HOW TO LOCATE BREAK IN LOOP ANTENNA WIRE

DO NOT PULL YOUR LOOP ANTENNA OUT OF YOUR TURF/GROUND! THIS MAY COST YOU UNNECESSARY REPAIR EXPENSES! Don’t want the hassle? We will be happy to schedule a service call to solve your problems. Please call 770-277-5959 and ask for service/repairs. A credit card number is required for dispatch; however, we prefer a check as form of payment for services upon completion.

1.  Connect both ends of your twisted boundary wire to the first terminal on your transmitter.

2.  Measure and cut a new piece of boundary wire that is 1/2 the length of you boundary loop.

3.  Connect the new wire to the second terminal on the transmitter.

4.  Locate the halfway point along your boundary loop.

5.  Cut your boundary loop at the halfway point.

6.  Connect the free end of your new piece of wire to either side of your
boundary loop at the half way point.

7.  Turn the system on and check the range of this smaller loop with the receiver
collar.

8.  If there is no improvement in the performance of your system, you may
assume that there is a break in this portion of your boundary. Because there is
a small chance you have more than one break in your loop, you should also
try the same procedure for the other side of your loop.

9.  Once you determine a section of your boundary loop has a break in it, find the
middle of that section and cut the wire. Be sure to re-splice the first cut that
you made and make it waterproof by caulking with silicone.

10.  Connect the new wire to your boundary loop at the point at which you made
the cut in STEP 9.

11.  Turn the system on and check the range of this smaller loop with the receiver
collar.

12.  Repeat STEPS 8 - 11 until you find the damaged section of wire.

13.  Replace damaged wire with new wire. Remember that all wire in your
boundary loop must be the exact same size and type.
