This unit has been tested and found to comply with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec-
tion against harmful interference in a residential installation. This unit
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this unit does cause harmful interference to radio or television recep-
tion, which can be determined by turning the unit off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the unit and receiver.
• Connect the unit into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician
for assistance.
NOTE

• 1 •
The YardContro+ is an
unobtrusive sound genera-
tor that keeps stray and
unwanted dogs, cats, deer,
and other wild animals, and
even humans out of your
yard and gardens. The unit
is equipped with a 360-
degree motion detection sensory system that senses
motion from all directions up to a 15-foot radius. It creates
an invisible radar zone of approximately 700 sq. feet. When
the unit detects an intrusion, it responds by emitting a high
frequency 120-decibel sound blast to deter the trespasser.
Ultrasonic blasts in the upper end of the frequency range
are intolerable to the above-mentioned animals. When used
as directed, the unit can effectively keep stray animals
away.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
HOW THE RADAR SYSTEM WORKS
Lentek’s Radar Sensor System uses the latest in motion-
sensing technology. After the unit is turned on, please allow
15-20 seconds for the system to activate. Once set, the
radar motion detector will check for motion up to 15’ in all
directions every 5-10 seconds, sending out a preset ultra-
sonic sound pattern and activating the high-intensity
xenon-effect strobe if movement is detected. Activation
period may vary depending on factory settings.
There is a control cover
located on the top of the
unit. It can be removed by
giving it 1/8th of a turn
clockwise, then lifting the
cover off.

CONTROL PANEL
Demo/Test Button
The user can press this button to hear that the ultrasonic
feature is working. This test enables the user to achieve the
desired setting, and to confirm operation of the product. If
the high frequency (50kHz) is being used, it is inaudible to
humans, but it may produce a clicking sound. This clicking
sound confirms proper operation.

Sensitivity Switch
• Slide to HI for maximum coverage
area (up to 15 feet from unit)
• Slide to LOW for smaller
coverage area
• Adjust in-between for desired
coverage area.
Frequency Adjustment
Slide this control to set the ultrasonic fre-
quency in the range most effective to repel your particular
problem animal. The frequency range can be set from low
(8kHz) to high (50kHz), providing an effective ultrasonic
deterrent for most animals. Generally, larger animals (such
as deer) are repelled by lower frequencies, and smaller ani-
mals (such as rodents) are repelled by higher frequencies.
Experiment and fine-tune the unit to determine which fre-
quency works best in your target environment. The xenon-
effect strobe will activate at any frequency.
OPERATION
Note: For an audible intruder alarm, set the slide to the
lowest frequency (8kHz).
Power Switch
Switch to ON to activate the unit.
