K. In addition a signal type can be selected -Indoor -Outdoor -Both 25

26 Setting the Collar Here are examples of 3 different signal type settings all set to 7K. 1. 7i = 7K indoor only 2. 7o = 7K outdoor only 3. 7b = 7K both indoor and outdoor signals Here are examples of 3 different delay settings. 1. DLY 0- No Delay, collar beeps and corrects at the same time. 2. DLY 5- Longest Delay possible. Collar will beep only for first 5 beeps and then correct dog after a delay of approximately 1.6 seconds. 3. DLY 3- Comparable to current delay setting. Collar will beep 3 times and then correct after approximately.8 seconds. The correction Level can also be set for both rate and amplitude. These settings will be noted by the two numbers below COR. 26

27 Setting the Correction Level Amplitude- The strength of the correction. Rate- The speed at which the corrections are given. Once you have chosen the correction setting the screen above will appear. Choose your desired settings and hit the Red button below RET. Retrieving and Reviewing History Push the Black button below History to load. 27

28 Number of corrections delivered during the time that a battery was in the collar Total number of hours that this battery was used to power the collar This will show the number of the battery that is being displayed followed by the total number of batteries that have stored information in the Receiver. In this example we are looking at Battery number two, of two total batteries. This battery has been in for 238 total hours and has yet to give a correction. 28

29 Shields Indoor Avoidance Transmitter The Shields indoor is designed to work independently or to compliment the existing 800 series outdoor containment equipment. It will work with the Titanium 4.X, Classics, Microlites, Maxx Dog collars. Backwards Compatible shields starting with a serial number of S1 are backwards compatible, and will work on 7xx signal in 7k. Due to power consumption, the Shield unit must be plugged in. The Shields Transmitter has a 1 year warranty from date of original retail purchase. It is an Indoor Only transmitter, and using it outside will void its warranty in full The Shields transmitter can operate using a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. The range of the Shield can be adjusted from 1 foot to 6 feet using the Range Up and Range Down buttons on the face of the unit. The Shield transmitter has a Rechargeable battery inside the unit that is designed to last approximately 30 days, when the transmitter is set to its maximum signal field width. The low battery light will begin flashing RED when it is time to recharge the battery. Plug the unit in for 24 hours and the battery will be recharged for another 30 days. Turning Shields on: The Shields Transmitter can be turned on by pressing the Range Up button, at which time a segmented bar will appear. Each segment bar represents approximately 1 foot of radius signal. (Field set to 2 feet in picture below) 29

30 Turning Shields off: The Shields Transmitter can be turned off by pressing the Range Down button until all segmented bars disappear. Setting the frequency on a Shields Transmitter: **Shields are preset to 7K when shipped out from the Factory Follow these steps to set frequency on Shield 1. Make sure Shields unit is turned off. 2. Hit Range Up button once 3. Hit Range Down button once 4. Hit Channel button 3 times 5. At this point the segmented bars will begin flashing for a few seconds. While these bars are flashing the Shields is in program mode. 6. While the Shields is in program mode hit the Channel button to change frequencies. This will allow you to move a vertical bar inside the display screen from Channel 1 to Channel When the vertical bar is under Channel 1 the frequency is set to 7K. 8. When the vertical bar is over Channel 2 the frequency is set to 10K. 9. The Shield will take itself out of program mode when no buttons are pushed for a few seconds. The frequency setting will remain the same until the unit is put back into program mode again. 30

31 Multi-Area Shielding In some homes it may be desirable to allow one pet access to a specific area while excluding a different pet from the same area. This can be done by setting the Shields to different Channels. 1. When a Shield is set to Channel 1 it will activate all collars set to Channel 1 (set to the same frequency) 2. When a Shield is set to Channel 2 it will activate all collars set to Channel 2 (set to the same frequency) 3. When a Shield is set to Channel 1and Channel 2 it will activate all collars set to Channel 1 or Channel 2 (set to the same frequency) **Shields Transmitters and 800 compatible collars are preset to operate on Channel 1 Changing Channels on Shields 1. Make sure the Shields transmitter is turned off. 2. Press and hold the Channel button until the status bar appears next to Channel 1, Channel 2, or both Channel 1 and Channel 2. Shields is in program mode. 3. Press and release the Channel button until the desired Channel is selected. 4. Shields will take itself out of program mode once no buttons are pushed for a few seconds. The Channel setting will be saved until the unit is placed back into program mode. 31

