Trasmettitore (telecomando)

The remote transmitter is designed for comfortable handling with large, glove-friendly rubber buttons. It allows you to control the receiver collar from a distance of up to 600 yards (550 meters). The image shows the remote transmitter alongside the receiver collar.

The transmitter features a durable rubber-coated antenna and a convenient lanyard for secure carrying. This image highlights the remote with its attached lanyard.

Collare ricevitore

The receiver collar is submersible and genuinely waterproof, making it suitable for use in various environments. It is small, lightweight, and rechargeable. The image points out the magnetic induction power switch on the receiver.

Guida all'installazione

1. Ricarica dei dispositivi

Both the transmitter and receiver are equipped with rechargeable batteries. Use the provided charger to fully charge both units before first use. A full charge typically takes a few hours.

• Collegare il caricabatterie a una presa di corrente.
• Plug the charging cable into the charging ports on both the transmitter and receiver.
• The indicator lights will show charging status (refer to specific light behavior in the full manual if available, otherwise assume standard red/green).

2. Turning On/Off (Magnetic Induction)

The AT-918C utilizes a magnetic induction power switch for both the transmitter and receiver. To turn on or off, bring the magnetic induction points of the transmitter and receiver together, as if making them "kiss." This innovative method improves reliability.

This image shows the location of the magnetic induction power switch on the remote transmitter.

3. Montaggio del collare

• Select the appropriate length of correction prongs for your dog's coat type (shorter for short coats, longer for thick coats).
• Attach the prongs securely to the receiver.
• Place the receiver collar around your dog's neck so that the contact points touch the skin.
• Adjust the TPU strap to a snug fit. You should be able to fit one or two fingers comfortably between the strap and your dog's neck. The collar should not be too loose, as this can reduce effectiveness and cause rubbing.
• Trim any excess strap if necessary.

4. Testing the Collar

Before placing the collar on your dog, test the functions to ensure they are working correctly.

• Accendi sia il trasmettitore che il ricevitore.
• Attach the test light tool (included in the kit) to the correction prongs on the receiver.
• Press the beep, vibration, and static shock buttons on the transmitter. The test light should illuminate when the static shock button is pressed, and you should hear the beep and feel the vibration.

Istruzioni per l'uso

Training Modes and Levels

The AT-918C offers three primary training modes: Beep, Vibration, and Static Shock. Each mode, except Beep, has adjustable intensity levels.

• Funzione segnale acustico: Provides an audible tone. Often used as a warning or positive reinforcement signal.
• Funzione di vibrazione: Delivers a non-harmful vibration. Adjustable through 9 levels of intensity.
• Static Shock Function: Delivers a static correction. Adjustable through 9 levels of intensity. Always start at the lowest level and increase only if necessary.

Regolazione dei livelli di intensità

Use the dial on the transmitter to select the desired intensity level for vibration and static shock. Levels range from 1 (lowest) to 9 (highest). It is recommended to find the lowest effective level for your dog.

Auto Anti-Bark Function

The receiver collar features an automatic anti-bark function. When activated, the collar will automatically deliver a correction (typically a warning beep followed by vibration or static shock) if it detects excessive barking from your dog, even without remote operation.

Portata remota

The system has a remote control range of up to 600 yards (550 meters) in open areas. Environmental factors such as terrain, weather, and electromagnetic interference can affect the actual range.

Effective Training Guidelines

For best results, use the Aetertek AT-918C collar as part of a comprehensive training program. Consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement are key.

This image illustrates common undesirable dog behaviors that can be addressed with proper training, including excessive barking, digging, and food aggression.

This image demonstrates positive outcomes of effective dog training, showing dogs that are well-behaved, responsive to commands, and engaged in appropriate activities.

• Start with Basic Commands: Ensure your dog understands basic commands like "sit," "stay," and "come" before introducing the collar for more complex issues.
• Introduce the Collar Gradually: Let your dog wear the collar for short periods without activation so they associate it with comfort, not correction.
• Trova il livello giusto: Begin with the lowest vibration or static level. Observe your dog's reaction; a slight twitch or ear movement indicates the level is noticeable. Avoid levels that cause yelping or extreme distress.
• Timing is Crucial: Deliver the correction immediately as the undesirable behavior occurs. This helps your dog associate the correction with their action.
• Sii coerente: Use the collar consistently for the same behaviors. Everyone in the household should follow the same training protocols.
• Rinforzo positivo: Always pair corrections with positive reinforcement when your dog performs the desired behavior. Reward good behavior with praise, treats, or play.
• Brevi sessioni di allenamento: Keep training sessions short and positive (5-10 minutes).
• Evitare correzioni eccessive: Do not over-correct your dog. Excessive use can lead to fear or anxiety.

Manutenzione

• Pulizia: Pulire regolarmente il collare del ricevitore e i punti di contatto con un adamp cloth. Ensure no dirt or debris accumulates around the prongs.
• Cura della batteria: Recharge the transmitter and receiver when the battery indicator shows low power. Avoid fully draining the batteries frequently to prolong their lifespan. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
• Ispezione del cinturino: Periodically check the TPU collar strap for wear and tear. Replace if damaged.
