dog fox 16 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 obverously youve changed the battery,s first ,but i did read somewere that the crystals in the orto seem to drift in time so might just need recalerberating ,but at twelve month old thats not good .glad i got the barryvox now Quote Link to post
Bryan 1,362 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 sounds like your batteries are low and it's switched to pure analogue mode(if batteries are less than 10%)you can still find the dog in this mode,page 38 of the manual when you turn the D3 on in the send mode the number that comes up in the display is the battery level. Change all 3 batteries and give it a go. ATB,Bryan Quote Link to post

If both boxes aren't picking up the collar i would think it's the collar? have you put a LR 1 battery in the collar? you wouldn't be the first to put in the wrong battery in the collar Bryan Quote Link to post

Although for the life of me I don't know what that "word" is, can never understand him! Quote Link to post
