Patent ID: 8181607

Claim:
A method of controlling an animal training device, comprising the steps of: a) searching Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM), in which low-frequency stimulation intensities set for receivers, ID codes of which have been set, and functions selected for the receivers are stored, for receivers worn on a plurality of animals; b) determining whether a flash control function switch for the receivers found at step a) is operated; c) if it is determined at step b) that the flash control function switch is not operated, determining whether a receiver selection function switch is operated, and then additionally storing a number of receivers worn on the animals; d) storing a receiver newly set at step c) in the EEPROM; e) determining whether an emergency stimulation mode function switch is operated; f) if it is determined at step e) that the emergency stimulation mode function switch is operated, adding a specific value to a current low-frequency stimulation value set for each receiver, and then outputting a resulting low-frequency stimulation; g) if it is determined at step e) that the emergency stimulation mode function switch is not operated, determining whether a fixed switch is operated; h) if it is determined at step g) that the fixed switch is not operated, determining whether a simultaneous stimulation mode function switch is operated; i) if it is determined at step g) that the fixed switch is operated, and if it is determined at step h) that the simultaneous stimulation mode function switch is operated, storing current low-frequency stimulation values in the EEPROM; and j) outputting the current low-frequency stimulation values set for the animals at step i).
