Maximum Gps Range And Accuracy; Troubleshooting - Dog trace X30T Operating Manual

10 MAXIMUM RANGE AND GPS ACCURACY
DOG GPS X30 may be used up to a distance of 20 km (with direct visibility between
the transmitter and the receiver). The maximum GPS range and accuracy are
influenced by a number of factors - weather, terrain, vegetation, etc.
In dense forest or built-up terrain, the GPS position will be less accurate and the range
will be much shorter, which is not due to defective equipment but to physical laws
and technical capabilities (within permitted European standards). If the GPS signal is
weak, the distance will not be accurate and will vary
according to the accuracy of the GPS receiver and the
transmitter.
Ensuring maximum range and accuracy:
Check that the transmitter and the receiver
batteries are appropriately charged.
Fit the transmitter on the dog's neck with the RF
aerial pointing upwards.
Hold the receiver as high as possible with the RF
antenna pointing upwards, almost perpendicular
to the ground (to be able to recognise the direction
on the direction indicator).

1. Please read this Operating Manual again to check whether the problem is caused
by the receiver's and/or transmitter's weak batteries and charge them if required.
2. If the device is quickly discharging, the battery's lifespan is near its end; replace it
with a new one.
3. If the transmitter battery is quickly discharging, set the longer updating frequency.
4. If the transmitter does not communicate with the receiver, repeat pairing
procedure – refer to Paragraph 7.5 Pairing – encoding transmitter with receiver,
Page 14.
5. In the event that inaccurate indication of the dog's direction from you occurs,
carry out the compass calibration again – refer to Paragraph 7.8 Digital compass
calibration, Page 15.
6. If the device does not show the position exactly, calibrate the compass, find
the best GPS signal, and make sure the RF and GPS aerials on both devices are
pointing to the sky.
7. If the compass disappears in the receiver's information panel (LCD top line) – CAR
MODE is on (Paragraph 8.7).
8. If you are unable to carry out pairing of the receiver with your mobile phone,
verify that the wireless communiction is active in the MENU – selection
9. If the problem persists, contact your dealer.
