TRACK YOUR DOG
The DOG TRACKING screen allows you to view your location and track the location of your dog(s).
TO USE TRACKING MODE
NOTE: You must have a clear view of the sky in order for the GPS to acquire a signal. The “Waiting for Lock”
message will display until a good GPS lock is acquired. The Handheld Device will beep once and move to the
tracking window when GPS lock is acquired.
From the main menu, select
DOG TRACKING. The tracking screen displays.
Your location is marked by a black crosshair (
+) in the center of the display.
Dogs are marked by a direction arrow showing their direction of travel or
an octagon if the dog is stationary. If you have set a start point, it appears
as an
X on the tracking display. Any active way points are marked by their
respective number. The upper portion of the screen also displays your
respective status, current map scale, and compass direction.
A table on the lower portion of the screen shows the status of the first three
dogs being tracked as follows:
• The name of each dog is displayed in the color of its assigned collar.
• The type and level of stimulation assigned to STIM button 1 for
each dog: C1 = continuous static stimulation on level 1, T = tone,
V = vibration, M= momentary (nick), R= rising static stimulation,
P1= user programmable level 1, P2= user programmable level 2.
• The distance of each dog from your location is displayed.
TO ADJUST THE SCALE
On the DOG TRACKING screen, press the left or right arrow on the Menu Selection Pad to manually adjust the
scale from 100 yards to 75 miles or set the scale to
AUTO which will automatically adjust to keep your dog(s) on
the display. The current scale is displayed just below the tracking area.
