Contain ‘N’ Train ®
IUC-5100 Users Only
Your Contain ‘N’ Train ® system includes a handheld remote.
The remote offers 9 levels of preset stimulation. Level 1
delivers the mildest level, and Level 9 the most intense.
The collar will stimulate for as long as you hold down the
center red stimulation button (maximum 10 seconds).
You can use your remote to train your dog within the
boundaries of your in-ground fence, or you may remove
the dog from the fenced area. Be sure to remove the collar
from the dog when crossing the field boundaries.The train-
ing system has a working range of up to 150 yards.
Contain ‘N’ Train Collar
Your collar features two LED lights. The one on the left
reflects the status of your system’s in-ground fence.The light
on the right reflects commands from the hand-held remote.
Remote controls
The miniature handheld
remote includes a built-in
antenna, LCD display, and 6
control buttons.
• Stimulation – The red,
center button. Sends stim-
ulation signal to the collar
at the intensity shown in
the display window. The
button features four raised
bumps, one at each corner, for user confidence when
operating by touch only.
• Level up (+) / Level Down (-) – arrow
shaped buttons adjust stimulation intensity
through a range of levels from Low-1 to High-9.
• Tone
t
– Green, speaker-shaped button.
Produces a harmless tone at the collar. No stimulation
is delivered. Use tones to reinforce correction. Some
people use tone as an alternate form of correction.
Button is also used as ON/OFF (see below).
• Dog 1/ Dog 2
C
– Switches remote controls from the
Dog 1 collar to the Dog 2 collar; great when training two
dogs at once. You can purchase a second accessory
collar to expand your system to train two dogs.
• BOOST –
B
Red, smaller stimulation button. Sends a
stimulation signal 2 levels higher than that shown in the
display window. For example, if you are training your dog
at level 3, pressing BOOST delivers a stimulation at level 5.
The display shows stimulation levels 1 through 9.
The lower part of the display shows which collar is
active. Press “Dog1/Dog 2” button once or twice
until collar 1 shows as active.
The display will stay ON, only going OFF 30 minutes after
the last button press
The back of the remote features a recessed groove in
which to rest your index finger while operating the controls
with your thumb. For best results at distance, take care not
to cover or shield the antenna with your body or hand, or
you may see a reduction in transmission range.
The remote is water-proof, though submersion is not rec-
ommended. It operates on a replaceable 12v Alkaline bat-
tery (23A or A23). These are commonly available where
you bought your system or where batteries are sold.
ON/OFF
To turn the training mode of the
collar on or off, hold the collar
within 1 inch of the remote
antenna, taking care not to touch
the skin contact points. Press
“Dog1/Dog 2” button once or
twice until collar 1 shows as
active. Press the TONE button,
also labeled “1/0”. The collar will emit a start-up tone, and
the right-hand light will glow solid green. This ON/OFF
command only works when remote and collar are in close
proximity; it will not work at a distance. Never turn the unit
ON/OFF while your dog is wearing the collar.
When not in use, be sure training function is OFF (right hand
collar light is off), or you may drain battery.
About Stimulation
We recommend that you always start training your dog with
the lowest stimulation, and increase to a higher level if nec-
essary. You will know when you’ve reached the right level
when your dog responds by twitching his head, neck or
shoulders or by perking up his ears. If the dog vocalizes, you
may need to go to a lower level.
Control the level of stimulation with the UP (+)/DOWN (-)
arrow buttons. Adjust the stimulation level from a low of 1,
to a high of 9. To correct your dog, press the center red
stimulation button.
You control the length of the stimulation by the time you
press the button. For a short stimulation, press and release
the button. For a longer stimulation, hold the button down.
A maximum of 10 seconds may be applied before the safe-
ty feature to prevent over-correction engages. After 10 sec-
onds, stimulation will be locked out for another 10 seconds.
you are not getting the desired range at the maximum set-
ting, altering the ZONE location by a few feet or changing
how the Zone is positioned (ie: standing on end instead of
laying flat) may help cover your pet free area.
Turning the Units OFF
To turn the ZONE OFF, continue to press and release the
DOWN arrow button until no bars are present in the win-
dow. The ZONE is now OFF.
Multiple Dog Households
All zones and collars come preset in mode A. In multiple
dog households, it may be desired to allow one dog access
to an area while denying access to another. Each collar can
operate on one of two different modes - A or B.
Each Zone may also
be set to either A. B, or
both (A and B) to allow
multiple configura-
tions.
Changing the system mode setting
1.Take your collar with a full battery charge (green light) and
set it within one foot of the Zone.
2.With the Zone turned OFF, press and hold the DOWN arrow
button until a vertical bar appears in the window.This bar will
indicate whether the Zone is set to mode A or mode B. The
collar will be programmed to reflect the mode setting on
your transmitter. Continue to hold DOWN arrow button
through the end of the next step. NOTE: You cannot repro-
gram the collar if the Zone is set on A/B mode.
3. Press and release the UP arrow button until desired mode
is indicated. Now press and hold the UP arrow button until
one bar segment appears, followed by three beeps from the
collar. The collar is now set for your chosen mode.
4. Important: Any collar that is within 6 feet of the trans-
mitter and turned on will be reprogrammed by these steps.
You may use this feature to program multiple collars at
once. However, make sure any collar you do not wish to
reset is 6 feet beyond the transmitter during this procedure.
Do not perform set-up procedure while the collar is on
your dog.
