1.4 Perimeter Wire Setup
Now, knowing the location of the Base Station and the planning of the wire layout, you can begin to
setup the Perimeter Wire in the Base zone.
1.4.1 Starting Point
 Place the Base Station according to your plan
with the fence towards the inner side of the
lawn;
 Puncture the plastic covering of the perimeter
wire and pull the wire ends with the plot
connector out of the plastic covering; The
connector should be connected to the wire in
the polarity show in Figure 1.11;
 The plastic covering is designed as a dispenser
for the wire; so do not remove the wire spool
from the covering;
 Peg the beginning of the wire to the ground
where the Base Station will be located; be sure
to leave 30cm (12 inches) to close the loop at
the end of the setup (Figure 1.12);
 Start laying the wire to the counterclockwise direction when standing inside the lawn, as show in
Figure 1.13.
 Begin pulling the perimeter wire out of the plastic covering and lay it loosely as you walk along
the area of the lawn to the direction shown in Figure 1.13;
1.4.2 Laying Out the Perimeter Wire
 Start setting the perimeter wire by placing pegs every few meters and at the lawn corners according
to your plan; do not forget obstacles that need to be demarcated while laying the wire.
 After removing enough wire within a given section, use the RoboRuler provided to set the correct
distance from the lawn edge. The RoboRuler is used to help position the perimeter wire along walls,
fences, sidewalk, driveways, flowerbeds and other perimeter zones.
There are two basic measurements that are used on the RoboRuler (Figure 1.13).
The shorter distance is used along perimeter edges where the area outside the immediate
perimeter is free of obstacles and is the same relative height as the perimeter edge or lower
(sidewalk on the same level or flowerbeds).
The longer distance is used along perimeter edges where the area outside the immediate
perimeter has obstacles or differences in the height along the perimeter edge (walls and fences).
Figure 1.11 – Pull out the wire from the
plastic covering – do not remove the
covering; it is designed as a dispenser.
