Methods to Add a Dog Collar Device to a
Handheld Device
If you purchased the dog collar device and the handheld device
separately, you must add the dog collar device to the handheld
device. You can add up to 20 dog collar devices to one
handheld device.
Using MURS/VHF
: Allows you to add a dog collar device after
you have placed the dog collar device into pairing mode by
pressing the power key.
This method is helpful when you are adding a new accessory
collar to the system prior to leaving for the hunt (
Dog to the Alpha 100F Handheld Using Wireless Pairing
).
Entering the track and train codes
: Allows you to add a dog
collar device that you do not own and that is not in the area.
The dog's owner must determine if you can only track the dog
or can track and train the dog. This method requires the dog's
owner to find and communicate the codes to the person
adding the dog collar device.
This method is helpful when you would like to add a dog
collar device during a hunt, but you are not near the dog. For
example, you are adding another member of your hunting
party's dog collar device to your handheld device, but you do
not own the dog collar device (
).
NOTE:
This feature varies based on dog collar device type
and feature availability in your area. You may see track
codes only or track and train codes.
