“Fast tracking” lets you know your animal’s position every few seconds: click on it for use in an emergency.
this function uses GpS technology to show Kippy’s location. You’ll need to wait 1 or 2 minutes for Kippy to connect to the
satellite.
Warning! When you open the app or click on the button to activate Fast tracking, if the button turns orange, Kippy
is connecting to GpS.
once the signal has been found, the button will turn green.
if the button stays orange, it means Kippy is in an enclosed space or an area with insuffi cient GpS coverage. After
5 minutes searching for a signal, you will receive a No GpS notifi cation, and an LBS search will be activated (using
triangulation of cellphones). LBS positions are indicated by a green circle with the message “Your pet is in this
area”, showing the area where Kippy is 95% likely to be found.
to turn off “Fast tracking”, press the “FASt trACKiNG oN” button: it will turn grey and the message “FASt trACKiNG
oFF” will appear.
