Reset the Receiver Collar
To reset the Receiver Collar to work with a new Remote Transmitter or to re-programme
a new Receiver Collar to work with your existing Remote Transmitter:
1. Turn the Receiver Collar off.
2. Press and hold the On/Off Button until the Receiver Indicator Light comes on and
the Receiver Collar beeps 5 times.
3. Continue to hold the On/Off button until the Receiver Indicator Light has turned off.
4. Press and hold the Upper Button on the Remote Transmitter until the Receiver
Indicator Light fl ashes 5 times. You may need to hold both units 2-3 feet from each
other before this occurs. Once the Receiver Indicator Light has fl ashed fi ve (5) times,
the Receiver Collar has been reset. If the Receiver Indicator Light does not fl ash 5
times, start again and repeat the process.
Understanding the Remote Transmitter
To train using the Tone Button:
The Remote Training Collar comes with two tones. A “Good Dog” Tone and a “Bad
Dog” Tone. Once associated with actions, required responses to commands are rewarded
by the “Good Dog” Tone and unwanted ones stopped by the “Bad Dog” Tone. These
tones or sounds emitted by the Receiver Collar, for some dogs, can be just as effective
as the stimulation and the aim in using the collar is to work towards using tones only,
effectively.
To train using the Stimulation Button:
Used together with the lead and correct training approaches, low-level stimulation is the
most effective way to train your dog before you progress to the use of only Audible Tones.
With this approach you control the timing and level of the stimulation being applied to
your dog. Using the Recognition Level determined before you begin training, ensures that
you are working at a level your dog notices but is not concerned or stressed by.
With the Remote Training Collar, the stimulation stays on as long as the Stimulation
Button is pressed up to a maximum of 8 seconds. If this button is pressed longer than
8 seconds, the Remote Transmitter will “time-out,” the Transmitter Indicator Light
will turn off, and stimulation will no longer be delivered to your dog. This is a safety
feature in the Remote Training Collar. If the Remote Transmitter times out, release the
Stimulation Button and press it again to deliver stimulation.
The most effective way to use the Remote Training Collar is by tapping the Stimulation
Button for one or two seconds rather than holding it down for longer periods of time.
Note: For either one or both of these training methods to be effective, they must be used
consistently along with the command you are trying to teach your dog.
