Dog Tracking
To view the Dog Tracker page:
Press DOG .
The dog you are tracking is identified and the dog pointer
indicates its direction from you. The dog pointer is most
accurate when you are holding the Astro 220 level and
the dog is farther than 30 feet (9.1 meters) away. At less
than that distance, a NEAR message appears, and the dog
pointer is shortened. When you are close to the dog, the
dog pointer may be inaccurate.
To change the color of your dog’s pointer, see
page 31 .
