A geofence is an invisible boundary around an area and is

created using points on the map. The virtual boundaries of a

geofence are accurate up to approximately 10 ft. (3 m).

Geofences perform best when sized to cover an area

encompassing an average sized backyard (approximately

¼ acre).

Setting a Geofence Alert

You can set up an invisible boundary around an area and

receive an alert when a dog or contact enters and exits that

area.

Select Setup > Location Alerts > Add Alert > Geofence.

Select a point on the map, and select Use.

Repeat step 2 to define a geofence with up to 10 points.

Select Done.

Setting a Radius Alert

You can receive an alert when a dog or contact gets within or

outside of a certain distance away from you.

Select Setup > Location Alerts > Add Alert > Radius.

Select the unit of measurement.

Enter the radius distance, and select .

Editing Location Alerts

Select Setup > Location Alerts.

Select an alert.

Select an option:

• Select Disable to turn off notifications for this alert.

• Select Set Alert Type to set the way the device notifies

you for this alert.

• Select Set Alert Mode to set the notification to sound on

exit, entrance, or both.

• Select Delete to remove the alert.

Dog Training

You should research and investigate the training methods best

suited for you, your dog, and your needs. This manual provides

some basic guidelines for training, but each dog has unique

training needs.

When used properly, the Alpha training system is a very

effective training tool to aid your dog in reaching its full potential.

The use of the training system should be part of an overall

training program.

Begin training your dog on a leash, without the Alpha training

system. You should train your dog how to heel, sit, and come to

you. After the dog understands these three basic commands,

you can begin training with the dog collar device and the leash.

Finally, when the dog consistently obeys commands using the

leash and collar, you may be able to remove the leash to train

with only the dog collar device.

Selecting and Installing the Contact Points

For best results, select the correct contact points based on your

dog's coat.

Select the correct contact point length for your dog's coat

type:

• For dogs with thicker coats, use the longer contact points.

• For dogs with shorter coats, use the shorter contact

points.

If necessary, use the included wrench to remove the contact

points.

Twist the contact points into the collar.

Tighten with the included wrench, but do not overtighten.

When you put the collar on the dog, make sure the contact

points are tight against the neck.

Removing the Contact Points

When you are not training the dog using the training keys,

remove the contact points.

Use the included wrench to remove both contact points.

Place the cap over the contact point holes.

Training Methods

Momentary stimulation: Applies a brief stimulation when you

press the training key, regardless of how long the key is

depressed.

Continuous stimulation: Applies stimulation to the dog the

entire time you press the training key, for a maximum of 8

seconds. Your stimulations should typically be much shorter

than 8 seconds.

Tone: Activates an audible tone instead of stimulation. A tone

can be used as either a positive or negative training cue,

depending on your training program.

Vibration: Applies vibration instead of stimulation to the dog the

entire time you press the training key, for a maximum of 8

seconds. The effectiveness of vibration may vary based on

the dog's temperament and experience.

Linear and Traditional Stimulation

You can use linear or traditional stimulation to customize your

training experience. The default intensity method is linear, which

allows progressive stimulation from level 1 to level 18.

Traditional stimulation allows you to make quick changes using

low, medium, and high settings within predetermined stimulation

levels (1 through 6).

Choosing the Correct Intensity Level

Set the intensity to the lowest level (Customizing the Training

Keys, page 7).

Select a training key.

Observe the dog for a reaction, such as a head shake, neck

movement, or just a change in expression.

Sometimes dogs will vocalize due to the surprise of the

electrical stimulation. If the dog vocalizes more than once,

the intensity level is too high for beginning training.

If there is no reaction, increase the intensity level by one level

until the dog has a slight but recognizable reaction to the

stimulation.

The intensity level that causes a slight but recognizable reaction

is your dog's baseline level for beginning collar training. You do

not need to, and should not, apply this intensity selection test

again.

After you begin training, the dog’s performance guides your

intensity selection. As the dog advances in training, you may

need to change the level depending upon the training situation.

Setting Up the Training Keys for One

Intensity Level

Before you can assign the training keys to a dog, you must add

the dog to the handheld device (Adding a Dog Using Wireless

Pairing, page 3).

By default, the training keys are set to the lowest stimulation

setting, with momentary (M), continuous (C), and tone (T) or

vibration (V) for each key. This mode is most useful when

training only one dog. When training multiple dogs, it may be

helpful to customize a training key for each dog and for each

intensity level (Customizing the Training Keys, page 7).

Select Setup > Training > Training Buttons.

Select the area at the top of the screen directly below the

keys.
