5. Finding the Right Stimulation
The EDGE RT has a Selector Dial on the top of the
transmitter (1 is the lowest and 8 is the highest).
Remember that you will need to adjust the setting (upward
or downward) depending on your dog's temperament and
threshold for stimulation. Always start at the lowest level
and work your way up. The appropriate level can be found
when the dog responds to the stimulation with a mild
reaction. Also, as the dog's attitude changes, especially
during times of increased excitement or distraction, you
may need to adjust the intensity level.
NOTE:
The stimulation intensity can be adjusted even
while the stimulation is in use.
Attention!
Leaving the receiver in the same location on the dog’s
neck for an extended period of time can cause skin
irritation. If the dog is to wear the receiver for long
periods, occasionally reposition the receiver so that the
contact points are moved to a different location on the
dog’s neck. Make sure you check for skin irritation each
time you use the unit.
