Disabling Dog Data Broadcast

By default, the handheld device broadcasts dog data to

compatible devices. You can disable data broadcasting to keep

your data from being seen on other compatible devices. See the

owner's manual for your compatible device for more information.

Bark Detection

.

A barking icon appears on the dog tracking page and the map

page.

When the dog collar device is active and properly fitted on the

dog (

Fitting the Collar on Your Dog

, page 2

), it detects barks

automatically. After bark detection is enabled, you can set up a

bark alert (

Setting Dog Alerts

, page 4

).

Enabling Rescue Mode

Before you can enable rescue mode, you must turn on the dog

collar device and bring it within 3 m (10 ft.) of the handheld

device.

If you are concerned about your dog becoming lost and running

the battery down, you can enable rescue mode. Rescue mode

extends the battery life of the collar to allow for more time to

locate the dog. You can preserve the battery life of your dog

collar device by enabling a low power, battery-saving mode from

your handheld device. This reduces the frequency that the collar

updates its position to the handheld device.

From the dog tracking page, select a dog.

The dog information page appears.

.

Wait until the confirmation message appears before you

release your dog.

Profiles

Profiles are a collection of settings that optimize your device

based on how you are using it. For example, the settings and

views are different when you use the device for hunting than

when geocaching.

Profiles are associated with the activity screens, including the

home screen.

When you are using a profile and you change settings, such as

data fields or units of measurement, the changes are saved

automatically as part of the profile.
