Monitoring mode begins just like tracking mode by searching for the selected tag.
Once the searching operation is successful (10 to 30 seconds) the display will
appear as shown in Figure 14.
In monitor mode three things are different from tracking mode:
1. The locator only communicates with the tag once every 40 seconds rather
than once every 5 seconds.
2. The direction information is not calculated or displayed by the locator.
3. The received signal strength from the tag is compared to the boundary you
selected and an alarm is issued if the tag moves outside of that boundary.
The alarm may be:
a. Beeping only (On Mode)
b. Beeping plus remote alarm activation (Remote Mode)
c. Silent alarm. (Off Mode)
To turn the audible alarm off press and hold the Down Arrow button for 2
seconds. Each time you do this the locator will toggle between silent and normal
mode. To check the mode make short presses of the select button, if the beeper
sounds then the mode is On.
If the monitored tag strays outside the selected boundary area and stays there for
two consecutive checks (40 to 80 seconds) then the Alarm will be activated on
the locator. The alarm display will appear as shown in Figure 15.
