Buttons at the bottom of the page allow you to route to the
dog’s last location, view that location on the Map page, and
reset distance traveled and average speed data for your dog.
NOTE
: If you have purchased additional DC 20 Dog Units, they may
be added to the Astro 220 Handheld Unit dog list to allow multiple
dog tracking as explained in the Astro 220 Owner’s Manual.

Attach the DC 20 to Your Dog
Initially, use only one DC 20 and dog to learn how to use the
Astro Dog Tracking System before taking it into the field. Before
using it in an actual hunt, it is recommended that you fully charge
the DC 20. (See the Owner’s Manual.) Do not operate the DC 20
without the antenna attached, as damage can occur.
Using the DC 20 with the Dog Harness
Remove the collar attachment plate, if already attached, from
the base of the DC 20. Make certain the DC 20 is on and is
communicating with the Astro 220.
Lay out the dog harness upside-down and separate the hook
and loop closure revealing the pocket for the DC 20.
Insert the DC 20, antenna first. Orient the DC 20 so that it will
be in line with the dog’s spine when the harness is attached
and the Power key and LED are visible through the opening in
the harness.

Open the collar strap and extend it out. Facing the dog,
slide the end of the strap under the collar.
Fip the harness over onto the dog’s back and fasten the
strap in place under the harness.
Position the harness just behind the dog’s shoulders
with the collar strap extended from the dog’s collar. Then
wrap the torso straps under the dog’s chest and connect
the hook and loop portions until snug enough to prevent
shifting.
