Location Alerts

Location alerts notify you when your dogs enter or exit a

particular location. You can create a custom geofence or use a

radius around your current location.

A geofence is an invisible boundary around an area and is

created using points on the map. The virtual boundaries of a

geofence are accurate up to approximately 3 m (10 ft.).

Geofences perform best when sized to cover an area

encompassing an average sized backyard (approximately

¼ acre).

Setting Location Alerts

Select Location Alerts > Add Alert.

Select an option:

• To create a geofence alert, select Geofence, select a

point for the first corner of the geofence, select Use, and

select additional points to define the geofence boundary.

You must select at least 3 points to create a geofence

alert.

• To create a radius alert, select Radius, select the unit of

measurement, and enter the radius distance.

Disabling Dog Data Broadcast

By default, the handheld device broadcasts dog data to

compatible devices. You can disable data broadcasting to keep

your data from being seen on other compatible devices. See the

owner's manual for your compatible device for more information.

Select Setup > System > Broadcast Dog Data > Off.

Dog Training

You should research and investigate the training methods best

suited for you, your dog, and your needs. This manual provides

some basic guidelines for training, but each dog has unique

training needs.

When used properly, the Alpha training system is a very

effective training tool to aid your dog in reaching its full potential.

The use of the training system should be part of an overall

training program.

Begin training your dog on a leash, without the Alpha training

system. You should train your dog how to heel, sit, and come to

you. After the dog understands these three basic commands,

you can begin training with the dog collar device and the leash.

Finally, when the dog consistently obeys commands using the

leash and collar, you may be able to remove the leash to train

with only the dog collar device.

NOTICE

Selecting and Installing the Contact Points

For best results, select the correct contact points based on your

dog's coat.

Select the correct contact point length for your dog's coat

type:

• For dogs with thicker coats, use the longer contact points.

• For dogs with shorter coats, use the shorter contact

points.

If necessary, use the included wrench to remove the contact

points.

Twist the contact points into the collar.

Tighten with the included wrench, but do not overtighten.

When you put the collar on the dog, make sure the contact

points are tight against the neck.

Removing the Contact Points

When you are not training the dog using the training keys,

remove the contact points.

Use the included wrench to remove both contact points.

Place the cap over the contact point holes.

Training Methods

NOTE: Training features are not available in all areas for

tracking collars.

Momentary stimulation: Applies a brief stimulation when you

press the training key, regardless of how long the key is

depressed.

Continuous stimulation: Applies stimulation to the dog the

entire time you press the training key, for a maximum of 8

seconds. Your stimulations should typically be much shorter

than 8 seconds.

Tone: Activates an audible tone the entire time you press the

training key.

Vibration: Applies vibration to the dog the entire time you press

the training key, for a maximum of 8 seconds. The

effectiveness of vibration may vary based on the dog's

temperament and experience.

Linear and Traditional Stimulation

You can use linear or traditional stimulation to customize your

training experience. The default intensity method is linear, which

allows progressive stimulation from level 1 to level 18.

Traditional stimulation allows you to make quick changes using

low, medium, and high settings within predetermined stimulation

levels (1 through 6).

Choosing the Correct Intensity Level

Set the intensity to the lowest level

Keys, page

7).

Select a training key.

Observe the dog for a reaction, such as a head shake, neck

movement, or just a change in expression.

Sometimes dogs will vocalize due to the surprise of the

electrical stimulation. If the dog vocalizes more than once,

the intensity level is too high for beginning training.

If there is no reaction, increase the intensity level by one level

until the dog has a slight but recognizable reaction to the

stimulation.

The intensity level that causes a slight but recognizable reaction

is your dog's baseline level for beginning collar training. You do

not need to, and should not, apply this intensity selection test

again.

After you begin training, the dog's performance guides your

intensity selection. As the dog advances in training, you may

need to change the level depending upon the training situation.
