This section explains some of the more common
operations you can perform with your Astro 220,
including communicating with the DC 20, tracking dogs,
and adding dogs to the Dog List.
Communicating with the DC 20
After the Astro 220 and the DC 20 have been turned on
and both have a GPS location x, you can then ensure
the DC 20 is communicating with the Astro 220. If you
are using the DC 20 that was packaged with your Astro
220 System, it has been linked with the Astro 220 at the
factory, so you can begin tracking immediately. If you
are using a new DC 20, then also follow instructions for
adding a new dog on page 13.
To view communication with the dog’s DC 20:
Press the DOG key to view the Dog Tracker page
with dog listed below the compass.
When in communication with the DC 20, this page
indicates the direction of the dog, distance away from
you, and status of the dog’s activity. The Astro 220 can
keep track of ten dogs, but only three at a time are shown
on the Dog Tracker page. When additional dogs are being
tracked, use the ROCKER to scroll through the list of
dogs.
To view details about a selected dog unit:
Use the ROCKER key to select the dog on the list
and then press ENTER to view its Dog Info page.
