Method and apparatus for adjusting the correction level of an animal training receiver
View Patent ↗An animal behavior modification kit including a collar mountable receiver and a plurality of circuit boards. The collar mountable receiver has a first electrode terminal and a second electrode terminal. Each of the plurality of circuit boards are selectively mechanically connectable to both the first electrode terminal and the second electrode terminal. The plurality of circuit boards include at least one electrical component having an electrical characteristic. The electrical characteristic of each of the plurality of circuit boards being different.
1. An animal behavior modification kit, comprising:
a collar mountable receiver having a first electrode terminal and a second electrode terminal; and
a plurality of circuit boards, each of said plurality of circuit boards being selectively mechanically connectable to both said first electrode terminal and said second electrode terminal, said plurality of circuit boards including at least one electrical component having an electrical characteristic, said electrical characteristic of each of said plurality of circuit boards being different.
2. The kit of claim 1 , wherein one of said plurality of circuit boards is selected, defining a selected circuit board that is mechanically connected to both said first electrode terminal and said second electrode terminal, said selected circuit board includes an electrical component electrically connected to said second electrode terminal.
3. The kit of claim 2 , wherein said selected circuit board is not electrically connected to said first electrode terminal.
4. The kit of claim 3 , further comprising a first electrode and a second electrode, said first electrode being connected to said first electrode terminal, said electrical component being connected in series with said second electrode.
5. The kit of claim 4 , wherein said first electrode is closer to said second electrode than said first electrode terminal is to said second electrode terminal.
6. The kit of claim 4 , wherein said electrical component is a resistor.
7. The kit of claim 2 , further comprising two electrodes including a first electrode and a second electrode, said selected circuit board including an opening and an electrode terminal, said first electrode terminal and said first electrode being electrically connected through said opening.
8. The kit of claim 7 , wherein said electrode terminal of said circuit board is electrically connected to said second electrode.
9. The kit of claim 8 , further comprising an electrical connector, said circuit board having an electrical connection, said electrical connector connecting said electrical connection to said second electrode terminal.
10. The kit of claim 9 , wherein said circuit board includes a voltage reduction element connected between said electrical connection and said electrode terminal of said circuit board.
11. The kit of claim 10 , wherein said first electrode is closer to said second electrode than said electrical connector is to said first electrode.
12. The kit of claim 10 , wherein said voltage reduction element is a resistor.
13. The kit of claim 1 , further comprising a collar, said receiver being positioned on one side of said collar and said circuit board being located on an opposite side of said collar.