32 Programming the 800 Series Collar If either Channel 1 or Channel 2 was selected on the Shield then the 800 series collar needs to be programmed to work with that Shield. If both Channels on the Shield have been selected the 800 series doesn t need to be programmed, it is ready for use. To program a 800 series collar to work with a specific Shield follow these steps: 1. Place the 800 series within one foot of the Shields transmitter.(please make sure all other collars are at least 3 feet away as all titanium s within range will be programmed to that channel) 2. Make sure the battery is in the collar and the battery indicator light is visible to you. 3. Hold down the Channel button on the Shields Transmitter until the status bar appears on the transmitter (approximately 2 seconds) 4. Continue holding the Channel button until the status indicator light on the 800 series collar flashes green 3 times. (Please note that the light will flicker yellow before flashing green. Also if it flashes red 3 times it has not been programmed) 5. Release the channel button as soon as the titanium collar flashes green. The 800 series collar is now programmed to that channel. 6. Test collar to verify the collar has been programmed properly. Shields Produce both Indoor and Outdoor signals at the same time. If the 800 series collar is set to pick up both signals it will default to the indoor correction level. If the Titanium collar is set to either indoor or outdoor only it will correct at that setting. 32

33 Setting The Newer Shield Transmitters The Newest Shield Transmitters have simplified the processes of setting the Frequency and Channel settings On the back of the new shields there are a pair of switched that allow you to control: Turning the unit off and on Setting the frequency to 10K or 7K Setting the channel of the Shield The Channels of the newer are now Channel A instead of Channel 1 Channel B instead of Channel 2 Channel A and B instead of Channel 1 and 2 33

34 700/800 Backwards Compatible Shields Indoor Avoidance Transmitter Shield Indoor Avoidance transmitters now can be programed to work with both 700 and 800 series systems. To identify a Backwards Compatible Shield flip the unit over to inspect the serial numbers. All units beginning with the Prefix S1 The B/C Shield still produces a sphere of signal from the center of the unit with the maximum range being about 6-7 feet, whether set to 700 or 800 series 34

43 Changing the Channel on the Shield Outdoor Plus Transmitter To Change the channel settings on the Shield follow these steps: Remove the battery door by loosening the 4 Phillips head screws. Remove the 4 D size alkaline batteries if you had already placed them inside the unit. Locate the 4 position dip switch inside the battery compartment. The first 2 switches allow the Shield Outdoor Plus to produce 3 different channel settings. Channel A Channel B Channel A and B The label inside the battery compartment illustrates the positions required to select Channel A, Channel B or Channels A & B. 4 Switches 43

44 Changing the Rate Setting on the Shield Outdoor Plus Transmitter Changing the reaction rate on the Outdoor Shields Plus transmitter will change two things It will change how fast or slow the collar reacts to the signal output of the transmitter The fast setting will cause the collar to react with the same speed that it would with an ICT series transmitter The slow setting will activate the collar but there will be a slight lag in terms of how fast the collar activates Adjusting the rate also effects the battery life of the 4 D batteries powering the Shield. A faster rate will drain the batteries more rapidly. For example at a slow setting the batteries may last up to 12 months, while at a fast setting the batteries may only last 4 months. Changing the Rate Setting on the Shield Outdoor Plus Transmitter To change the rate setting follow these steps Make sure the range is all the way down Remove the battery door and the batteries inside the chamber exposing the 4 switches that control the Channel and Rate settings Locate switches 3 and 4. Then using the schematic (also on the inside of the Transmitter) move the switches to the up and down position to select the desired reaction rate. 44

