Introduction:
The EasyPet®rechargeable intelligent anti bark collar EP-28A is specially designed for cases
where dogs are particularly constant barkers or especially stubborn. Continually giving your
dog plenty of warning before it becomes painful, EP-28A’s unique pattern of sound, vibration
and 18 levels of progressively increasing static stimulus quickly teaches your dog that it is its
own bark that is causing the discomfort. With its advanced Auto-Set memory technology, EP-
28A can protect your dog from over stimulation. The more he barks, the higher the static
correction is. As he learns to bark less frequently, EP-28A anti bark collar will stop at the level
just right for your dog. A very humane yet effective approach to excessive bark control.
Main Features:
•Rechargeable and fully submersible; solid built to withstand repeated usage.

•Triple detection technology—3-way triggered response: vibration from vocal cords +
sound from the bark + pre-set barking time frame to minimize false triggering.
•3 Correction Modes & built-in safety feature—Humane combination of beep, vibration
and 18 levels of progressive static stimulus corrections (optional).
•Static stimulus correction can be manually turned off if undesired.
•Comes with a pair of plastic prongs for pure vibration purpose only (no shock).
•Auto-set memory feature to protect your dog from over-stimulation.
•LED light power indicator.
•Light weight and compact collar unit with high quality waterproof strap.
Principles of Operations:
When your dog barks, EP-28A will first apply a low-pitched tone. If a second bark occurs, a
vibration correction will be administered. If your dog barks a third time, it will give a short beep
tone with the vibration correction, and emit the stimulation on the mildest level. The
stimulation levels increase every time your dog barks until he stops barking. After your dog
has stopped barking, the microprocessor will automatically remember the correct level which
stops your dog’s barking and will start from the exact level when he barks again (Auto Set
Memory). There are 18 levels of static stimulus. At each step, your dog gets to choose
whether it is worth the increasing pain to bark again. We have found this technique of
combination of warning tone, vibration and shock is not only more humane, but also more
effective in breaking the barking habit than conventional shocking anti bark collars.
Quick Start
Step 1 Charging the Collar
WARNING: The collar should be off the dog for this step!
1.1 Lift the small rubber tab on the collar to access the charging port.
1.2 Plug the supplied wall charger into the wall socket and into the charging port of the
receiver.

1.3 A red LED light will be visible on both the charger and on the collar during the charging
process. For the first few cycles of charging, please charge the collar for 4 to 5 hours. The
subsequent charge will take around 3 hours.
1.4 Once the collar is fully charged, the indicator LED light on the collar will turn green. Unplug
the collar from the power cord and secure the rubber charging port tab. To insert the rubber
tab smoothly into the charging port, please make sure the rubber stud on the rubber tab is in
vertical position (as shown in the picture).
1.5 Low power indicator: When the indicator LED lights flash red rapidly (twice per second),
the battery inside is running low. Please recharge the collar.
Step 2. Turning on/off the collar

When the charging is complete, the collar unit will be turned on automatically once the charger
pin is unplugged from it.
2.1 Turning on the collar: To turn the collar unit on from OFF mode, press and hold down the
power button for three seconds, the collar unit will vibrate twice quickly with a green light
flashing once.
2.2 Turning off the collar: To turn the collar unit off from ON mode, press and hold down the
power button for three seconds, the collar unit will vibrate twice quickly with a red light flashing
once.
2.3 To preserve the battery life of the collar, always turn the collar off when not in use.
Step 3 Testing the collar
To test the collar manually and see if it can get triggered properly, simply hold the collar unit
with one hand and tap both of the metal prongs with finger tips rapidly. The collar will start to
beep, vibrate, and give electric shock correction (shock correction mode enabled) when it’s
triggered continuously.
Step 4 Choose the proper working mode for your dog
There are two working modes on the collar.
The first mode is shock correction enabled mode. In this mode, the collar will gradually give
beep, vibration and 18 levels of shock correction unit the dog stops barking.
The second mode is with pure vibration correction mode, the collar unit will only give beep and
vibration correction to the dog to stop barking.
4.1 Shock correction enabled mode
By default, the collar unit is in shock correction enabled mode. When the collar unit is on, the
indicator light will flash RED once every 6 seconds to indicate the collar unit is in shock
correction enabled mode. To change the collar into shock correction enable mode from pure
vibration mode, simply press the power button quickly for three times.
4.2 Pure vibration correction mode
To change the collar to work in pure vibration correction mode, simply press the power button
quickly for three times, the indicator light should start flashing GREEN once every 6 seconds.

beeps only (for the next 3
minutes)*

* For safety mode details, please refer to step 5 Built-in Safety Feature.
4.3 Alternative way to disable/isolate the shock correction
Simply unscrew the metal prongs on the collar unit and put on the plastic prongs instead, this
will also remove the shock correction effect on the dog.
4.4 Standby mode on the collar
If the collar is not triggered within 10 minutes in a quiet environment, the collar will go into
standby mode. The indicator light on the collar will stay off. If you wish to check which mode
the collar is working on, simply press on the power button once, this will bring the collar unit
back into working mode and the indicator light should start flashing slowly (once every 6
seconds) to show you which mode the collar is working on.
When the collar is in standby mode, any barking from the dog or sound from surroundings will
re-activate the collar into working mode.
