While not a solid barrier, the system effectively trains your pet to respect the boundaries. These systems offer flexibility, allowing you to combine different transmitter models for extended coverage. Proper setup and training are essential for the system’s success, ensuring your pet understands and respects the boundaries, creating a safe and enjoyable outdoor experience.
Understanding the Components: Transmitter and Receiver Collar
The Premier Pet Wireless Fence system relies on two key components: the transmitter and the receiver collar. The transmitter serves as the central hub, emitting a radio signal that establishes the circular boundary for your pet. It typically features adjustable range settings, allowing you to customize the size of the containment area to suit your yard. The transmitter also includes controls for adjusting the correction level.
The receiver collar is worn by your pet and is designed to detect the radio signal emitted by the transmitter. When your pet approaches the boundary, the collar emits a warning tone to alert them. If your pet continues past the boundary, the collar delivers a safe but noticeable static correction. The intensity of the correction can often be adjusted based on your pet’s temperament and training progress.
Ensuring a proper fit of the receiver collar is crucial for both comfort and effectiveness. The contact points on the collar must maintain consistent contact with your pet’s skin to deliver the correction effectively. Regular checks and adjustments are necessary to prevent skin irritation and ensure the system functions correctly. Both components work together seamlessly to create a safe and reliable wireless fence system for your pet.
Setting Up the Transmitter: Step-by-Step Instructions
Setting up the transmitter for your Premier Pet Wireless Fence is a straightforward process. Begin by selecting a central location inside your home, preferably near a power outlet.

Next, connect the transmitter to the power adapter and plug it into the electrical outlet. Once powered on, the transmitter will begin emitting a radio signal. Consult the product manual for specific instructions on adjusting the boundary range. This adjustment determines the size of the circular area within which your pet can roam freely.
After setting the desired range, it’s crucial to test the signal strength throughout your yard. Walk the perimeter of the intended boundary with the receiver collar to ensure consistent signal reception. Make any necessary adjustments to the transmitter’s location or range settings to eliminate weak spots. A properly positioned and calibrated transmitter is essential for the effectiveness of your wireless fence system, ensuring your pet remains safely within the designated area. Remember to refer to the manual for detailed diagrams and troubleshooting tips.
Adjusting the Boundary Range and Testing the System
Adjusting the boundary range is a critical step in setting up your Premier Pet Wireless Fence. The transmitter allows you to define the size of the safe zone for your pet, typically up to a certain radius. Refer to your product manual for the specific range capabilities of your model. To adjust the range, locate the control knob or digital settings on the transmitter unit.
Incrementally increase or decrease the range according to your yard size and desired containment area. After each adjustment, it’s essential to test the system thoroughly. Equip the receiver collar and walk the perimeter of the set boundary. Pay close attention to the collar’s indicator light or audible signal, which activates as you approach the boundary zone.
This testing process ensures the signal is consistent and that the boundary is accurately defined. If there are any weak spots or gaps in the signal, reposition the transmitter or fine-tune the range settings until a continuous boundary is established. This careful adjustment and testing will guarantee the effectiveness of the wireless fence in keeping your pet safely within the designated area. Remember to always consult your manual for the most accurate and detailed instructions.
Fitting the Receiver Collar and Ensuring Proper Contact
Properly fitting the receiver collar is paramount for the Premier Pet Wireless Fence to function effectively. The collar should be snug, but not too tight, allowing you to slide one or two fingers comfortably between the contact points and your pet’s neck. Adjust the strap to achieve this fit. Ensuring proper contact is key to delivering the static correction when your pet nears the boundary.
Check the contact points regularly to ensure they are clean and making consistent contact with your pet’s skin. If your pet has long or thick fur, you may need to trim the hair around the contact points to improve contact. When possible, reposition the receiver collar on your pet’s neck every one to two hours to prevent excessive pressure.
Follow the instructions in this manual and check the fit frequently to prevent pressure sores or irritation. If you notice any redness or irritation, discontinue use and consult with your veterinarian. A properly fitted collar ensures both the effectiveness of the wireless fence and your pet’s comfort and safety. Remember, consistent contact is crucial for the system to work as intended.
Training Your Pet to the Wireless Fence
Effective training is crucial for your pet to understand and respect the boundaries established by the Premier Pet Wireless Fence. Begin by introducing your pet to the receiver collar, allowing them to wear it for short periods while associating it with positive reinforcement, such as treats and praise. This helps create a positive association with the collar, rather than fear or anxiety.
Next, introduce your pet to the boundary flags. Walk your pet on a leash around the perimeter, allowing them to see and sniff the flags. When the collar emits a warning tone, gently guide your pet back inside the boundary, offering encouragement and rewards. Repeat this process several times over a few days, gradually increasing the distance from the flags.
Once your pet understands the warning tone, introduce the static correction at the lowest level. If your pet continues to cross the boundary, gradually increase the correction level until they respond by retreating. Always use positive reinforcement when your pet stays within the boundary. Consistency and patience are key to successful training. With proper training, your pet will learn to stay safely within the designated area.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Encountering issues with your Premier Pet Wireless Fence? Let’s address common problems. If the receiver collar isn’t working, first check the battery. Replace it if necessary, ensuring correct installation. Verify the transmitter is powered on and the signal range is appropriately set. Obstacles like metal structures can interfere with the signal, so reposition the transmitter if needed.
If your pet is ignoring the correction, ensure the collar fits snugly and the contact points touch their skin. You might need to trim their fur for better contact. Gradually increase the correction level until your pet responds. If the boundary is inconsistent, test the signal strength at various points to identify weak spots.
False activations can occur due to interference from other electronic devices. Try relocating the transmitter or the collar’s receiver.