45 Adjusting the Range With the transmitter ON, press the RANGE UP (+) or the RANGE DOWN (-) buttons to increase or decrease the signal field range. Each segment of displayed bar represents an approximate 10-inch radius of range from the center of the transmitter. The Shields Plus transmitter has a low battery Indicator that will alert you when the batteries need to be changed. To check for a low battery: Open the lid exposing the LCD display and buttons. If the LCD display is flashing, it is time to replace the batteries. After replacing the batteries you will need to check and see if the range for the signal field is set to the desired area. Internal vs. External settings The Shields Plus Outdoor Avoidance Transmitter can be set to produce a sphere of signal or power a loop of wire of up to 100 feet To control how the signal is produced use the Internal/External switch located inside the battery chamber of the unit In order to have the Shield Plus produce a sphere of signal the unit needs to be set to the INTERNAL setting In order to enable the Shield Plus to power a loop of wiring it needs to be set to the EXTERNAL setting Setting the unit to the external setting will send the signal to the two screws located at the base of the unit under the battery compartment door. 45

46 Adding wire to the Outdoor Shield Plus transmitter To use the Shield Plus Transmitter to power a loop of wire follow these steps: Make sure the range is all the way down Remove the Battery door from the transmitter and remove the batteries if inside Locate the switch labeled INTERNAL/EXTERNAL inside the battery cavity This switch allows the Outdoor Shield Transmitter to operate as a Wireless transmitter (INTERNAL) or a Wired (EXTERNAL) unit. Move the switch to the EXTERNAL position. This will cause the signal to be sent to the two screws and through the wire. Using Speaker/Indoor wire strip off ½ an inch of insulation from the boundary wire that is going to be attached Loosen the two Phillips head wire connection screws adjacent to the battery compartment and insert the stripped ends of the wire Once in place tighten the screws back down ensuring that none of the bare wires are touching each other Replace batteries and battery door Run hard wired loop accordingly 46

47 Boundary Plus Transmitter 47

48 Boundary Plus How the Boundary Plus System Works The Boundary Plus system is unique in that, when set to the SSP-A signal, the R22 Boundary Plus Computer Collar can detect which side to the boundary wire it is on. This allows the Computer Collar to activate only after the pet crosses over the boundary wire. Only the R22 Boundary Plus Computer Collar will activate to the SSP-A signal. The signal field created at the boundary wire is the same as the current technology signal field. Maximum Free Space, Maximum Safety 48

49 How the Boundary Plus System Works The R22 Boundary Plus Computer Collar uses Patent Pending technology to process this signal and determine which side of the wire the pet is on. It must see a progression through the signal field to activate. As the pet moves through the signal field the Computer Collar will see a Weak In signal, a Strong In signal then a Strong Out signal after it crosses the loop wire. This allows the Computer Collar to activate only after crossing the boundary wire (extended safe area) and not activate if the pet is entering the safe area from the outside (free pass). 49

50 Maximum Free Space, Maximum Safety The Boundary Plus Computer Collar will begin activating once the pet crosses the boundary wire and continue activating for a set number of seconds, even if the pet continues beyond the outside signal field. This gives the pet the perception of an endless boundary. Factory default of 7 seconds The activation will immediately stop if the pet returns to the safe area and the Computer Collar receives any In signal (True No Run Through). The Boundary Plus Computer Collar will operate similarly to an 800 series Computer Collar when it comes across an appropriate 800 series signal field. This allows the Computer Collar to be used with standard signal fields and Pet Free Indoor & Pet Free Outdoor devices. 50

51 Boundary Plus Transmitter With Boundary Plus, we can now reach new prospects that we could not reach before: Smaller properties Lots that were too small to install in the past City lots McMansions (big house, small yard) Condo s Properties with physical fences Kennels Condo s Now we can install around condo s even middle units because the wire will not send a signal inside the house that could possible cause the dog s collar to activate in safe areas. Some installation ideas are: back yard only loop with a mask by the door run the wire up and over the house or through a garage 51

52 Boundary Plus Transmitter The Boundary Plus Transmitter is a dual loop programmable transmitter. Loop 1 set to SSP-A (Boundary Plus ) can have up to 700 feet of loop wire and up to 150 feet of twisted pair. NO MORE!!!

