Location Alerts
Location alerts notify you when your dogs or contacts enter or
exit a particular location. You can create a custom geofence or
use a radius around your current location.
A geofence is an invisible boundary around an area and is
created using points on the map. The virtual boundaries of a
geofence are accurate up to approximately 10 ft. (3 m).
Geofences perform best when sized to cover an area
encompassing an average sized backyard (approximately
¼ acre).

area.

Dog Training
You should research and investigate the training methods best
suited for you, your dog, and your needs. This manual provides
some basic guidelines for training, but each dog has unique
training needs.
When used properly, the Atemos training system is a very
effective training tool to aid your dog in reaching its full potential.
The use of the training system should be part of an overall
training program.
Begin training your dog on a leash, without the Atemos training
system. You should train your dog how to heel, sit, and come to
you. After the dog understands these three basic commands,
you can begin training with the dog collar device and the leash.
Finally, when the dog consistently obeys commands using the
leash and collar, you may be able to remove the leash to train
with only the dog collar device.
Training Methods
Tone: Activates an audible tone instead of stimulation. A tone
can be used as either a positive or negative training cue,
depending on your training program.
Vibration: Applies vibration instead of stimulation to the dog the
entire time you press the training key, for a maximum of 8
seconds. The effectiveness of vibration may vary based on
the dog's temperament and experience.
Setting Up the Training Keys for One Dog
NOTE: Training features are not available in all areas for
tracking collars.
Before you can assign the training keys to a dog, you must add
the dog to the handheld device
100 Handheld Using Wireless Pairing, page
By default, the training keys are set to tone (T), vibration (V), or
light (L) for each key. This mode is most useful when training
only one dog. When training multiple dogs, it may be helpful to
customize a training key for each dog and for each training
method
