The
system gives you the
ability to allow your dog the freedom he wants, within
your specified boundaries. Dogtras containment system
contains your dog without the use of conventional fencing
that can be chewed through, jumped over or dug under.
The width of the signal field can easily be adjusted at
the wall-mount transmitter. The strength of the electrical
stimulation can be adjusted on each separate receiver with
the Intensity Selection Dial. In the
Stimulation Only
mode, your dog will receive stimulation only. In the
Pager+Stimulationmode, your dog will receive a silent
pager/vibration, followed by stimulation when he
approaches the boundary area. Once your dog consistently
avoids the signal boundary, the stainless steel contact
points can be replaced with the plastic training probes.
With the plastic training probes, your dog will be able to
respond to the vibration warning without receiving any
electrical stimulation. The plastic training probes will also
prevent any skin irritation to your dogs neck, and can be
worn for longer periods of time.
Accessories for the
system
such as additional wire, flags, lightning/surge protector,
and the European 220-volt battery charger, are available
by calling Dogtra Company at (888) 811-9111 (8:30am-
4:00pm PST).

Field Width Adjustment Knob
This knob controls the width of the signal field
(the distance from the boundary wire to the location
where the collar/receiver first activates). Turning the
knob clockwise increases the field width, giving
your dog a wider area before the activation begins.
Turning it counter-clockwise decreases the signal
field, thus giving the dog a shorter area prior to
activation.

ON/OFF & Function Selection Switch
The ON/OFF Selection switch has three functions.
When the toggle switch is in the up position, the unit
will give the dog a pager/vibration followed by
stimulation correction. When the toggle switch is in
the down position, only stimulation occurs (without
the pager warning). When the switch is in the middle
position, the power is off.

Wire Connectors For Splicing
The easy-to-use push-release wire connectors let
you instantly connect or disconnect the boundary
wire leads. Wires should be stripped approximately
a half-inch before being inserted into the red
connectors on the bottom of the wall mount
transmitter.The
system
comes with a ground wire to protect the unit in the
event of lightning/power surge. Strip about a half-
inch on each end of the ground wire and insert one
end into the black connector on the bottom of the
wall transmitter. The other end should be buried
into the ground or wrapped around a water pipe and
secured with electrical tape.
Option : A lightning/surge protector can be
purchased if there are no grounding options near the
wall transmitter.

Wall-Mount Transmitter
Use the (2) included screws to mount the
transmitter to a wall, securely, near any standard
120-volt household outlet. The unit will withstand
freezing temperatures, but it is not waterproof.
Therefore, we recommend mounting the transmitter
in a safe, dry sheltered area such as a shed, garage or
carport. Plastic anchors have been provided to secure
mounting onto drywall. Use a 1/4
drill bit to make
holes into the drywall. Insert the anchors into the
holes so that the open end faces out and mount the
transmitter by inserting the screws into the open end
of the anchors.
To power the wall transmitter, plug the AC daptor
into the standard 120-volt outlet and connect it to the
adaptor receptacle of the transmitter.

Receiver Indicator Light (LED)
When first activating the eF-3000 Gold system,
the LED light on the collar/receiver will illuminate
for approximately 1 second to indicate that the
power is on. 2 seconds after the initial light, a blink
will occur every 2 seconds to indicate that the
collar/receiver is functioning properly.
When the collar does not receive a signal from the
transmitter for 10 seconds or more, the
collar/receiver will go into sleep mode, and the LED
light will stop blinking.
Before going into the sleep mode, the collar will
blink every 2 seconds to indicate that the collar is
working properly. The color of the blink that is
emitted will change according to the level of battery
that remains in the collar. A blinking green light
indicates that the collar is fully charged, blinking
amber light shows that it is at a medium charge, and
a blinking red light shows that it needs to be charged.
Indicator Light (LED)
Intensity Selection Dial
The stimulation
selection level is adjustable on each individual
dogs collar/receiver so that it is easy to
accommodate to each dogs different personality
and temperament.
Within the intensity selection dial, the
stimulation levels range from level 1 being the
lowest, and level 5 being the most intense.
In order to select the proper intensity level for
each dog, we recommend that you being at level
1, and continue to increase the level slowly until
you are able to notice a reaction from your dog.
This ensures that you select a level that is
appropriate for your dog.
When you place the knob at the OFF position,
the collar is completely shut off.
In order to maintain full use of the batteries in
the collar, please turn off the collar/receiver when
your eF-3000 Gold system is not being utilized.
