It is important that you understand the image below before getting started.
ROAMING AREA - Area inside the
Trigger Zone where your dog is free
to play. Capable of expanding up to
500 feet in any direction.
TRIGGER ZONE - Zone located
outside the Roaming Area that forms
the Fence Boundary. May be up to 13
feet wide.
EXCLUSION ZONE - Target areas
on your property where you wish
to restrict your dog’s access, such as
a flower bed, pool or patio. Up to 4
Exclusion Zones can be created.
Congratulations and thank you for choosing the Custom-Shape Wireless Dog
Fence from Havahart® Wireless the leading innovator of digital wireless
fence solutions.
The Quick Setup Guide can help you get your wireless fence up and running quickly
and efficiently. It is not a replacement for the instruction manual. IT IS IMPORTANT
that you read and follow all safety guidelines and directions detailed in the
Instruction Manual to ensure the safe and effective operation of your system.
Installing the Bases:
• The best choice to place your Bases is on
windows or outer walls in the furthest corners
of your home, near 120V AC power outlets,
spaced as far apart as possible, but a minimum
of 20 feet apart.
• If Bases must be in the same area, such as a
garage, it is better to place Bases on adjacent
walls than on the same wall.
• DO NOT place the Bases within 3 feet of metal
objects, such as mirrors, microwaves, home
appliances, an electric power meter, air conditioning units, metal
grates/fences, metal screened porches, downspouts, large bushes or other objects
immediately outside the wall. Move the Bases so that they have the best communication
path to the outside.
• Position the Master Base A (see USB port on bottom) in an interior corner wall near the
area where your dog spends most of his time outdoors. Using the removable wall-mount
adhesive strips (see Figures below), place it approximately 6 feet off the floor. Do NOT
plug it in at this time.
• Attach the other 3 Bases to walls in the remaining 3 corners of your home. Do NOT plug
them in at this time.

NOTE:
Charge the Controller and both RCR123 Batteries for 3 hours prior to use (see
Recharging a Battery in the Instruction Manual). Connect the Controller, via the USB
Cable, to your computer while it is turned on or to the USB AC Adapter and wall outlet.
If a Found New Hardware screen appears when you connect the Controller to your
computer, press Cancel.

Testing the Trigger Zone:
• To confirm that the location of the actual boundary
is correct, Test Your Trigger Zone in 2 Ways - It is
necessary to perform both steps for complete
verification.
• In both cases, make sure the Collar is set to Tone Only.
Extend your arm down by your side and hold the Collar
by the Grey Battery Housing so that you can see the
Collar Light (see Figure 6.0). Make sure to keep the
Collar between your body and the Bases as your
body may affect the signal and cause the boundary
to shift (see Factors Affecting Signal Strength in the
Instruction Manual).
Step 1:
• Walk a parallel path to your boundary, 10 feet inside
the flag line, at the same SLOW deliberate pace and
in the same manner in which you recorded the Trigger
Zone while gently moving the Collar to keep it awake.
• The Collar alarm should not tone as you walk along the
inside of your boundary. If the Collar alarm tones during
your Trigger Zone test, make a note of the location and
continue walking inside your Fence Boundary.
• Once complete, look at the Wireless Fence Tracker. The
path that you walked should be represented by little red
circles (see Figure 7.0).
• The red circles should closely, but not perfectly run
parallel to the green line .
• If you notice any extreme dips, loops or crossovers in
your fence, you may you may want to Remove your
Fence and re-record. In most cases, you may need to
simply move flags one way or the other to be closer
to the boundary. If the Fence Boundary is still not within
your level of tolerance and if re-recording does not solve
the problem (consult your Troubleshooting Guide), it
may be necessary to reposition one or more of your
Bases so that there are less signal limiting obstructions
(see Page 8 in the Instruction Manual) between the Fence
Boundary and your Bases (see Factors Affecting Signal
Strength in the Instruction Manual).

Testing the Trigger Zone:
• To confirm that the location of the actual boundary
is correct, Test Your Trigger Zone in 2 Ways - It is
necessary to perform both steps for complete
verification.
• In both cases, make sure the Collar is set to Tone Only.
Extend your arm down by your side and hold the Collar
by the Grey Battery Housing so that you can see the
Collar Light (see Figure 6.0). Make sure to keep the
Collar between your body and the Bases as your
body may affect the signal and cause the boundary
to shift (see Factors Affecting Signal Strength in the
Instruction Manual).
Step 1:
• Walk a parallel path to your boundary, 10 feet inside
the flag line, at the same SLOW deliberate pace and
in the same manner in which you recorded the Trigger
Zone while gently moving the Collar to keep it awake.
• The Collar alarm should not tone as you walk along the
inside of your boundary. If the Collar alarm tones during
your Trigger Zone test, make a note of the location and
continue walking inside your Fence Boundary.
• Once complete, look at the Wireless Fence Tracker. The
path that you walked should be represented by little red
circles (see Figure 7.0).
• The red circles should closely, but not perfectly run
parallel to the green line .
• If you notice any extreme dips, loops or crossovers in
your fence, you may you may want to Remove your
Fence and re-record. In most cases, you may need to
simply move flags one way or the other to be closer
to the boundary. If the Fence Boundary is still not within
your level of tolerance and if re-recording does not solve
the problem (consult your Troubleshooting Guide), it
may be necessary to reposition one or more of your
Bases so that there are less signal limiting obstructions
(see Page 8 in the Instruction Manual) between the Fence
Boundary and your Bases (see Factors Affecting Signal
Strength in the Instruction Manual).

Step 2:
• Walk toward the boundary while gently moving the Collar to keep it awake until the Collar
beeps and the Collar Light flashes red. To confirm the boundary location, step back until the
Collar stops beeping and then walk forward in the same direction until the Collar beeps and
the Collar Light flashes red again (see Illustration H).
• Test the Trigger Zone in multiple locations (see Illustration E-2).
• If necessary, move the flags to the correct location. If not satisfied with the location, you may
need to Remove your Fence and re-record.

• Be sure your dog is safely within the Roaming Area and the Correction Level is
set to Tone Only.
• With your dog standing comfortably, position the Collar high on your dog’s neck,
underneath the chin with the Probes facing upward and centered on your dog’s neck.
The Havahart® logo should be right side up when you look at your dog.
• Make sure the Probes maintain contact with skin.
- Collar is factory installed with long Probes for thick or long-haired breeds.
- Short Probes for short-haired dogs are included.
- To change the Probes, simply unscrew the long Probes and replace them.
Finger-tighten the Probes. Do not over tighten.
• Adjust the Collar to fit snugly but not tightly. You should be able to slide the tip
of one finger between your dog’s coat and one of the Probes on the Collar. The tip
of your finger should not be able to slip between the two easily, but with some
effort. It should be a tight squeeze (see Illustration I). Separately, you should be able to
slide one finger between the strap of the Collar and the back of your dog’s neck.

NOTE: It may be necessary to trim the hair around the Probes to ensure reliable contact.
NOTE: If your dog is going to continue to grow or grows a long winter coat, leave extra room
before trimming off the excess.
• Once Collar is adjusted to the correct length, remove the Collar and trim the excess
using scissors (see Illustration J).
NOTE: If you have any Exclusion Zones, perform similar Trigger Zone testing.
