thicknesses. For single-ply collars, mount the recessed holes of the CollarBone
against the collar strap and for double-ply collars, place the flat side of the
CollarBone against the collar strap. See the illustration on page 5.
Contact Posts: The receiver comes with a set of contact posts. Your DogWatch
Dealer will determine the correct set based on your dog's neck shape, coat, and skin
sensitivity. The posts must make contact with the skin in order for the dog to feel the
correction. In certain cases, your dealer may recommend clipping some of the hair
around the contact posts so that they can touch the skin more easily. Use care if you
find it necessary to tighten the contact posts with the collar wrench, as over-
tightening could cause damage to the receiver.
Antenna: The receiver's omni-directional antenna design assures optimal reception
from the signal field.
Test Light: The test light allows you to test the receiver.
Hold the test light over the contact posts as shown in
Figure 3 and carry the receiver into the signal field a few
feet from the ground. When the receiver picks up the
signal from the boundary wire, the audible warning will
sound and the test light will come on when you enter the
correction zone.
Status Light The light continuously monitors your receiver
and provides these features.
Start-Up
When you first insert the battery into your receiver, the status light will
I
flash red and green. This indicates that the receiver has started properly. Once
started, the status light will continue to flash green once every 30 seconds
indicating normal operation. In the event that the light does not flash, check the
battery to be sure that it has been inserted properly.
(see Page 4).
Training Level Indicator
When programming the
I
training level of your receiver, the status light will flash
green in conjunction with audible beeps. The number
of flashes will equal the training level you have chosen.
Signal Field Indicator
When testing the receiver in
I
the signal field the status light will flash green when the
receiver is in the audible zone and will flash green and
red when the receiver is in the correction zone.
Correction lert
You will be able to tell if your pet
I
has tested the boundary by looking at the status light.
The status light will double flash green every 30
seconds during the 24-hour period after the dog has
entered the boundary area.
Battery Indicator
This feature monitors the voltage
I
level of the battery. Once the receiver detects that the
battery has reached a low voltage level, the status light
will change from the normal blinking "green" every 30
seconds to blinking "red" every 10 seconds. This
indicates that your battery is close to the end of its useful life and you should
change the battery within the next 3-4 days.
See page 7 for how to change your battery and reset your receiver.
