USING THE STIMULATION BUTTONS
Tri-Tronics Remote Trainers offer two types of stimulation,
“continuous” and “momentary” (Classic 70 and Trashbreaker
Ultra
XL offer only continuous stimulation).
Continuous Stimulation
The timing of continuous stimulation is controlled by
the trainer. Continuous stimulation stays on while the
transmitter button is pressed, up to the “time out” period,
described below.
Momentary Stimulation
The timing of momentary stimulation is pre-set. Momentary
stimulation stays on only very briefly, no matter how long the
button is pressed. To produce a second momentary correction,
press the button again. To produce a series of momentary
corrections, press the button for each correction.
Instantly Selectable Intensity
Most Tri-Tronics Remote Trainer models have more than one
stimulation button. This feature allows the trainer to choose
instantly among low, medium, and high stimulation. This
selection feature applies to either continuous or momentary
stimulation, or to both, depending on the model.
Being able to select low, medium, or high stimulation by
touch, using buttons, means that you do not need to look at
the transmitter when you select intensity levels – you can
keep your eyes on the dog at all times. It also means that
intensity changes are instantaneous. These features are an
advantage in many training situations.
Time-out Period
The time-out period is about 9 seconds for all models except
the Beagler XL . The time-out period on the Beagler XL is about 4
seconds (“extended stimulation”). If the collar times out,
release the button briefly to restore collar function.
