the compartment removed from the transmitter. Please note that the adjustment screw
is very sensitive and should be adjusted with care! The screw can be turned a maxi-
mum of 4/5 of a turn, and turning it clockwise makes the microphone more sensitive
while counter clockwise makes it less sensitive. FIGURE 3.
If the microphone is set too sensitively, then the dog's breathing and even brush scra-
ping against the transmitter can emit enough sound that the microphone will register it
as a bark, which results in a bark signal in the receiver. If the microphone is set too
insensitively, then it may not register the dog's bark at all and thus won't be registered
by the receiver, even if the dog is actually barking. In some situations, occasional false
barks can be registered, especially when using short-legged dogs in tight, brushy vege-
tation.
The microphone is supplied with an extra protective cover of aluminum, which pre-
vents moisture and other particles from entering into the microphone space. Prior to
each hunt, be sure to check that the protective cover is not damaged. If the cover is
damaged, then it should be removed and replaced with a new one immediately. Extra
covers are included in the package the equipment was bought in, and more can be
ordered from your authorized dealer. REPERTO suggests that other materials for pro-
tecting the microphone should NOT be used.
By using the Tree switch you can determine when the dog has treed its quarry. To
change transmitter type, simply exchange the regular battery card on the transmitter
with a battery card having a built-in Tree switch. The Tree switch emits a rapid, chir-
ping signal when the dog tilts its head back (see: 8. Signal diagram). When this speci-
fic signal is heard from the receiver then it is indicating that the dog has treed its quarry.

8. Signal diagram.

In the signal diagram below each type of signal emitted is shown separately. During
practical use these signal types are combined depending on what activity the dog is
engaged in.
