How To Change The Stimulation Intensity; The Handheld Transmitter Lcd - Dogtra ARC Guide D'utilisation

1. Attach the charging cables to both the transmitter and
receiver(s), as shown on page 16.
2. Plug the charger into a 120-volt wall outlet or if using the
accessory field charger, plug into a cigarette lighter only for
Lithium-Polymer batteries (Use a 230-volt European charger
for Europe.). When properly plugged in, all indicator lights
should glow red. During the charging process, the unit will
shut off. Once the battery cable is unplugged from the unit after
a full charge, you will need to turn the unit on again before use.
3. The Lithium-Polymer battery is fully charged within
2-hours. The lights will stay red during the charging process.
The red light will change into a steady green light when the
battery is fully charged (When you disconnect the charger after
finishing the charge, you will need to restart the unit).
4. After charging, cover the battery charging receptacles with
the rubber plugs on the transmitter and receiver/collar.
NOTE : Only use Dogtra-approved batteries, chargers, and
accessories for your Dogtra e-collars. When a charger is not
in use, disconnect it from the power source.

8. HOW TO CHANGE THE STIMULATION INTENSITY

The Dogtra ARC has a rheostat intensity dial on the top of the
transmitter (0 is the lowest and 127 is the highest). Remember
that you will need to adjust the setting (upward or downward)
depending on your dog's temperament and threshold for
stimulation. Also, as the dog's attitude changes, especially
during times of increased excitement or distraction, you might
need to adjust the intensity level.
NOTE : The stimulation intensity can be adjusted even while
the stimulation is in use.

9. THE HANDHELD TRANSMITTER LCD

The LCD screen indicates the stimulation level (0-127).
The LCD battery life indicator shows 3 bars at full charge, 2
bars at medium charge and 1 bar when it needs to be charged.
The battery life indicator only specifies the remaining charge
for your transmitter. To find the remaining charge for your
receiver, observe the LED indicator on the receiver/collar.
Green = full charge
Amber = medium charge
Red = needs charge
Care for LCD Transmitters in Cold Temperature
In cold temperatures (10 degrees F or below), the Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD) on your transmitter may be dim or slow
to respond. Wait until the display becomes visible before
selecting any training level.
Even though the LCD screen might be dim or slow to respond
when you push the Nick or Constant button, the transmitter
will still function properly. In the occurrence of extremely cold
weather, the LCD screen might take a moment to respond
causing the intensity level to freeze at that current level.
