RANGE
All Field & Pro G2 and G2 EXP Series models have a range of up to one mile
except Trashbreaker G2 and G2 EXP, which have a range of up to two miles. All
Sport G3 models have a range of up to half a mile.
Your actual range depends on terrain, weather, vegetation, other radio transmissions
in the area, and other factors. To improve range, the antenna should not touch
your body or anything else while you are transmitting. For the very best range,
hold the transmitter overhead while transmitting.
TRI-TRONICS BEEPER
The Tri-Tronics Beeper lets you know where your bird dog is hunting and when
he goes on point. The Beeper has a wide choice of settings to suit different hunting
styles and individual preferences. You can also keep track of several dogs at one
time by the settings you select.
Your Beeper can be turned on and off from a distance with your G2, G2 EXP, or
Sport Upland G3 transmitter. Therefore, you can leave the Beeper off most of the
time, and only turn it on when hunting conditions require it. If you purchased an
Upland G2 or Upland G2 EXP, or Sport Upland G3 model, your transmitter has
one button specifically for turning the Beeper on and off. If you purchased any
other G2 or G2 EXP Field or Pro Series model, you can turn the Beeper on or
off with any transmitter button when your transmitter dial is set on “A.” If you
purchased a Sport Basic G3 or Sport Combo G3, you cannot turn your Beeper
on or off from a distance, but your Beeper will have all other functions, such as
choice of mode, run and point tones, and volume control, described in this
owner’s guide.

Multi-Dog Intensity Tip. When training more than one dog, check the intensity
dial to be sure you have the intensity set for what you want for the dog you are
about to correct.
Other Intensity Dial Functions. Letters (“N,” “T,” or “A” depending on model)
indicate no-stimulation functions.
“N” – Transmitter is disabled. No tone, buzz, beeper, or stimulation functions are
possible. This setting is intended for times when your transmitter buttons might
be accidentally bumped or pressed.
“T” – The stimulation buttons produce tone from the receiver instead of stimulation.
“A” – Any transmitter button will operate the Beeper. Future accessories will also
be operated with this setting.
No stimulation can be produced by the receiver when the intensity dial is set on
one of the letters. Set the dial on a number when stimulation is desired.
CONTINUOUS AND MOMENTARY STIMULATION
Continuous Stimulation. The trainer controls the timing of “continuous”
stimulation. It stays on while the transmitter button is pressed, up to a “time-out”
of about 9 seconds. If the stimulation times out, restore function by releasing the
button and pressing again. In normal use stimulation does not time out
because corrections are far shorter than 9 seconds. You can also tap the
continuous button repeatedly for a series of corrections.
Momentary Stimulation. The duration of “momentary” stimulation is pre-set.
Momentary stays on only briefly no matter how long the button is pressed. To
produce a series of momentary corrections, press the momentary button repeatedly.
