Testing the Receiver

In order to make sure the Receiver is
getting signals from the Transmitter, you
may wish to test the Receiver from time
to time.

To test:

1.. Hold the included Test Light across

the Receiver’s contacts. (Refer to
the illustration at the bottom of this
column, the holes in the Test Light
go over the contact tips; make sure
the wire inside the hole touches the
contact tip.)

2.. Press the Stimulation button on the

Transmitter.

3.. The Test Light lights up. The

intensity of the Test Light depends
on the stimulation level. The light is
dim for low stimulation levels and is
brighter for higher stimulation levels.

TRAINING

Always start training your dog with the
lowest stimulation, and increase to a
higher level only if necessary. You will
know when you’ve reached the right
level when your dog responds by
twitching his head, neck, or shoulders,
or by perking up his ears. If the dog
vocalizes, you need to go to a lower
level.

When Ranger is in C

nttiin

s mode,

you control the duration of the
stimulation by the length of time you
press the Stimulation button. For a short
stimulation, press and release the
button. For a longer stimulation, hold the
button down. A maximum of 10
seconds of Receiver stimulation may be
applied before the safety lockout feature

starts.

When Ranger is in M

ntta

arryy mode,

each stim button press (Stim or Alt Stim)
produces one stim at the Receiver collar.
Release the stim button in order to
deliver another momentary (nick, or brief
tap) stim.

Over-Stimulation Protection

The Transmitter can transmit continuously
(Tone or Stim) for up to 10 seconds. If
you attempt to transmit continuously for
more than 10 seconds, the transmitter
enters a 10 second lockout mode during
which time no transmissions are allowed.

Receiver contacts touch
wires inside these holes.
