DESCRIPTION OF TRANSMITTER PARTS

Care for LCD Transmitters in Cold Temperature

In cold temperatures (10 degrees F or

below), the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) on
your transmitter may be dim or slow to respond.
Wait until the display becomes visible before
selecting any training level.

Even though the LCD screen might be dim or

slow to respond, the transmitter will still function
properly when you push the Nick or Constant
button. In the occurrence of extremely cold
weather, the LCD screen might take a moment to
respond causing the intensity level to freeze at
that current level. In this situation, if you turn the
Rheostat Intensity Dial, and the intensity level on
the screen does not increase, yet you emit an
electrical stimulation, the level will be in
agreement with the new changed intensity level.

In this situation, it is ideal to either wait until

your transmitter is back to working order before
emitting a correction, or while holding the
constant button down slowly turn the Rheostat
Intensity Dial while watching your dog’s
reaction. Do not turn the Rheostat Intensity Dial
at a rapid increase because the collar/receiver
will emit a static correction based on the level of
the Rheostat Intensity Dial, which might not be
correctly reflected on the LCD screen.

Transmitter Indicator Light (LED Window)

The transmitter LED indicator light is located

near the Rheostat Intensity Dial. It will flash
every 2 seconds when the transmitter has been
turned on. The color of the light indicates the
status of battery life. It flashes green when the
battery is fully charged and turns to amber when
the battery is at medium charge. It is acceptable
to charge your unit even at medium charge
without any damage incurred to your collar.
When the transmitter indicator emits a blinking
red light, the battery needs to be recharged.

(Green = full charge, Amber = medium

charge, Red = needs charge).
