Components How the System Works Indoor Shields® Plus Transmitter The transmitter is the heart of the system. It produces a signal that communicates with your pet’s Computer Collar® to keep your pet away from unwanted areas. The signal can be delivered through a wireless sphere that is transmitted from the transmitter or by up to 150 feet of wire. The lightweight, portable design is easy to use and powered by an internal rechargeable battery pack.
Operating Guide Important: To ensure your pet does not receive an unintended correction, make sure your pet is not wearing the Computer Collar® unit when turning ON or adjusting the Indoor Shields® Plus transmitter. 1. Charge the Indoor Shields® Plus transmitter • Lift the rubber cover protecting the charging jack located on the Indoor Shields® Plus transmitter. Connect the charger connector to the charging jack with the keyed side facing down.
Wireless Option 1. Adjust signal field range • Determine the desired location and the signal field range required. -Wireless: 1.5 ft. minimum radius up to 6 ft. maximum radius. • 2. 3. With the unit ON, press the RANGE UP (+) or the RANGE DOWN to increase or decrease the signal field range. The first indicator equals 1 ft. radius of signal fie. Each additional segment represents approximately 6 inches radius of range.
WIRED OPTION You can create a signal field using up to 150 feet of boundary wire (14 – 20 gauge). The recommended wire can be purchased from your local Invisible Fence® Brand dealer. Visit www.invisiblefence.com to find an authorized dealer in your area. 1. Signal Field Wire Preparation • When using the wire option it will be required to start at a minimum range setting of 2 segments. A setting below 2 segments will not produce a signal field great enough to be picked up by the Computer Collar® Unit.
beeping will be accompanied by a correction. • If the Computer Collar® Unit fails to beep, see the Troubleshooting chart found on page 11. •Adjust the signal field range and boundary wire position until the desired area is covered. 4. Install the Boundary Wire • The avoidance wire may be installed under furniture, cabinets, islands, rugs, carpets or underneath the floor (if you have access via crawlspace or basement).

Training Guide For pets trained to the Invisible Fence® Brand system • Use Invisible Fence® Brand training flags to mark the outside of the signal field range. This gives your pet a visual marker, similar to how they learned the signal field range of the outdoor pet containment system. • Allow your pet to enter the protected area. By already being familiar with the training flags and the warning beep, your pet should react immediately by moving away from the protected area.
Troubleshooting • • Indoor Shields® Plus does not appear to work • • • • • LCD is black Check for low battery (audible chirp once every 30 seconds and flashing LCD). If low battery is indicated, plug the AC adapter into the unit and charge for 2 hours. Check/replace the Power Cap® Battery in the Computer Collar® unit. The Indoor Shields® Plus transmitter power could be completely drained. Apply power to the Indoor Shields® Plus transmitter using the AC adapter to verify operation.
