Remote Trainers with Vibration employ the same methodology. The PDT00-12892
gives the dog quick on/off Vibration. The controlled (continuous) Vibration follows only if you
determine it is necessary to hold down the Transmitter’s Top Button (light blue). The PDT00-12894
three-button model has two additional features. The Middle Button (medium blue) gives a quick on/
off Vibration followed by controlled (continuous) Static Stimulation
only if you continue to hold the
button down. The Bottom Button (dark blue) provides a quick on/off Static Stimulation followed
by controlled (continuous) Static Stimulation if you continue to hold the button down. This allows
you to choose the Vibration or Static Stimulation Level that is best for your pet. Note: If a Static
Stimulation button is held up to 12 continuous seconds, the LED will flash rapidly to indicate a safety
time-out. Once released, the button resets to normal functionality.
