Searching mode by pressing the Select button when necessary. Moving
to higher ground when possible will extend the range of the system
3. Once communications with your pet’s tag have started (i.e. the locator
is beeping once every 5 seconds) use the directional display to
determine in which general direction to proceed. If you cannot get a
directional arrow take the following steps:
a. Make certain you are holding the locator in front of you, waist
high and level to the ground.
b. If possible, move to a clear, unobstructed area away from
buildings, automobiles, hills, etc. Higher ground is always better if
available.
c. If you do not get a reading facing one direction, turn 90 degrees
and try again. Once you get a directional arrow, always turn to
face directly in that direction, with the arrow straight ahead.
Walking away from the tag will not produce good results.
d. When you first get a directional indication it is best to qualify it to
make certain that you are moving towards the tag and not away
from it. To do this, turn your body so that the arrow points straight
ahead now turn 90 degrees and check to see if the arrow still
points in the same general direction. If it does then that direction is
correct. If the arrow now points in the opposite direction of what it
did originally, turn your body to face that direction, if the arrow
confirms that direction then it is the correct path to your pet.
e. When far away from your pet the directional arrows will show the
general path to take to get closer (e.g. up the street vs. down the
street). If the pet is far away you know that its direction from your
location cannot change quickly so don’t try to gauge each step
based on the arrow, just move along the road or path until you see
a consistent change in the indicated direction. Verify that the
signal strength is generally increasing (more signal strength bars,
higher percentage readings and/or more beeps) as you move along.
f. When you are close to your pet the directional information will
become much more sensitive. For example, if your pet was hiding
in a bush just to the right of the path you are walking on you might
see the arrow point forward as you approach. Then 5 seconds later
