Description / Specifications The Pet Stop Battery Powered Transmitter operates from 4 standard AA alkaline batteries, and produces a signal range of up to 4’. The transmitter incorporates an audible low battery warning which permits mounting the transmitter out of site, such as in a closet or beneath a couch or bed.

Specifications: Maximum range: 3 ¾’ +/- ¼’ Up to 5’ of range can be obtained by increasing receiver sensitivity from its default setting. Range degradation : Range may degrade 6” over life of batteries Frequency: Fixed, 7KHZ Modulation: Fixed, PETSTOP Battery Life: Maximum of 6 months based upon a 3’...

Upon insertion of last battery, transmitter will power up. It will produce a 1 second beep while turning on the red transmission LED. If the transmitter produces a series of rapid beeps for 10 seconds after power-up, this is an indication that the batteries are low and should be replaced.

Setting the Switches: Switches are set by sliding them up or down. To turn a switch “ON” slide it to the up position. To turn a switch “OFF” slide it to the downward position. Switches 1 and 4 control the repetition rate. This controls how often the transmitter bursts signal.

Switches 2 and 3 set the packet length. This controls the length of the transmitter signal burst. Burst lengths of ¼, ½, ¾ and 1 second can be selected. A shorter burst length (i.e. ¼ second) will yield a longer transmitter battery life. Settings: 2 ON, 3 ON ¼...
