How the System Works
Whether your dog is running or pointing, the Beeper 400 provides
an audible signal to help you keep track of the action.The unit
is adjustable for the type of sound it makes and how frequently
it beeps when your dog is in motion. It then beeps once every
second when your dog stops to point birds.

Attaching the Beeper 400 to a Collar
The Beeper 400 attaches to the
included collar strap. It will also fit
most other sporting-style collar straps
(
1
/
10
inch thick and 1 inch wide).To
attach, remove one or both of the
beeper’s end lids and thread the collar
though the brackets. Position the
beeper behind the dog’s head. If you
are using a Collar Receiver, it should
be positioned directly under the dog’s
neck as shown in the photo.
_____________________________________
Turning the Beeper 400 On/Off
• Choose between the features and adjust the switches
accordingly.
• Make sure the Volume Switch is set to the LOW position for
first time use.Then tighten the lid snugly to ensure the lid is
watertight.
• Insert the 3-volt lithium
battery (CR123A) with the
“+” end pointing outward
and tighten the lid.
• The position of the lid
serves as the ON/OFF
switch.When the lid becomes
difficult to turn, align the dot with the
ON or OFF position.

Regular Maintenance
• Use a damp cloth and mild soap for cleaning. Do not
use harsh abrasives or solvents, because these products
will damage the casing.
• Routinely check the tightness of each lid.
• If volume of the beep begins to get noticeably low, check
or replace the battery.
• When not in use, just turn the battery lid to the OFF
position. No need to remove the battery.

of the motion-sensor switch.
