Mortality 

 

If you choose to use mortality when you program the collar with the ATS

Fixes

 for Satellite 

Collars software, the collar will immediately initiate an email transmission sequence if the collar 
goes into mortality. If successful, you will receive an email to let you know that the collar is in 
mortality. In the event of a false mortality, it is possible that the collar may get out of mortality 
before a successful transmission takes place. The email transmission will still be attempted until 
ten attempts are reached and if successful will indicate mortality was 

not

 reached. Also, if the 

satellite antennas do not have an adequate view of the sky, as may potentially occur with a true 
mortality, no email may be received immediately following a mortality. 

 

In addition to the mortality email, the VHF will change to the Mortality VHF. The mortality 
VHF will override a duty cycle if one has been set up.  
 
In order for the G2110E2 to exit mortality mode, the collar must undergo thirty seconds of 
activity. (The thirty seconds of activity does not have to be consecutive but should be within the 
mortality period chosen.) 

 

Neolink Events 

 

If your G2110E2 collar is part of a 

Neolink

 system and is programmed to detect 

Neolink

 devices, 

it will regularly attempt to detect the presence of a 

Neolink

 device such as the M3930U (VIT) or 

the M4230U (expandable fawn collar). If certain conditions are met for the 

Neolink

 devices, the 

G2110E2 will transmit an alarm to the customer to signify the event. See Sections 12, 13, and 14 
for more details. If the 

Neolink

 system is not necessary, it should not be enabled in order to save 

battery life.
