How to check that your CANICOM 1000 is functioning properly
- Before doing so, make sure that the receiver collar is turned « off ».
- Place the neon test lamp in contact with each of the contact points (by unscrewing them then by
screwing them up in order to grip wires of the lamp under the contact points).
- Turn « on » the remote control and receiver collar.
- Press the « 1 » or « 2 » key in order to select the collar you want to test (the number 1 or 2 appear on
the LCD screen).
- Press the « F » or « C » button and modify the level of intensity of the stimulations: the test lamp will
come on with more or less intensity.
Renew the same procedure for each receiver collar.
Getting the best results
The training instructions you send to your dog are sent from the remote control to the receiver collar
by radio waves. These radio waves are sensitive and the range reaches approximately 1000 meters
(depending on geography and environment).
The performances of your CANICOM 1000 will be optimal if you respect the following
recommendations:
- To obtain a good radio range, do not cover the antenna when you hold the remote control in your hand.
- The position of the receiver collar around the neck of the dog should be in the following way: the "On/
Off" indicator is visible and is not in contact with the breast of the dog.
- Check the batteries (remote control and receiver collar) before using the unit and replace them as soon
as the level of load is weak.
- The performances of the batteries decrease slightly under temperatures lower than 0°C. If possible
keep the remote control warm (e.g. in the pocket) before using it.
Fitting the collar
The strap must be adjusted so that the contact points are in contact with the skin of the dog.
- If the strap is too loose, the collar is likely to move and repeated friction can irritate the skin of
your dog. Furthermore, it will not function correctly.
- If the collar is too tight, the dog will have breathing difficulties.
Do not leave the collar positioned at the same place for long periods (i.e. over 3 hours) because this can
cause irritations. If your dog must wear the collar for long periods, change regularly the position on the
neck of your dog.
Starting out with the training collar
- You can start using the collar with 6 month-old puppies that have already received some basic training:
« stay », « sit », or at least « no ».
- Do not use the collar with dogs that are not in good physical shape (i.e. cardiac problems, epilepsy) or
have behavioural problems.