The Boundary Plus has an audible alarm that will activate if the wiring, board, or surge protection circuitry is damaged The Boundary Plus has an optional battery backup system which can power the loop if AC power is lost. The internal backup battery fully charged provides enough power to the system for approximately 8 hours with the signal field set to the standard width. The external backup battery fully charged provides enough power to the system for approximately 40 hours with the signal field set to the standard width. Conversely, the narrower the signal field is set, the longer the battery will continue to power the system. If the Battery back up is low or disconnected the Battery Fault light will light up directly above the S1 button The Boundary Plus has a pair signal adjustment knobs which can precisely control the distance that the collar(s) activate from the wiring system when set to 800 series mode The ICT-801 like all outdoor transmitters must be protected and grounded using an LP4200 surge protection system. 53

60 Max Dog Computer Collar R21 Basic Max Dog Receiver The Max Dog is a new lightweight computer collar That can be individually programmed using the CF2200 to fit the personality of each dog. The Max Dog looks very similar to the R21 Basic except that it is slightly wider at the top. The max Dog is only 5% larger then the R22 series collars The Max Dog computer collar is equipped with a larger, more powerful transformer that enables it to give a much stronger correction then any other collar. The larger transformer requires more room which makes the Max dog collar wider. The larger transformer allows the Max Dog to draw more energy from the same 3 volt power cap used by all other receivers. This allows the Max Dog Receiver the generate a greater output and a stronger correction then any other collar previous. The Larger transformer and subsequent stronger correction will shorten the battery life of the power cap to two months rather then the typical battery life cycle of three months New transformer will provide a 70% higher correction level than a Microlite on levels 5 Due to the initial power draw on the battery, a fresh Power Cap is required when powering up the new Max Dog Computer Collar either out of the box or when the Max Dog Computer Collar has not been powered up for over one minute. Use of an old Power Cap may result in the Max Dog Computer Collar blinking red during the first Power Cap test sequence. If his occurs; wait five to ten seconds after the last red blink, then unlock and relock the Power Cap. The LED should now flash green. If this does not occur, replace with a new Power Cap. 60

71 LP Cards LP Cards LP Cards are used in conjunction with the ICT-725, 750, and 250. They are inserted in the right side of the transmitter board and provide loop side protection against surges. Signal from the transmitter must pass through the LP Cards before reaching the loop wire and consequently surges from the loop wire must pass through the LP Card. When LP Cards are used on either the ICT-750 or the ICT-250, one card must be used for each single loop. This will protect against surges from either wiring system. Since LP Cards are inserted directly into the Transmitter board, the grounding wire that attaches to the outlet will also be connected directly to the transmitter board. After attaching the ringed end to a grounded 110 volt outlet, the other end should be attached to the Earth Ground screw located on the lower portion of the board. This screw can be found in between the loop wire connector and the 2 amp fast blow fuse. 71

72 LP2000 and LP3000 Both of these units were designed to provide loop side protection with the ICT-50, 75, 100, 150, and 700 series transmitters as well as well as masking transmitters when used outside. These units should be mounted near the transmitter and a grounded 110volt AC outlet. A short length of twisted wire should be run from the transmitter to the wire connector marked Transmitter on either LP. Then connect the twisted wire that leads out to the perimeter loop to the connector marked Loop. LP2000 LP3000 All outdoor transmitters require some form of surge protection circuitry. Two of the most common types are the LP2000 and LP3000. These units help protect transmitters from the damage that can be caused a surge. It is important to note that these units only provide protection from a surge coming from the loop side of the system. In some cases an LP may be mounted on the outer wall of the garage or basement and grounded to a 5 foot grounding rod. If this unit has gone bad the system should be reground inside to the current grounding specifications, explained on this page. When using these units to ground a system, there must be metal to metal contact from the ground wire to the outlet screw. First secure the 12awg grounding wire to LP in the terminal marked GND. The attach the face plate screw from the outlet to the wire ring terminal to the 12awg grounding wire. If the face plate screw is not making metal to metal contact then attach the ring terminal to the junction box screw under the face plate. This same technique can be used for grounding to GFI outlets as well. 72

