4. Charging the Devices

Both the remote transmitter and receiver collar are rechargeable. Ensure both devices are fully charged before initial use.

1. Connect the USB charging cable to the charging port on both the remote transmitter and the receiver collar.
2. Plug the other end of the USB cable into a standard USB power adapter (not included) or a computer's USB port.
3. The LED indicator on the receiver will show a solid red light during charging and turn green when fully charged. The remote's battery icon will show full when charged.
4. Charging typically takes 2-3 hours.

Note: The receiver collar has a super long standby time of approximately 90 days and 40 days of normal use on a single full charge.

5. Setup

5.1 Pairing the Remote Transmitter and Receiver Collar

The devices are usually paired from the factory. If they are not paired or you wish to pair additional collars (up to 3 dogs), follow these steps:

1. Ensure both the remote transmitter and receiver collar are turned off.
2. Press and hold the Power button on the receiver collar until the LED indicator flashes rapidly.
3. While the receiver LED is flashing, press any mode button (Beep, Vibration, or Static Shock) on the remote transmitter.
4. The receiver's LED will stop flashing and become solid, indicating successful pairing.
5. To pair additional collars, select a different channel on the remote (e.g., Dog 2 or Dog 3) and repeat the process.

5.2 Fitting the Receiver Collar

Proper fit of the receiver collar is crucial for effective and humane operation.

1. Select the appropriate length of contact points (short for short-haired dogs, long for long-haired dogs) and screw them onto the receiver.
2. For static stimulation, ensure the contact points make direct contact with your dog's skin. If static shock is not desired, apply the included silicone conductive caps over the contact points.
3. Place the receiver collar around your dog's neck, positioning the receiver unit centrally under the chin.
4. Adjust the nylon strap so that it is snug but not too tight. You should be able to fit one or two fingers comfortably between the strap and your dog's neck.
5. Avoid leaving the collar on your dog for more than 12 hours a day to prevent skin irritation.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Turning On/Off

• Remote Transmitter: Press and hold the Power button until the LCD screen illuminates. Press and hold again to turn off. The remote will hibernate when not in use and wake instantly with a button press.
• Receiver Collar: Press and hold the Power button until the LED indicator lights up. Press and hold again to turn off. The receiver remains on unless manually turned off.

6.2 Training Modes

The GROOVYPETS T720 offers three primary training modes:

1. Beep (Tone) Mode:
   Press the Beep button on the remote. The receiver will emit an audible tone. This is often used as a warning or a positive reinforcement signal.
2. Vibration Mode:
   Press the Vibration button. The receiver will vibrate. Use the level adjustment buttons to select an intensity level from 1 to 100. Start with a low level and increase only if necessary.
3. Static Shock Mode:
   Press the Static Shock button. The receiver will deliver a static pulse. Use the level adjustment buttons to select an intensity level from 1 to 100. This mode should be used as a last resort and at the lowest effective level. The collar features a humane foolproof safety-lock: if a button is held for more than 10 seconds, the stimulation will stop automatically.

6.3 Automatic Anti-Bark Mode

The receiver collar can function as a standalone automatic anti-bark collar.

• To activate the automatic anti-bark mode, ensure the receiver collar is on. Press the power button on the remote transmitter to cycle through modes until the anti-bark icon appears on the remote's display.
• In this mode, the collar will automatically detect and respond to your dog's barking with a pre-set sequence of corrections (typically beep, then vibration, then static shock if barking continues).
• You can still use the remote to manually train your dog even when the anti-bark mode is active.

6.4 Remote Range

The remote transmitter offers an effective range of up to 1100 yards (approximately 1000 meters) in open areas. Environmental factors such as terrain, weather, and electromagnetic interference can affect the actual range.

7. Training Tips

• Consistency is Key: Use the collar consistently for training.
• Positive Reinforcement: Always pair corrections with positive reinforcement when your dog performs the desired behavior.
• Start Low: Begin with the lowest effective stimulation level for vibration and static shock.
• Short Sessions: Keep training sessions short and positive to maintain your dog's engagement.
• Supervision: Never leave your dog unsupervised with the collar on, especially during initial training.
• Avoid Over-Correction: Do not over-correct your dog, as this can cause fear or anxiety.

8. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the receiver collar and contact points with a damp cloth. Ensure the charging port cover is securely closed to maintain waterproofing.
• Strap Inspection: Check the collar strap for wear and tear. Replace if damaged.
• Battery Care: Charge the devices regularly, even if not in frequent use, to maintain battery health. Avoid extreme temperatures.
• Storage: Store the collar and remote in a dry, cool place when not in use.
