4 INTRODUCTION
DOG GPS X30 is a device for tracking (locating) your dogs for up to 20 km. It consists
of the transmitter located on the dog’s collar and the receiver (handset) on which
the dog handler tracks the distance and direction towards the dog’s location. The
transmitter gets its position from the GPS satellites, which send the position data to
the dog handler’s receiver via the radio frequency (RF) signal. The transmitter may
include training module (X30T set), which enables the stimulation pulse to be sent
from the receiver for up to 20 km.
The receiver may be connected to a mobile phone or tablet (using the Android
operating system) via wireless communication and all paired devices may be viewed
using the Dogtrace GPS application on the map.
The DOG GPS X30 also has additional features – compass, FENCE – acoustic boundary,
which provides information that the dog moved beyond the set distance from the
receiver. It also has the BEEPER feature, which simply enables to determine whether
the dog is moving or standing still. The receiver facilitates saving its current position
and then navigating to that position (waypoint feature).
4.1 DOG GPS X30 features
Range between the transmitter and the receiver is up to 20 km in direct visibility
(depending on terrain, vegetation and other factors)
Tracking up to 13 dogs, hunters or waypoints
Highly sensitive GPS in the receiver and transmitter

Waterproof receiver and transmitter
Long battery life
2 acoustic signal modes – training / localization
15 stimulation pulse levels (GPS X30T only)
Light mode for identifying dog in the dark (GPS X30T only)
Switching channels for communication between the transmitter and receiver
Compass feature
FENCE – acoustic boundary to set the area for the dog
BEEPER – detection of dog in motion/standing still
Waypoint – option to store 13 GPS receiver coordinates – navigation to these
points
CAR mode – mode for using the receiver (handset) in the vehicle
The receiver is compatible with transmitters (collars) X20 / X20+ (some functions
are limited)
ECMA is convinced that electronic training collars, whilst responsibly used and in

WARNING: If the collar is too loose, the transmitter is likely to move and repeated
friction may irritate your dog’s skin. Furthermore, in this case, the contact points
may not touch the skin surface in required manner and consequently, the
training module may not function correctly. We do not recommend keeping the
dog’s collar at the same place for several hours as it could cause skin irritation. If it
is necessary for your dog to wear the collar for a long time, change the position of
the transmitter on the neck regularly. If the collar with the transmitter is too tight,
it may cause pressure sores where the contact points touch the skin. If this occurs,
do not use the training module until all traces of irritation disappear.

The digital compass calibration will be lost if the receiver is located in the vicinity
of another object’s or device’s magnetic eld; in such event, the compass must
be recalibrated.
Fig. 5 Fig. 6 Fig. 7
3. Carry out at least 10 rotations as per Figs. 5 and 6, whilst still pointing to the
North. For quality calibration, each single rotation should be carried out with a
slight deviation from the direction northwards (see Fig. 7). Greater number of and
slower rotations will result in better calibration. Press the back/return push button
to finish.

17
ENGLISH
WARNING: If other receivers (dog handlers) are paired with your receiver, you will
no longer be able to track them after changing the channel.These hunters would
also have to switch their receivers and transmitters to the same channel.
8.1 Tracking
The transmitter (collar) and the receiver (handset) have built-in GPS receiver by
which both detect their position. The transmitter sends information about its positi-
on by means of the radio signal (RF) to the receiver, which shows the direction and
dog’s distance from the handler on the display.
Receiver display is divided into three parts:
Receiver information panel – top line displays the receiver’s data – battery charge
status, GPS position accuracy, magnetic north direction (compass), switching on
the BEEPER and FENCE features relating to one of the paired dogs.
Main navigation panel – middle display section provides information about the
currently selected transmitter (other receiver). Illuminated pointer arrow shows
the direction to the tracked dog location. In the middle of the display, distance
between the dog and the handler is shown. Different dogs are displayed by using
the / push buttons.
Transmitter information panel – bottom line shows data relating to the next
paired transmitter in sequence – battery charge status, RF signal strength, GPS
position accuracy.
8 DOG GPS X30 FEATURES
NOTE: If the dog’s direction and distance indicator ashes, the receiver has not
received the GPS data for a long time or the receiver/transmitter has no GPS
signal. In such case, the direction and distance to the last known position is
indicated on the display.
WARNING: If the direction indicator does not point correctly towards your dog,
recalibrate the digital compass.
Status indicated on the receiver’s display:
– Receiver has not received information from the transmitter relating to
the dog's position for a long time.
– If the RF signal strength indicator ashes, it signies that it has received
location data from the selected collar.
– If only the RF aerial ashes – it does not receive any RF signal from the transmitter.
– Receiver or transmitter does not have the GPS position.
6. If the channel is changed correctly message will show on all transmitters’
displays. If the change fails, the message will appear on the display.
Repeat the whole procedure from the step number 4.
7. By repeatedly pressing return to the receiver’s main screen.
8. Make sure that you receive RF signals from all your transmitters on your receiver. If
no, try switching the channel again to the desired receiver / .

