•   Restrict your dog from situations in which he has a history of misbehaving unless you can supervise 

 

  him and use the SportHunter

®

 1825 for applying tone, stimulation or vibration.

•   If you notice one situation in which your dog misbehaves repeatedly, set up this situation as a 

 

  training session. This will dramatically increase your chances of success.

•   If  your dog has a timid reaction to the tone, stimulation or vibration (especially the first couple of times), 

 

  do not be alarmed. Redirect his attention to a simple and appropriate behavior (i.e. a known command,  

  such as “Sit”). 

•  Never use the SportHunter 1825 to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behavior. If your dog 

 

  exhibits such behavior, contact a professional trainer. Aggression in dogs is the result of many  

  factors – it may be a learned behavior or it may be brought on as a result of fear. Another factor  

  contributing to aggression in dogs is social dominance. Every dog is different.

At this point, your remote trainer is ready to use. The transmitter is factory set to mode 1, but you may 

wish to change the mode to fit your situation. See Step 5, for an explanation of mode options.

 
PROGRAM THE REMOTE TRANSMITTER

 

NOTE: The Transmitter is factory set to mode 1. The mode of the Remote Transmitter can be changed 

to fit your type or style of training. 

TO CHANGE THE MODE:

 

For example, if mode 5 is desired, adjust the Intensity Dial to Level 5. Once the mode button has been 

depressed, the Transmitter Indicator Light will be solid, and once the mode button is released, the 

Transmitter Indicator Light will flash 5 times. However, if you select mode 8 (ID Code) in the 

UP

 position 

or mode 2 in the 

DOWN

 position, the light will remain solid in color once the mode button is released.

NOTE: Modes 1, 3, 4 ,5 and 7 provide 8 levels of stimulation, which correspond to the setting of the 

Intensity Dial. 

Mode 2 provides more “increments” to choose from – a total of 16 levels of stimulation. For example, 

in mode 2 with the Intensity Dial set at 2, the lower button provides level 3 of 16 and the upper button 

provides level 4 of 16.

*  For Two-Dog operation setup refer to Step 7 on page 13.

** An ID Code is the signal identification between the Remote Transmitter and Collar Receiver. Each  

  is programed in 1 of 4,000 ID Codes from the factory. In the rare event that a Remote Transmitter  is  

  sending a signal to more than one Collar Receiver, you can change the Remote Transmitter’s ID  

  Code to prevent this from happening. There are 64 programmable ID Codes available.

1.  Referring to the following  tables, adjust the Intensity  

  Dial and Toggle Switch to the mode you want to use.

2.  Turn the Remote Transmitter over and remove the belt  

  clip (if attached).

3.  Using a pen or the tine on the buckle of your collar  

  strap, depress and release the mode button. When  

  the mode button is pressed, the Transmitter Indicator  

  Light will be solid in color. When it is released, it will  

  flash the mode selected.

TO MANUALLY PROGRAM THE REMOTE TRANSMITTER’S ID CODE FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1 . Turn the intensity dial to level 8, flip the toggle switch up, and then press and release the mode  

  button on the back of your Remote Transmitter. This does not change the mode, so the current mode  

  will still be active after the ID change is complete.

2 . Once  the  mode  button  is  released,  the  green  indicator  light  will  illuminate  and  stay  on  for  

  15 seconds. 

3 . While the green light is on, turn the intensity dial to select the 1st digit of the ID and then press and  

  release the side button. The green light will flash rapidly confirming selection.
