CHANGE COMMUNICATION SETTINGS
The COMMUNICATION screen allows you to set the User ID, GPS channel, and E-Collar channel
(optional). The User ID is a unique identifier used by the Handheld Device and shared with the GPS
Collar. The GPS-channel is the radio channel used for communication between the GPS Collar
and the Handheld Device, while the E-Collar channel is the radio channel used for communication
between the optional E-Collar module and the Handheld Device. The collar learns the User ID and
GPS channel during the pairing process.
The Handheld Device uses an ID value to distinguish it from other Handheld Devices. This ID is
factory set and for most users will never need attention. The ID value can be viewed on either the
STATUS or ABOUT screens.
If the factory-set User ID on your Handheld Device conflicts with another Handheld Device or
similar device, you should change the User ID to eliminate the conflict. Alternately, if two users
want to have the ability to monitor the same dog(s) with each user operating his own Handheld
Device, they can choose to set their User IDs to match.
The only reason to change the GPS channel is if there is outside interference (other radios in the
area) causing communications problems.
TO CHANGE THE USER ID:
NOTE: Changing User ID requires that the collar be paired again to the handheld (See STEP 3).
1. From the main menu, select SETTINGS > COMMUNICATION > USER ID.
2. Press the up or down arrows to select a user ID number from 0 – 100.
NOTE: The User ID value is a number from 0 to 100 that is used to alter the actual ID value that the
Handheld Device uses for communication. A value of 0 is used to revert back to the factory set ID.
3. Press the right arrow to confirm your selection.
4. At the prompt, “ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO CONTINUE?” select YES.
5. Press BACK to return to the main menu.
