Briefly touch the magnet key (included) to
the red paper dot to turn the collar on/off.

ON – a brief solid green light and tone indi-
cate that the collar is on. Following the initial
ON tone, you will hear a number of beeps,

reflecting the Mode Number that the collar was last in (see chart). For exam-
ple, an initial long tone followed by 3 beeps indicates that the unit is in Mode
No. 3: Silent mode, soft volume.

OFF – A brief solid red light and tone will indicate the collar has been turned
off. First become familiar with the beeper mode table shown below and
determine which of the 8 modes you would like to use. Example: Mode No.
2 is standard tone, run and point, loud volume.

With the unit OFF, touch the magnet key to the red paper dot and CONTINUE
holding it in place.

While you are holding the magnetic key to the red paper dot, you will see LED
flashes and hear audible tones as follows:

1) A brief solid green LED and long tone indicate the collar is on.

2) The green LED flashes, and the unit emits audible beeps, per the num-

ber in the table below. For example, 3 short flashes and beeps indicate
that the unit is in Mode 3: standard tone, point only, soft volume.

3) The LED then turns solid amber.

4) Now pull the magnetic key away. A long tone sounds. You may now set

a new mode of your choice. In this example, set Mode No. 2.

5) Within 5 seconds of the solid amber LED and long tone, move the mag-

netic key back to the red dot and hold it in place. The amber LED
changes to flash green, the speaker emits audible tones. After 2
beeps/flashes, pull the magnet away.

6) The LED flashes green and speaker emits audible tones to confirm the

mode. In our example, 2 beeps/flashes confirm Mode No. 2.

7) Turn the collar OFF before putting it on your dog.

Step 3

Changing the Operating Mode

In general, touch the magnet key to the red paper dot and CONTINUE holding
until the LED turns amber. Pull the magnet key away. Within 5 seconds, move
the magnet key back to the red dot and hold it in place to set one of 8 pro-
grammed modes. The number of beeps and green flashes indicates the mode
per the table below. Pull away the magnet after the desired number of beeps
are heard to program the mode you want. Try different modes to discover the
one that works best for you.

Proper Fit: The collar fit should be snug, yet loose enough
to allow one finger to fit between the strap and the dog’s
neck. Fit is important because a loose collar may move on
the neck. It’s okay to trim any excess strap length.

Turn the collar ON when it’s fitted to your dog and you are ready to go.

Rugged All-Terrain Beeper

Model FP-BEEPER

Understanding the Receiver
Your tracking beeper consists of a Durapro

collar strap which features

a collar speaker, and a small receiver box, which houses the battery
and computerized electronics that control the beeper. Do not attempt to
remove either the speaker or receiver from the strap. Use the magnet
key to turn the unit ON and OFF, and set beeper modes. The Rugged
All-Terrain Beeper is waterproof and submersible.

The collar receiver uses a LED light to let you know the status of the
receiver:

• Blinking green light – collar is ON and operational
• Solid red light – turning collar OFF
• Blinking red light – low battery; change as soon as possible
• Amber light – programming mode

Understanding the Beeper
The beeper is connected to the collar receiver via wires running
through the collar strap. Take care not to cut the strap or damage these
wires. The beeper is waterproof. It requires very little maintenance
besides checking the slots occasionally and removing debris.

Replacement Batteries
Your Rugged All-Terrain Beeper uses a 123-size 3-volt lithium battery.
These are commonly available where you bought your training system,
where batteries are sold, or call 1-800-826-5527 to order direct from
us. When you replace the battery the beeper will lose its programming.
Follow Quick Start Step 3 to reset operating mode.

Troubleshooting

If volume is muted after submerging in water, turn the
beeper speaker to drain the water.
If debris reduces speaker volume, gently pry out the
black rubber ring from the top cap of the speaker. Pull
the body of the speaker upwards until the slots are
above the top cap. Clean debris from slots and
reassemble, setting the rubber ring in its slot.

If you cannot solve the problem by following these
steps, please call 1-800-826-5527.

Rugged All-Terrain Beeper is designed to meet require-

IMPORTANT ADVICE

1. Read the complete instructions and follow all directions. If you have

any questions, please call 1-800-826-5527.

2. This device is intended for use only on dogs. Never attempt to

use it for any purpose not described in this manual.

3. Never perform set-up procedures while the collar is on your dog.

4. Any collar worn for extended periods can cause a condition similar to bed-

sores, known as Pressure Necrosis. To reduce the possibility, you must do the
following:

• Never leave the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.

• Examine the dog’s neck daily for any signs of a rash or a sore.

• Supervise your dog during the first 2 days of training.

• Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; you should be able to insert

one finger between the collar strap and your dog’s skin.

• Wash the dog’s neck area and the probes of the collar weekly with a wash

cloth and mild hand soap; rinse thoroughly.

• If the condition persists beyond 24 hours, see your veterinarian.

5. Always use the rubber insulators between the collar strap and the insulated

plastic probes.

6. Other collars and metal tags should be removed when using the Rugged All-

Terrain Beeper.

7. Do not attempt to dismantle or repair any components of this system; doing

so will void the warranty in full. The computerized circuitry should be serv-
iced only by an authorized expert.

8. Realize that because dogs have unique temperaments, there is no way of

knowing how your dog will react to the introduction of an audible tracking
beeper. For the safety of your dog, a long lead should be used during initial
training so you have control of the situation.

9. If you have reason to believe that your dog may pose a danger to others,

harm itself, or react adversely to the collar, do not rely solely on this product
to train your dog. If your dog shows signs of growling, snarling or biting
while using the collar, stop immediately. Aggression in dogs has many caus-
es. We recommend that you consult a knowledgeable professional dog train-
er or animal behaviorist who has experience with aggressive dogs if your
dog has shown any of these characteristics.
