TURNING YOUR HOUND FINDER GPS ON/OFF

There are two ways to turn on your HOUND FINDER tag:
1. Remotely from the R2 FINDER receiver (short distance). You can turn on the receiver in two modes:
a) Normal: This is the mode for normal use.
b) DOG STAT: With this mode, you can store all of the positions of the tag and download them
onto a computer using the DOG STAT software.
(See the instructions for the R2 FINDER - Add tag.)
2. With the magnetic switch: Hold the magnet up to the STAND-BY symbol (opposite from the LED).
The LED will shine constantly for two seconds and then blink twice to show that the tag has been
activated (in normal mode).
For the next 30 seconds, the green and red LEDs will alternate. During this time you can pair the
transmitter with the receiver. Once the 30 seconds have elapsed, the LED will come on and blink
every two seconds.
To turn off the tag with the magnet, follow the same steps as above until the LED blinks three times
and turns off. (Figure. 1)

PAIRING WITH YOUR R2 FINDER RECEIVER

The first time that you use the tag, you will need pair it with the receiver. To pair it with the receiver, use the
magnet to turn it on. The tag can only be paired during the first 30 seconds, during which time the red and
green LEDs will alternate. If you do not pair the tag within 30 seconds, turn it off with the magnet and start
over.
(See the instructions for the RECEIVER R2 FINDER / Add tag.)
