Quick Start

Step 1 : Screw the antenna tightly onto the transmitter.

Step 2 : Charge the transmitter. The signal light will flicker until battery is fully charged.

Step 3 : Screw the metal prongs onto the receiver till the prongs are securely attached. Normally, they are assembled in the factory.

Step 4 : Charge the receiver. The RED LED light of the receiver will be on while the receiver is charging. When the receiver is fully charged, the BLUE LED will be on. Once you unplug the charger, the RED LED light will stay solid on-waiting for sync. At the same time, the Blue LED light will go off.

Tip 1 : It is recommend to charge the transmitter and receiver for up to 3 hours for the first 3 times.

Step 5 : Turn the receiver on/off. Bring the magnet on the transmitter near to the magnet switch on the receiver until the receiver vibrates. At that time, the red light will be on /off, indicating that the receiver is started/off. If you just finish charging, unplug the charger, and the receiver is on already.

Tip 2 : To do a self-test, place the magnet on the transmitter near to the ON/OFF area on the receiver for 3 times, and the receiver will beep, vibrate or shock with the blue light on, indicating the receiver works normally.

Step 6: Match the receiver and transmitter. Choose a dog mode (Dog1, dog2 or dog00) by pressing the dog switch button. For the first receiver, choose dog 1 mode and quickly press one of the three buttons in the front, and the first receiver will be connected with the transmitter. Meanwhile, the red light goes off and the blue light starts flashing. If you have another receiver, turn it on, choose dog 2 mode, press any function buttons, and the second receiver will be paired.
You can train different dogs separately in different dog systems. If Dog00 is selected, both dogs will receive correctional signals.

Tip 3 : After 3 minute of inactivity, transmitter will go into sleep mode. You can wake it up by pressing any function keys.

Step 7 : Check the button functions. Push the beep button, and the receiver beeps. Similarly, press the vibrate button, and the receiver vibrates. Cap the shock test kit on the metal prongs, and press the shock button. If the bulb lights up, the shock function is normal.

Tip 4 : The duration for pressing the beep, vibrate or shock button will lead to difference on the length of the beep, vibration or shock time.

Step 8 : Adjust the intensity of shock function by rotating the thumbwheel dial. 1-9 levels can be chosen. In level 0, you can do nothing with the remote.

Step 9 : Start to train the dogs. Put the collar into the receiver and wear the receiver around dog’s neck. Remember to leave one finger place between the collar and the neck, and then you can train the dogs.

Tip 5 : For 918C, auto Anti Bark function is available. Press Dog Switch button for 3 seconds to enable/disable the auto anti bark mode with the signal light be solid blue/off. In dog00 system, auto anti bark function is automatically disabled and cannot be turned on. Please turn auto anti bark function off in a timely manner when the system is not in use.

Troubleshooting

A：The Transmitter /Receiver runs out of batteries quickly.

1. Make sure the charger and Transmitter/Receiver are securely connected.
2. Charge the Transmitter/Receiver for 3 hours or above.

B：The Transmitter doesn’t work.

C：The Transmitter can’t match the Receiver successfully.

1. Make sure the intensity level is not on ZERO.
2. Check whether the antenna is installed correctly.

D：The Receiver doesn’t respond to the Transmitter.

1. Make sure the intensity level is not on ZERO.
2. Make sure the Receiver has been synced with the Transmitter and the Transmitter is in the correct dog system. Never change the dog system after the system has been synced!
3. Make sure the Receiver and Transmitter have enough power.

E：The training system has no effect on my dog.

1. Make sure the Receiver is working and the shocking prongs touch dog’s skin closely.
2. Try increasing the intensity level.

F：The Transmitter can’t remotely control 1-2 or 1-3 Receivers.

1. Make sure you sync different Receivers separately.
2. Only in the correct dog system, can you operate the corresponding receiver or dog.
3. Whenever the Receiver/Transmitter is out of power and recharged, you need to sync them once again.

G：The training system is only available in short range.

1. Check whether the antenna is installed correctly.
2. Make sure there is no strong signal interference from your surroundings. The Transmitter’s control range could fluctuate subject to surroundings, obstacles, or even the weather.
3. As for the AT-919, make sure the collar has been put through the antenna pole in the back side of the Receiver.

H: What is the function of the rubber cap outside the charging port?

It prevents dust or water from coming into the charging port effectively. You need to plug the cap into the charging port tightly when charging is completed.

I：How to turn on/off the anti bark feature?

For 218, press and hold on the Flashlight button, then quickly press down Beep button, and the anti bark feature will be turned off; For 219, press and hold the microphone button for three seconds, and the anti bark feature will be turned on/off; For 918C, press and hold on dog selection button on the side of Transmitter, and the anti bark feature will be turned on/off; For 919C, quickly press the Flashlight button on the back side of the Transmitter, and the bark feature will be turned off;

J：The Receiver beeps, vibrates or shocks by itself constantly or occasionally.

1. Make sure the anti bark feature is turned off. For 219, the default status of the auto anti bark feature is on while that of the 218/918C/ 919C is off. After auto mode feature had been turned off, for 218 and 918C, the auto mode LED light will go off; for 219, auto mode icon MICROPHONE will disappear; for 919C, auto mode icon (SPEAKER) will be hollowed;
2. Make sure the Receiver has enough power, because the Receiver will alarm when it runs out of power.
3. Make sure any button of the Transmitter has not been touched.
4. Sync the Receiver with the Transmitter once again.

K：When buying individual Receiver or Transmitter, why do I need to double- check the version?

Aetertek updated all machine frequency from 433.92 MHz to 915 MHz, so every time you need to buy individual Receiver or Transmitter, you must know the frequency you actually need; otherwise they will not be compatible.

L：After unplugged charger, the red LED light of the Receiver stays in solid to wait for sync, however it can’t synced with Transmitter.

Please turn off your Receiver and re-sync it.

M：My Receiver seems to work by itself without the operation of the Transmitter. Check whether the auto anti bark function is on. If Yes, turn it off.

N：The Auto anti bark feature is not working properly.

1. Make sure the auto anti bark feature had been turned on, then you can test the function by scratching the shocking prongs on the surface of a desk, and the qualified Receiver will start to beep and vibrate.
2. Do an auto anti bark feature test on www.aetertek.com. (http://www.aetertek.com/pages/Auto-anti-bark-feature -test.html).

Training Tips

This product is intended to support behavioral training and is not designed to be used without necessary interaction. Always praise your dog for good behavior. Verbal commands with positive reinforcement will contribute to success of your training and will achieve the fastest and most desirable results possible.

The recommended age for training is a minimum of 6 months, provided that dog has the attention span and capability to learn basic commands. And it should not be used on aggressive or elderly animals in poor health or animals otherwise unable to withstand the stimulus.

Use verbal commands first, and supplement with a corrective stimulus only as needed. Be consistent with your verbal commands, using the same words every time. Work with your pet on one behavior at a time to avoid confusion and frustration. Use as little stimulus as possible and only to reinforce verbal commands when necessary. Do not over correct your dog.

For example, use the beeps as warning by pressing Beep button. The dog will become conditioned to the beep preceding the corrective stimulus and will soon learn to recognize the beep as a warning along with your verbal command. Do not rely on this product solely to train your dog. Some dogs will not respond to this product. Aetertek cannot guarantee the effectiveness of this or any trainer on your dog. If your dog shows signs of growling, snarling, biting or aggression while using the collar, discontinue use immediately and contact a professional trainer for advice.
