1. Extend the telescopic antenna and turn on the
receiver.
2. Set the gain so that a major portion of the diodes on
the display lights up.
3. Rotate the receiver in a circular motion around
yourself. Listen to the signal and observe the lighted
diodes.
4. The direction in which the most diodes light up while
also emitting a higher pitch (Peak Detector) is where the
transmitter is. If the receiver shows too wide a sector,
then the gain should be reduced using the gain control in
order to better determine the transmitter's actual
direction.
5. Listen to the signal to determine if the dog is still or
in motion. The Bark indicator or Tree switch (optional)
emits signals telling if the dog is barking or has treed its
quarry.
6. Determine the distance to the dog by reading the
gradation on the gain control.
Method 2: Tracking without using Peak Detector.
This method is recommended when the
transmitter is located at long distances from
the receiver.
1. Extend the telescopic antenna and turn on the receiver.
2. Set the gain as low as possible, but with an audible
signal.
3. Rotate the receiver in a circular motion around yourself.
Track only using the audible signals. To improve
reception, extend the arm holding the receiver directly
above your head.
4. The transmitter is found in the direction where the
audible signal is the loudest. If the receiver shows too
wide a sector, then the gain should be reduced using the
gain control in order to better determine the transmitter's
actual direction.
5. Listen to the signal to determine if the dog is still or
in motion. The Bark indicator or Tree switch (optional)
emits signals telling if the dog is barking or has treed its
quarry.
6. Determine the distance to the dog by reading the
gradation on the gain control.
Activity sensor:
• If the dog is standing still: 1 signal every other
second.