73 Panamax This unit was designed to provide loop and line protection for all ICT 50, 75,100, 150, 700, and all outdoor masking transmitters. When installing a Panamax connect a section of twisted from the transmitter to the transmitter port on the Panamax, and then connect the twisted that leads to the perimeter loop to the loop port on the Panamax. No grounding wire is necessary. Simply plug the unit into the grounded outlet to effectively ground the system. The Panamax unlike the LP3000 provides protection, from a surge that originates from the 110 volt AC outlet. After installing a Panamax on an existing system always check the signal field width as it may need to be reset. If possible avoid installing a Panamax into a GFI outlet. The system will function properly but in the event the unit does take a surge the GFI outlet may trip and need to be reset. 73

74 External 12 volt Battery backup An external 12 volt Battery backup can be connected to many transmitters including the ICT-725, 750, 775, 250 transmitters. The battery back up jack is located on all of these boards directly in between the indicator light and the 12 volt AC power jack, on the left side of the transmitter board. Once the battery backup is engaged, the indicator light to change from green to red. Red light = Battery backup engaged. DO NOT cross the wires when connecting them from the external battery to the transmitter, as you may damage the board or blow the 2 amp protective fuse. The external battery backup will power the system for approximately 10 hours (with loops set at maximum). The lower the signal field the longer the battery will power the system. The battery will take 5 times its projected operation to recharge, or 50 hours if completely dead. The 12 volt lead acid battery has a shelf life of 5 years and should be replaced regardless of activity level at that point. When installing a battery backup it is imperative to use the appropriate transformer. The larger transformer will provide the additional output necessary to properly power the transmitter and allow the battery to recharge simultaneously. Failure to do this could result in any or all of these problems: 1. decreased signal field 2. battery may take longer to charge 3. battery may not fully charge 4. battery may drain instead of recharging 5. Light may be green and red at the same time All ICT transmitters that are 12 volt battery backup compatible are equipped with a low voltage detection system. Once the battery is completely charged a microprocessor will check the voltage level of the battery once a minute. If the level of the battery dips between 11 and 9 volts a warning alarm will sound. One single beep once a minute, until the battery has been recharged above 11 volts or the alarm is manually disabled. The low voltage alarm can be manually disabled by disconnecting all power, (AC adaptor & battery backup) for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds reconnect the battery first, then the AC transformer. 74

81 Obsolete Equipment CT4000 Transmitter Top view The CT4000 Transmitter has no frequency switch. Transmitters are factory set to either 10K or 7K. The Frequency of the Transmitter can be determined by removing the top cover and inspecting the inner board. It will either be labeled 7K in big white letters or have no markings indicating that it is 10K by default. The CT4000 has an external adjustment dial labeled with a + and symbol. Turning the dial clockwise to the + with increase the distance the collar activates from the wire. Turning the dial counterclockwise to the will decrease the distance that the collar activates from the wire. The CT4000 has a solid red light to indicate that the system is operating properly. If the red light goes out it is likely a break in the wiring or the transmitter has been damaged by a surge. This light will stay out until the break is repaired. The CT4000 has no audible alarm that will activate if the wiring becomes damaged in its original form. An audible alarm can be added after purchase which will make a high pitched whistling sound if the wire is damaged. The CT4000 is an analog Transmitter, as opposed to all other digital outdoor transmitters. The CT4000 produces a less precise signal, which can create issues when used with newer digital equipment. In order for an digital R21 receiver to work with this model transmitter the collar must be set to the wide setting to account for the different signal the transmitter is producing. The CT4000 has a solid green light that will be lit if the unit is receiving power from the outlet The CT4000 has an external on/off switch which can be used to shut down or turn on the system. The CT4000 operates using a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. The CT4000 also has an optional 6 volt battery backup system that will power the loop if AC power is lost. (see IPSSS) The CT4000, like all outdoor transmitters, must be protected, and grounded by installing some form of surge protection circuitry. (i.e. LP3000, Panamax, or LP4100) 81

