TESTING YOUR RC-8 RADIO COLLAR
Caution: This test generates actual shock pulses so make sure you
remove the collar from your pet and do not unintentionally touch
the shock probes!
Periodically
,
remove the collar from your pet and perform the following
Self Test with the power switch ON. Hold the collar by the case
without touching the shock probes, and press the TEST button. This
initiates a self-test of the battery and shock circuitry, with the following
indications.
TEST LIGHT:
•
If the test light is SOLID Red the battery is OK.
•
If the test light is BLINKING Red the battery is LOW. Replace the
battery soon.
•
If the test light is NOT ILLUMINATED the battery is dead.
TONE SPEAKER:
•
If the speaker produces an audible tone or beep, the shocking
circuit is functioning properly.
•
If there is no tone or beep, the shocking circuit is not working
and the unit should be repaired .
The water resistant casing is moisture sealed for safe operation in most
weather conditions. If the TONE SPEAKER gets wet, you will notice that
the tone output becomes muffled or stops altogether. This is due to water
on the outside of the speaker face. It does not mean that the inner works
have gotten wet. Once the unit dries, the sound will return to normal.
