12 Astro Dog Tracking System Owner’s Manual
doG trackInG
Observe the Dog Tracker page to see that the dog you are
tracking is identied and the direction pointer is pointing
in its general direction. This works best when the dog
is at least thirty feet away; inside that distance a NEAR
message is shown. When NEAR, the pointer is shortened.
The pointer may not point exactly at your dog as the
system only sends location updates every 5 seconds. When
you are close to the dog, GPS uncertainty and compass
inaccuracy can contribute to several degrees of error on the
dog pointer. Hold the Astro 220 level for accuracy.
Observe the dog’s name, an icon showing its status, and
the distance from your current location. (An unknown
status symbol [?], indicates that the Astro 220 cannot
determine the dog’s location.) Use the pointer to locate
the direction to your dog. To change the color of your
dog’s pointer, see page 40.
