Activating the Search Mode (tracking your dog)
As your dog will not necessarily remain at his last positon until you are with him,
you can „track“ him in certain distances.
For this, you send the command
search=X
to GEODOG (X = your preferred search
radius; 500m is preset by default). The commands searchon / searchoff will
activate or deactivate the search function with the latest radius used.
You will receive a new SMS message as soon as your dog has moved away from
his last position by this distance.
The distance value behind SEARCH in the SMS refers to the first location where
your dog was when you initiated the search mode (= starting point). Thus, you
will know if your dog has moved further away in the meantime when you get to
this starting point.
