4. Finding the Right Stimulation
The 280C has a Rheostat 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. Always start at the lowest level and work your
way up. The appropriate level can be found when the dog
responds to the stimulation with a mild reaction. Also,
as the dog’s attitude changes, especially during times
of increased excitement or distraction, you may need to
adjust the intensity level.
Note: The stimulation intensity can be adjusted even when
the stimulation is in use.
Attention!
Leaving the receiver in the same location on the
dog’s neck for an extended period of time can cause
skin irritation due to the sensitivity from the contact
points. If the dog is to wear the receiver for long
periods, occasionally reposition the receiver every
few hours so that the contact points are moved to a
different location on the dog’s neck and remove the
receiver after 8 hours of usage. Make sure you check
for skin irritation each time you use the unit.