The ICT-75 transmitter has an optional 6 volt battery backup system that will power the loop if AC power is lost. (see IPSSS) 3. The ICT-75 Transmitter is a weaker transmitter which can only power wiring systems of less than an acre, and still generate an effective containment signal field. 83

84 The ICT-100 has an audible alarm that will activate if the wiring becomes damaged. ICT-100 Transmitter The ICT-100 Transmitter has no frequency switch that allows the operating frequency to be changed. The ICT-100 Transmitters are factory set to either 10K or 7K. The Frequency of the transmitter is noted on the serial number sticker of the transmitter. The ICT-100 has a solid green light that will be lit if the system is operating properly. If the light is out there is either no power to the transmitter, or the bulb has burnt out. If the light is blinking and the audible alarm is sounding it likely a break in the wiring or the transmitter has been damaged by a surge. The ICT-100 operates using a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. The ICT-100 has a pair of adjustment dials which can precisely control the distance that the collar activates from the wiring system. The numbered dial is the coarse adjustment, and the lettered dial is the fine adjustment dial. 1. The ICT-100 transmitter, like all outdoor transmitters, must be protected, and grounded by installing some form of surge protection circuitry. (i.e. LP3000, Panamax, LP4100) 2. The ICT-100 transmitter has an optional 6 volt battery backup system that will power the loop if AC power is lost. (see IPSSS) 3. On some ICT-100 Transmitters there is a feature known as the Inde-pet switch. This set of 2 switches was designed to give you the option of setting the rate of correction with some of our older receivers. At a faster setting the dog would receive corrections more often, then a slower setting. It is important to note that with the newer series of R-21 collars, the Inde-pet switch must be set to the fast, or down position, if this is no the case the R-21 will not function with an ICT-100 Transmitter. 84

85 The ICT-150 has an audible alarm that will activate if the wiring becomes damaged. ICT-150 Transmitter The ICT-150 Transmitter has a frequency switch that allows the operating frequency to be changed, 10K (up position) to 7K (down position) This allows side by side wiring systems to exist, and not interfere with each systems signal. The ICT-150 has a solid green light to indicate that the unit is getting power and the wiring is intact. If a break in the wiring occurs the green light will begin flashing and the alarm will sound until the system is repaired or unplugged.

These switches also allow each loop to be turned off and on independent of one another. They also allow side by side wiring systems to exist, and not interfere with each systems signal. The ICT- 250 has an audible alarm that will activate if the wiring becomes damaged. The ICT-250 has a solid green light to indicate that the unit is getting power and the wiring is intact. If a break in the wiring occurs the green light will begin flashing, and the alarm will sound until the system is repaired or unplugged. The ICT- 250 operates using a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. The ICT-250, sometimes called the garden system, has 2 separate wire ports. This allows two separate loops of wire to be powered and adjusted independent of one another. The ICT-250 has both coarse and fine signal field adjustment knobs, for each loop which can precisely control the distance that the collar activates from the wiring system The ICT-250, like all outdoor transmitters, must be protected and grounded with some type of surge protection circuitry. (i.e. 2 LP cards, or 2 Jumper cards and an LP4200) The ICT-250 has an internal battery backup circuit that will charge an optional 12volt battery, which can power the loop if the AC power is lost. Once engaged the blinking indicator light will change from green to red to indicate that the battery backup is powering the fence. The ICT-250 does not have a 2 amp fuse that will protect the board if the battery cables are hooked up improperly. Crossing the battery cables when hooking up the battery backup can damage the board. 86

