How To Test My PetSafe® Guardian® GPS 2.0 Dog Fence + Tracking Collar for Correction

Start with the collar powered off.

While outside, power the collar on by pressing and holding the power button until you see the Battery Status LED flash green and hear the collar beep.

While outside, within the boundary area, hold the collar with the antenna upward toward the sky. Do not place your hand over the antenna. If you have multiple collars, we recommend testing them at the same time.

Verify that the collar is receiving GPS data. The Signal Status LED will slowly pulse green when searching for GPS and LTE and will turn off when the connection is made. If the collar is unable to connect, the Signal Status LED will slowly blink red.

Walk toward the boundary at a brisk pace until you hear the collar(s) beep or feel the vibration. The beeping and vibration indicate correction.

Use the provided Test Light Tool on your collar Contact Points and the collar set to the highest correction level to confirm it is providing static stimulation.

If you wish to feel the correction, we recommend turning the collar to a low level. Place both Contact Points in your palm and walk briskly toward the boundary. It is not uncommon to be unable to feel the lowest levels of correction. For assistance with changing the correction level, visit How To Change the Correction Levels on My PetSafe® Guardian® GPS 2.0 Dog Fence + Tracking Collar.
