OPERATING THE COMPANION
Before putting the collar on the dog for the first time,
take a few moments to practice your timing by pressing
the stimulation button as you watch the collar LED.
Activating the Collar. Make sure there are batteries
in the transmitter and collar. Activate the collar by
pressing the on/off switch. The LED will begin to
blink slowly.
Continuous and Momentary Modes. In continuous
mode (C), stimulation starts when you press the button
and stops when you release it. If you hold the button
down for longer than ten seconds, the stimulation will
time out at about ten seconds.
In momentary mode (M), stimulation starts when you
press the button, and stays on only briefly, regardless
of when you release it.
Operating the Continuous Mode. Set the upper
rocker switch on the transmitter to C. Press and hold
the stimulation button. Both the collar and transmitter
LEDs will glow steadily.
After the button has been held down for about ten
seconds, the transmitter LED turns off and the collar
LED returns to blinking once per second. This change
means that time-out has occurred and the collar has
stopped stimulating.
Release the stimulation button, wait a few moments,
and press it again. The collar and transmitter LEDs
will glow steadily again.
Operating the Momentary Mode. Set the upper
rocker switch of the transmitter to M, and the lower
rocker switch to LO. Press and hold the stimulation
button. The collar LED will glow briefly and then
return to blinking once per second. The transmitter
LED will stay on for about 1/2 second.
