Astro Dog Tracking System Owner’s Manual 3
Dog Tracking
To assign a new ID number to a dog and change
the update rate:
1. On the Dog Information page, press MENU > Change
Comm. Settings .
2. Select an unassigned and nonconflicting ID > OK .
3. Change the update rate, if desired. Both 10-second
and 30-second updates reduce battery drain, but
they create a less-detailed dog track and collected
statistics.
4. Ensure that the Astro 220 is within a few feet of the
DC 30.
5. Complete the setup wizard instructions.
Tips for Successful Tracking
Use a fully charged DC 30. A fully charged DC 30
operates for approximately 17 hours when using
5-second interval reporting.
Use line-of-sight radio communication. The Astro 220
and DC 30 use radio signals to communicate. Objects
in the path of radio signals degrade the quality of
the signals. Keeping an unobstructed line of sight
•
•
between you and your dog’s DC 30 produces the best
communication signal. Obstructed radio waves result
in a poor signal. To achieve the best line-of-sight
conditions, move to the highest elevation point in your
area (for example, on the top of a hill).
