ARC-X Additional Receiver: Expanding Your ARC-X to Two Dogs

Before you add a second dog: the compatibility check

Adding a second dog to your ARC-X training system starts with one critical question: does your transmitter support multiple receivers? The ARC-X Additional Receiver is designed to work with the ARC-X system, but the supplied information does not confirm multi-dog capacity for every ARC-X transmitter model. Check your transmitter's manual or the original product listing to verify it can control more than one receiver. If your transmitter is a single-dog unit, you will need a different approach, such as a second complete system or a multi-dog transmitter.

Once you confirm compatibility, the ARC-X Additional Receiver gives you a slim, lightweight option for your second dog. At just 2.75 oz and 30% slimmer than the 1900X, it is designed to contour naturally and reduce bulk on your dog's neck.

What the ARC-X Additional Receiver offers

• ARC-X ADDITIONAL RECEIVER: The ARC-X receiver is designed 30% slimmer than the 1900X, with Dogtra's proprietary ergo curve that contours naturally to your dog. A slimmer profile can be more comfortable for smaller or more sensitive dogs, making it easier to introduce collar training to a second dog.

  

• ARC-X ADDITIONAL RECEIVER: At just 2.75 oz, it's so light your dog will forget it's there. Lightweight design reduces neck strain and helps ensure your dog stays focused on training, not the equipment.
• ARC-X ADDITIONAL RECEIVER: Advanced XPP vibration, audible tone, and brightest LED. These features give you multiple ways to communicate with your dog, from vibration and tone to a visible LED for low-light conditions.
• ARC-X ADDITIONAL RECEIVER: Completely waterproof. You can train in wet conditions or near water without worrying about damaging the receiver.

How to pair the ARC-X Additional Receiver to your transmitter

The supplied information does not include specific pairing instructions for the ARC-X Additional Receiver. The steps below are general guidance for Dogtra systems; consult your ARC-X transmitter manual for the exact procedure.

1. Charge both devices: Ensure the receiver and transmitter are fully charged before pairing. A low battery can interrupt the process.
2. Put the receiver in pairing mode: Follow your transmitter manual to activate pairing mode on the receiver. This often involves holding a button until the LED blinks in a specific pattern.
3. Activate pairing on the transmitter: Use the transmitter's menu or button combination to enter pairing mode and select the new receiver. The exact steps vary by model.
4. Test the connection: Once paired, test each stimulation level (vibration, tone, LED) to confirm the receiver responds correctly. If it does not, repeat the pairing process or check the manual for troubleshooting.

What the supplied information does not cover

The ARC-X Additional Receiver record does not include details on multi-dog capacity, charging time, battery life, or specific pairing sequences. We recommend referring to your ARC-X transmitter manual or contacting Dogtra support for these specifics. This article focuses on what is confirmed: the receiver's physical design, weight, and features.

If you are unsure whether your transmitter supports two dogs, do not assume it does. Many Dogtra systems require a specific multi-dog transmitter or a software update. Verifying compatibility first saves you from buying a receiver you cannot use.