87 AT-880 Indoor Transmitter The AT-880 has an auto reset feature. If power to the transmitter is lost, the signal field will automatically reset to 5 once power has been restored. Be sure to set the AT-880 back to the appropriate setting once power has been restored. To attach the loop wiring to the AT-880 the crimping knob must be removed to expose the loop wire connectors. Once the wires have been attached then the crimping knob can be screwed back on. Make sure the the wires don t bridge when reattaching the crimping knob. The AT-880 is a solid state INDOOR ONLY transmitter. The unit plugs directly into a 110 volt AC outlet, no 12 volt AC adaptor is used. The AT-880 has a green number display to indicate that the unit is getting power from the outlet and is operating properly. Directly below this display is push button signal field adjuster. Hold the button down and the numbers will get progressively higher. As the numbers get higher the signal will increase off the wiring. Signal field settings range from the highest setting of 9, to the lowest setting of 0. 87

88 AT-950 Transmitter The AT-950 transmitter has a unique feature, the A/C switch. This switch controls how the signal is projected off of the wiring system. Use the A setting(left position) when you are trying to keep a pet out of a certain area, staying outside the loop wire (A=avoidance). Use the C setting (right position) when trying to keep a pet within a certain wired area inside the loop wire (C=containment). Please note the AT-950 is an INDOOR ONLY transmitter. The AT-950 transmitter operates using a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. The AT-950 indoor transmitter has an audible alarm that will activate if the wiring becomes damaged.

The Invisible mask Transmitter has no frequency switch that allows the operating frequency to be changed. The Invisible mask Transmitters are factory set to either 10K or 7K. The Frequency of the transmitter is noted on the serial number sticker of the transmitter. The Invisible mask has a single adjustment dial which can precisely control the area that the signal will be blocked from being picked up by the collar. The Invisible mask transmitter has a solid green light that will be lit if the system is operating properly. If the light is out there is either no power to the transmitter, or the bulb has burnt out. If the light is blinking green there is either a break in the wiring or the transmitter has gone bad. The Invisible mask transmitter operates using a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. 1. The Invisible Mask transmitter can be used on both indoor and outdoor systems, as long as the operating frequency of the Invisible Mask matches the frequency of the transmitter powering the loop. 2. The Invisible Mask transmitter, if used outside, must be protected, and grounded by installing some form of surge protection circuitry. (i.e. LP3000, Panamax, LP4100) 3. The Invisible Mask transmitter has an optional 6 volt battery backup system that will power the loop if AC power is lost. (see IPSSS) 4. The Invisible Mask Transmitter is a weaker transmitter then the Mask II. Sometimes the Invisible Mask will not be effective in blocking stray or bleeding signal, in larger areas. In these cases a Mask II should be tried 89

90 Invisible Power Supplemental Signal Supply (IPSSS) The IPSSS can be used as a battery backup for all non 12 volt battery backup systems. It uses a 6 volt lead acid battery and can provide in excess of 5 hours of signal to a system depending on signal field width. When the IPSSS is engaged due to a loss of power to the 110v AC outlet there will be a solid red light. The indicator light on the transmitter it is powering should stay the same as it would under normal operation The IPSSS is Powered with a 12 volt AC adaptor plugged into a 110v AC outlet. Failure to use the appropriate transformer can cause malfunctions of the system. Do not cross the wires running from the IPSSS to the battery. This will damage the IPSSS board and the battery The 6 volt lead acid battery has a shelf life of 5 years and should be replaced regardless of activity level 1. The IPSSS is designed to work with the ICT-700, 150, 100, 75, and 50 transmitters. If used with the CT4000 the IPSSS will reduce the signal field by up to 50%. 2. Cold weather can adversely effect the performance of the IPSSS. It will decrease the length of time it can power the system and increase the length of time needed to recharge the battery. 3. Pleas also note that the battery will take three times the projected operating time to recharge fully. For example a four hour external battery will take about 12 hours to recharge. 4. Charging of the IPSSS occurs while the system is operating normally on AC power. 90

