Quick guide from the manual

The Dogtra 1200X is a professional dog training system with a 1200-meter range. This guide covers essential operations, including device pairing, stimulation adjustment, and battery maintenance. Always ensure the collar is fitted correctly to avoid skin irritation and never leave it on the dog for more than 6 hours at a time.

Device Overview

The system consists of a handheld transmitter and a receiver collar. The transmitter features a rheostat dial for 100 precise stimulation levels, a toggle switch for multi-dog selection (up to 3 dogs), and dedicated buttons for Nick/Constant stimulation, vibration, and tone. Both units are IPX9K waterproof.

First Setup and Pairing

To add a receiver: 1. Turn on the transmitter and set the intensity to '0'. 2. Select the desired dog channel (1, 2, or 3). 3. With the receiver turned off, hold the power button for 5 seconds until the LED blinks. 4. Simultaneously press the front transmitter button and the side boost button until 'CD****' appears on the screen.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

If the device fails to respond, check that the receiver is on and the collar is tight enough for the contact points to touch the skin. If the dog has thick fur, consider using longer contact points. For technical support, contact [email protected] or call +33 (0)1 30 62 65 65.

Common problems

Dog shows no reaction to stimulation

Ensure the receiver is on, the collar is tight enough for contact, or increase the stimulation level. If the dog has thick fur, trim the hair or use longer contact points.

Insufficient range

Ensure your fingers are not touching the antenna. Range is affected by terrain; move to higher ground or hold the transmitter vertically.

Device does not hold charge

Clean the charging port with a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol. If the device is over two years old, the battery may need replacement.

Before use

  • Ensure the collar is fitted so that contact points touch the skin.
  • Check that the battery is fully charged.
  • Verify the receiver is turned on.
  • Test the stimulation level on your fingertips (touching both contacts) if unsure.
  • Ensure the charging port cover is closed.
