Dog Tracking

This section describes communications

between the DC 40 and the Astro,

tracking dogs on the map, and adding

dogs to the Dog List.

Communicating with the

DC 40

The DC 40 that was packaged with

your Astro System was linked with the

Astro at the factory. If you are using

a DC 40 that you ordered separately,

follow the instructions for adding

a new dog on page 10 to establish

communications with the Astro.

Viewing the Dog Status

Press DOG to view the Dog

Tracker page.

NOTE: The DC 40 does not transmit

its location to the Astro, and the Astro

will not indicate the location of the

DC 40, until both units have acquired

satellite signals.

When communicating with the DC 40,

the Dog Tracker page indicates the

direction of the dog, the distance away

from you, and the status of the dog.

The Astro can keep track of ten dogs.

Use the Rocker to scroll through the

list of dogs.