8.2 Training
This feature enables correction of undesirable behaviour up to the distance of
20 km. The basic DOG GPS X30 kit enables using the acoustic command. DOG GPS
X30T (training) kit is enhanced by the use of the correction stimulation impulse.
Another feature of the training kit is the light indication of the dog in the dark with
the aid of powerful LEDs.
Acoustic signal (tone):
The basic DOG GPS X30/X30T kit has two types of acoustic signal.
The training acoustic signal ( ) is used as the sound command, which
may precede the stimulation impulse and it is a very effective deterrent. Replaces
whistle, whose volume the dog perceives in the same manner, even though it is far
away.
Localization acoustic signal ( ) acoustic signal is used to locate the dog
in dark or dense growth. This signal is audible up to the distance of 30 m.
This command is activated by the push button. Switching between the training
( ) and localization ( ) tones is carried out in the MENU.
1. Long press the MENU push button.
2. Select the item by using / arrows; long press the MENU push
button to confirm.
3. Select the transmitter (collar) position you wish to set – to ; long press
the MENU push button.
4. Select by using / arrows, long press the MENU push button.
5. Select the required type of acoustic signal ( / ).
6. By repeatedly pressing return to the main screen.
– No paired transmitter at the given position.
– Receiver and transmitter are closer to each other than the accuracy of the
GPS position.
Stimulation impulse (IMPULSE): (ONLY GPS X30T)
This feature enables to activate warning in the transmitter (collar) in the form of safe
stimulation impulses transmitted by the two contact points. Stimulation impulses do
not hurt the dog. Impulse is very unpleasant to the dog, and consequently, will soon
make connection between the oral command, acoustic signal and uncomfortable
feeling on the neck.
Setting the impulse strength is carried out in MENU in the same manner as the
selection of weak/strong acoustic signal, with the difference that in Point 4, select
and in Point 5 select the impulse strength where 0 is without impulse,
1 is the weakest impulse and 15 is the strongest impulse.
This command is sent to the transmitter (collar), which is selected on the receiver

TIP: If the stimulation impulse is send to a dog using mobile phone application,
the strength of the stimulation impulse for this dog is automatically adjusted to
the set value in the receiver and vice versa.
Light feature (flash): (ONLY GPS X30T)
The light feature may be used to locate the dog in the dark. The function is activated
in MENU. The start-up procedure is the same as for the selection of the acoustic
signal volume strength, with the difference that in Point 4, is selected and
in Point 5, is selected. A simpler option is to activate the feature in the Dogtrace
GPS application.
8.3 Compass feature – determining the North
The N symbol indicates the direction of the magnetic north. If the two arrows are
simultaneously lit, direction to the North is between them.
8.4 FENCE – acoustic boundary
The FENCE feature alerts you when the dog moves beyond the set area boundary,
which is adjustable within the range of 30 m to a maximum of 2 km from the receiver.
The FENCE feature may be activated for more dogs; settings are stored for each dog
separately.
If the dog moves beyond the set boundary, the receiver will emit long intermittent
beeping and the circle, for this dog, located under the direction indicator will ash
on the receiver display. To nd out which dog has crossed the set boundary, switch
between paired transmitters until you nd the ashing circle.
When this feature is turned on, the receiver must have good GPS signal:
1. Select the dog number for which you wish to enable FENCE on the main navigation
panel.
2. Long press the FENCE push button.
3. Set the acoustic boundary distance by / arrows.
4. Press briey to return to the main screen.
After the feature is turn on, FENCE is displayed on the main panel display. The top
line of the display shows FENCE if the feature is activated on at least one of the
collars paired with the receiver.
If the receiver starts to emit shorter intermittent beeping, it signies that the
transmitter (collar) or the receiver does not have the GPS or RF signal. This may
happen if the dog enters building where no GPS signal is available, the RF signal is
out of range or the dog's transmitter battery is at.
WARNING: Receiver should have the strongest GPS signal to ensure that the
FENCE feature is accurate. If the signal is weak, indication that dog crossed the
boundary will not be accurate (given by the GPS accuracy).
NOTE: To use the FENCE and tracking features simultaneously, pair one dog into
two positions in the receiver. Then, in one of the positions the FENCE feature may
be activated and use the second one for tracking.
