ABSTRACT:
A portable programming apparatus is employed for a programmable animal control device carried by an animal having a receiver for receiving a radio signal, a transducer for applying a stimulus to the animal in response to the radio signal, and a programmable controller responsive to selected control parameters for controlling operation of the animal control device. The programming apparatus includes a connector probe for insertion into a battery compartment of the animal control device. The connector probe includes probe terminals for mating with the battery terminals of the animal control device. The programming apparatus includes a controller for establishing communication with the animal control device via the probe terminals and for transferring the control parameter between the programming apparatus and the animal control device. The programming apparatus includes a parameter selection actuator for selecting a new value of the control parameter and a selection entry actuator for causing the controller to transmit the new value of the control parameter to the animal control device via the probe terminals thereby enabling the animal control device to operate under the new value of the control parameter such as a new frequency of operation.
