Important: The Stimulation Mode Switch (5F) can alter the response of the Collar

Receiver. When this Stimulation Mode Switch is set to “ ’’ or “

+

’’, the Collar

Receiver will respond according to the Function and Response Table above. However, if the

 

Stimulation Mode Switch is set to “ ’’, this setting will override the Stimulation

Stimulation

Level 1 function. In this case, no Stimulation will be delivered, and the Collar Receiver will

NOT beep or vibrate; it will only make the ticking sound that normally indicates Stimulation.

To Set the Stimulation Level

Read all steps before attempting to set the

5D

Stimulation Level.

 

1.

Remove the clear plastic cover with a coin to

 

expose the Stimulation Level Button (5D).

2.

With the battery installed, press the Stimulation

 

Level Button and release when the Receiver

 

Indicator Light lights up (5E).

STEP :: 06

Set the Boundary Width and Test the Collar Receiver

The Range Switch on the side of the Fence Transmitter has two settings. Set the Range Switch to LOW if the amount of wire used for your property is less than 4,400 feet. Set the Range Switch to HI if you used between 4,400 and 8,600 feet of wire.

Use the Range Adjuster knob to set the width of the Warning Zone and Stimulation Zone

(6A). Set the Boundary Width as wide as possible to give your dog the widest Warning and Stimulation Zones without reducing the Boundary Area too much.

Note: The Range Adjuster knob does not change the Stimulation Level.

CAUTION The Receiver Collar should NOT be on your dog when the system is tested. Your dog may receive an unintended correction.

Increase the Stimulation Level by pressing and

 

releasing the Stimulation Level Button within 5

 

seconds of the previous series of flashes.

5.

After setting the Stimulation Level, replace the

 

cover to protect the Stimulation Level Button.

To identify the Warning and Stimulation Zones, make sure the Collar Receiver’s battery is

 

6B

properly installed, the Stimulation Level is set at 2 or above, and the Test Light contacts are

 

held to the Contact Points (6B). Walk toward the Boundary Wire holding the Collar Receiver at

 

your dog’s neck level (6C) until the Receiver Collar beeps (6D).

 

Note: The Collar Receiver is waterproof, which can make the beep hard to hear.

The Stimulation Levels increase in strength from 1 to 5. Pushing the Stimulation Level Button while the Collar Receiver is on level 5 will cause the Collar Receiver to go back to level 1. Refer to the Function and Response Table, on the following page, to choose the Stimulation Level that best fits your dog.

The Collar Receiver is equipped to automatically increase the level of Stimulation the longer your dog remains in the Stimulation Zone if the collar is set at level 2 or above.

The Receiver Indicator Light acts as a low battery indicator, flashing every 4 to 5 seconds when a replacement is required.