91 R5000 Receiver The R5000 is a solid State factory set collar that is compatible with all ICT series, AT-950, CT4000, and AT-880 Transmitters. The R5000 is no longer manufactured. The R5000 is powered by a 7.5 or 9 volt silver oxide battery. The battery goes in a chamber on the side of the unit, and is held in place by screwing a battery cap into threaded the battery chamber. Batteries for the R5000 should be changed regularly. 7.5 volt batteries every 4 months 9 volt batteries every 2 months When putting in a replacement battery be certain that the negative (-) side is facing down into the battery chamber, and the positive (+) side is facing up to the battery cap. The R5000 is a non digital receiver (unlike the current R21 series) and as a result a few things should be noted. 1. The R5000 will not work with any masking transmitters. 2. The R5000 has no failsafe device as the R21 series does. 3. The R5000 is susceptible to secondary activations, caused by other similar radio signals 4. The R5000 will stop activating when placed directly over the loop wire. The R5000 s settings are all preprogrammed. The settings of each individual unit can be determined by looking at the 3 letter abbreviations on the top of the unit directly below the serial number. The operating frequency of each unit will also be denoted in the same area. 1. If there is a 7K printed on top of the R5000, the unit will work when the transmitter is set to 7K. 2. If there is No 7K notation printed on top of the R5000, the unit is then set to 10K and will work if the transmitter is set to 10K. 91

92 The following is a list of the 6 different letters used to denote each setting of a specific collar. Each collar can be preprogrammed in terms of the following: Output Delay or No Delay Fixed antenna position 1. The first letter will either be an H for High output, or an R for Regular output. a. Regular output collars would typically be used on more shy or timid dogs. b. High output collars would be used on dogs that were more prone to testing the system and needed an extra correction. 2. The second letter will either be a D for Delay or an N for No delay. a. A unit with the Delay setting will have an.8 second delay between the warning beep and the correction. b. A unit with the No Delay setting will beep and correct at the same time the collar picks up the signal from the loop wire. 3. The third letter will either be a V for a Vertical antenna, or an H for a Horizontal antenna. a. The Vertical antenna would be used in most instances as most dogs tended to carry the receiver parallel to the ground. If this were the case the fixed Vertical antenna would pick up the signal more consistently off of the loop wire. b. The Horizontal model is used for dogs that naturally hold their heads high (Great Danes, or Dobermans), or any dog that learned to keep there heads high to avoid the correction. The fixed Horizontal antenna compensates for this and will pick up the signal when the receiver is not parallel to the ground. Typical abbreviations would be: RDV- Regular output, Delay, Vertical HDV- High output, Delay, Vertical HNV- High output, No delay, Vertical HNH- High output, No delay, Horizontal HDH- High output, Delay, Horizontal These are just a few. 92

93 R6500 Receiver The R6500 is a solid state factory set collar that is compatible with all ICT series, AT-950, CT4000, and AT-880 Transmitters. The R6500 is no longer manufactured. The R6500 is powered by a 7.5 or 9 volt silver oxide battery. The battery goes in a chamber on the side of the unit, and is held in place by screwing a battery cap into threaded the battery chamber. The posts for the R6500 had longer threads than other posts that are used for all other receivers. The post inserts on the R6500 are deeper, and these longer threaded posts must be used. Failure to do this may result in the receiver detaching from the nylon or leather strap. Batteries for the R6500 should be changed regularly. 7.5 volt batteries every 4 months 9 volt batteries every 2 months When putting in a replacement battery be certain that the negative (-) side is facing down into the battery chamber, and the positive (+) side is facing up to the battery cap. The R6500 is a non digital receiver (unlike the current R21 series) and as a result a few things should be noted. 1. The R6500 will not work with any masking transmitters. 2.
