Pet Stop OT300 Transmitter Signal Field Check and Change

   Posted on September 11, 2017   |   by Rich

Tagged with: fence boundaries, fence transmitters, ot-300

Check and adjust your Pet Stop OT300 signal field. This is a basic first step in troubleshooting any dog fence. And if you want to alter the distance from the wire where the pet is blocked, this video will show you how.

As a quick summary, check your signal field at the driveway, so you know exactly where the line is.

Hold the receiver 1′ off the ground and approach the wire from approximately 10′ away.

As soon as the collar beeps, back up to stop the beeping. Repeat this step until you have a good idea where the collar first activates and mark this spot.

Note the distance from the wire – average distance is 5-6′ and decide if you want to raise or lower the distance.

To raise or lower the distance from the wire where the collar will first beep, PRESS the middle button for 2 seconds. Then touch the up or down button to increase or decrease distance. Then repeat the steps above to check your distance. Repeat/adjust as needed.

Pet Stop Charging Station Plus for EcoLite Rechargeable Collars

Pet Stop Charging Station Plus for EcoLite Rechargeable Collars

   Posted on September 11, 2017   |   by Rich

Tagged with: ecolite, receiver collars

If you own the EcoLite rechargeable receiver collar, there are two choices in rechargers. This model is the full featured Charging Station Plus.

The key difference between the two collars is in the feedback provided by the PLUS model featured in this video.

The Plus model tests the EcoLite receiver for all functionality every time the collar is charged, as long as there is some power left in the receiver when it is placed in the charger. To test a receiver with a dead battery, place it in the charge station to charge. When completed (you can test this after 20 minutes of charging) remove the receiver and then replace it back into the charger.

The Charging Station Plus will then test the circuit board and correction output of the receiver.

GPS DOG FENCE versus GPS PET TRACKING

GPS DOG FENCE versus GPS PET TRACKING

   Posted on June 13, 2015    |    by Rich

Tagged with: correction levels, ot-300, receiver collars

Technology in the Hidden Fence industry continues to evolve and we expect the day to come when a GPS Dog Fence may eliminate buried wire.

GPS PET TRACKING or GPS DOG FENCE?

As of June 2015, GPS technology remains far to spotty to trust a shock device on a pet we love. Between trees, weather and satellite intermittent issues, too many variables can interfere with a pet’s necessary consistent experience.

However, Hidden Fence Company has several GPS and Bluetooth devices being tested in the field. We believe the 24/7 ability to track your pet will help keep tracked pets safe.

Current technology may not be useful for actual containment, but there is a growing range of devices which can accurately track your pet, for fun and in case of emergencies. All have annual subscription costs, some as low as $50 per year. Most work well with a smartphone app, some require receiver technology beyond your smartphone.

Here are just a few of the current brands offering related technology:

Some of these products are already small enough to be worn 24/7. One particular product predicts 12 months between battery recharges, permitting the ultimate in set it and forget it (unless you need it) usage. Several of these items will go 3-6 months between recharges.

More to come, including a GPS Tracking product giveaway!

Hidden Dog Fence Alarm Beeping at Transmitter

Hidden Dog Fence Alarm Beeping at Transmitter

   Posted on January 6, 2014   |   by Rich

What does it mean when a Hidden Dog Fence Alarm is sounding? How do I turn off the beeping alarm?

This video shows the alarm and quick solution to stop the the beeping, featuring the Pet Stop OT-200 transmitter:

Pet Stop® Transmitter Wire Break Alarm

Video Runtime: 1:02

0:00 – This is the OT-200 transmitter from Pet Stop.

0:07 – When it’s working properly it should look much like this, with a number at the top which indicates distance from the wire that the collar will activate, and it is not making any alarm because the wire, below, is intact.

0:20 – We’re using this [pointing to green wire] to simulate your perimeter wire, but if your OT-200 is making an alarm like this, than it has a wire break

0:30 – If I disconnect the wire, the signal no longer goes from the transmitter and all the way back to the transmitter,
so the indication is that the wire is broken – something is compromising the connection from the transmitter back to the transmitter.

0:47 – This is how most people would turn it off [pulls out plug] prior to our service call Just pull the power button out from the bottom turns off the alarm

0:56 – Call the Hidden Fence Company and have us come and find your wire break and fix it.[/su_spoiler]

Usually, a sound coming from your wall mounted transmitter is the wire break alarm signaling damage to the perimeter wire. Damage to the perimeter wire renders a dog fence useless and must be repaired properly to assure long term functionality.

The wire break alarm does not know where, why or when, but the two ends of the same wire which plug into the transmitter are not intact, not part of a continuous loop. The signal leaves the transmitter but does not return after.

Another possibility, although infrequently seen, is transmitter failure or damage. The transmitter can be tested by using a short loop test, shown in the same video above. We are using a 8″ piece of wire to simulate the perimeter wire. If the wire break alarm continues with the two ends of the short wire properly inserted, then the transmitter needs to be serviced.
