Pairing a Dog Collar to the Astro Device

Before you can pair devices to the handheld device, the

handheld device must be close enough to the dog collar device

to touch it.

The handheld device can track up to 20 dogs with dog collar

devices. If you purchase additional dog collar devices, you can

link them to the handheld device.

Select DOG.

Select Add Dog.

Turn off the dog collar device.

Follow the on-screen instructions.

By default, the new dog is named “Dog” and an ID number is

randomly assigned.

An error message could appear if there is a conflict with the

ID number of another dog.

After pairing is complete, you can add the dog collar device to

additional handheld devices using the dog collar device track

code or control code.

Adding a Dog Using the Track and Control Codes

NOTE: This feature varies based on dog collar device type and

feature availability in your area.

Before you can add a dog using the track and control codes, the

dog owner must find the track and control codes (Finding the

Dog ID and Track and Control Codes, page 4) and tell them

to you.

You can use track and control codes to authorize a handheld

device to interact with your dog collar device. If you are not near

the dog you want to add or you cannot put the collar into pairing

mode, you can add the dog using the track and control codes.

Select DOG > Add Dog.

When asked if you are near the collar, select No.

When asked if you know the track and control codes, select

Yes.

Enter the track or control code for the collar, and select

Done.

The dog’s track code allows you to track the dog. The dog’s

control code allows you to both track the dog and access the

collar settings.

Enter the name of the dog, and select Done > OK.

Finding the Dog ID and Track and Control Codes

You can share a dog’s track code so another person can track

your dog. Also, you can share a dog's control code so another

person can track your dog and access the collar settings.

Select Dog List.

Select a dog.

Select Show Info.

Assigning a Dog ID Manually

Before you can assign a dog ID manually, you must turn on the

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

device. You must assign a new ID number to the dog.

Select DOG.

Select a dog.

Select Show Info > MENU > Change ID.

Select an unassigned and nonconflicting ID.

Changing the Update Rate

You can select a longer duration for the update rate to conserve

battery power. The 30-second and 2-minute rates reduce battery

drain, but they record less-detailed dog tracks and statistics.

Bring the handheld device within a few feet of the dog collar

device.

Select DOG.

Select a dog.

Select Show Info > MENU > Change Update Rate.

Select an update rate.

Communication with the Collar

You should keep an unobstructed line of sight between your

handheld device and the dog collar device to produce the best

communication signal. To achieve the best line-of-sight

conditions, you should move to the highest elevation point in

your area (for example, on the top of a hill).
