INSTALLATION

Preparation

1.  Make sure that your Receiver and Transmitter are fully 

  charged.
2.  Make sure that the Receiver is married to the Transmitter 

  (follow instructions in the Tri-Tronics Owners Guide

  and/or that come with the Receiver).
Remove Battery Pack from the Receiver

3.  If there is a collar strap attached to the Receiver remove it. 
4.  Unscrew the two battery pack access screws as far as  

  you can.
5.  Separate the Battery Pack from the Receiver.
6.  The battery pack screws are intentionally “captured” in  

  the battery pack so that they don’t get lost in normal 

  battery replacement. You need to remove these screws  

  completely in order to install the Tracer

TM

 using the longer  

  screws that come with the Tracer

TM

. To completely remove  

  the battery pack screws use the threaded end of the pro- 

  vided Tracer

TM

 screw to apply firm pressure against the  

  threaded end of the battery pack screw. Maintain this  

  pressure and turn the battery pack screw counterclock- 

  wise until it passes the “capture” point and comes out. 
Assemble the Tracer

TM

 to the Receiver

7.  Use the new longer receiver screws provided in the  

  Tracer

TM

 package and screw them into the battery pack  

  in place of the screws that were removed. Apply moder- 

  ate pressure as you turn them clockwise and they will  

  pop through the capture point in the battery pack.
8.  Place the Tracer

TM

 on the battery pack first and push the  

  screws through the holes.
9.  Then place the receiver onto Tracer

TM

 with the contacts  

  inserted into the rectangular holes making sure that  

  the screws are aligned with the screw holes in the 

  Tracer

TM

 and the receiver.

10. Align all three pieces and hold them together very firmly  

  to compress the sealing gaskets. Push the screws in  

  firmly while turning them in a clockwise direction to  

  tighten them. Alternate tightening each screw a few 

  turns at a time until the entire unit is tight with the   

  screws are firmly set.
11. When you have completed the Tracer

TM

 assembly process  

  the receiver will automatically be switched 

  on. You can confirm this by observing 

  the receiver indicator light. It will 

  flash green twice per second every 

  four seconds when the receiver is 

  on and charged.
12. Your Tracer

TM

 is now ready to use.

OVERVIEW:

 The Tracer

TM

  is  a  lightweight,  very  brilliant,  LED  light 

device that lets you know where your dog is after dark. It is available in 

several colors and has a choice of two light modes, blinking and steady.  

By using differing combinations of light color and mode you can identify 

multiple dogs. Also, you can leave it on for the whole hunt, or switch it 

on only when needed.
The Tracer

TM

 can be used with any Tri-Tronics receiver that has three 

“belt loops” securing the collar strap and is compatible with any G3 or 

G2 training system. Older Tri-Tronics models with only two “belt loops” 

or with contact points that screw through the collar strap cannot use the 

Tracer

TM

.

With most of our remote trainer models, you can turn your Tracer

TM

 on 

and off remotely at the full range of your unit (e.g., ½ mile,1 mile, or even 

2 miles for the Trashbreaker). With our Sport Basic and Sport Combo 

models, you can turn the Tracer

TM

 on only from 2 inches away.

Your Tracer

TM

 fits between your receiver and receiver battery pack and is 

fully waterproof.  It takes its power from the receiver battery. The effect 

of Tracer

TM

 operation on receiver battery life is covered at the end of this 

manual.
The Tracer

TM

 has its own operating system that is separate from the re-

ceiver  operating  system.    Therefore,  the Tracer

TM

  and  receiver  can  be 

turned on and off without affecting the on/off status of each other.  (Note, 

however, that the receiver must be “on” if you wish to switch the Tracer

TM

 

on and off remotely.)  Because the operating systems are separate, the 

Tracer

TM

 cannot affect the operation of your receiver.
