Turning the VHF Transmitter On
and Off
The steps involved in turning a collar’s VHF transmitter on and off may differ
from other VHF transmitters.
IMPORTANT: Unlike some VHF transmitters, the magnet must not be attached to
a VHF collar when not in use.
NOTE: Some Lotek VHF collars are fitted with a time collar-release mechanism.
This mechanism is also turned on and off using a magnet. For more information,
see the user manual that came with the time collar-release mechanism.
2.1.
Before You Begin
Before turning a VHF collar on or off:
Ensure that you have a magnet available
Your VHF receiver is turned on and tuned to the VHF frequency, and
If your VHF collar has been programmed with behaviours, refer to your
order summary to determine what time, and if necessary, what day of
the week, the VHF transmitter should be turned on.
