An error message could appear if there
is a conflict with the ID number of
another dog.
Dog Signal Troubleshooting
Each dog you track has its own ID
number. If two dogs within range of
the Astro have the same ID, the Astro
warns you of a conflicting ID signal.
Follow the on-screen instructions to
resolve the conflict.
When possible, you should allow the
Astro to automatically assign IDs. If
necessary, you can manually assign a
new ID number to a dog.
assigning a Dog iD Manually
This requires wireless communication
with the DC 40. You must turn on
the DC 40 and bring it within range
of the Astro. You must assign a new
ID number to the dog and change the
update rate.
