Getting Started
Charging the DC 20
Every DC 20 is partially charged before leaving the
factory, so you don’t need to charge before using it.
However, it is recommended that you fully charge the DC
20 before using it on a hunt.
To charge the DC 20:
1. Connect the charging assembly to an appropriate
electrical source.
2. Slide the slotted spade connector into the matching
slot beneath the power switch.
3. Charge until the blue LED on the top of the unit turns
off.
NOTE: Charging a fully depleted DC 20 battery requires
3-1/2 to 4 hours.
To turn the DC 20 on and off:
1. Press and hold the POWER key. When the unit turns
on, the LED turns red and blinks at a steady pulse.
2. To turn off, press and hold the POWER key.

Initializing the GPS Receivers
The rst time you turn on your Astro 220 and DC 20,
each GPS receiver must collect overhead satellite signal
data to establish its current location. To ensure proper
initialization, the Astro 220 and DC 20 are shipped from
the factory in AutoLocate
®
mode, which allows each
receiver to “nd itself” anywhere on Earth whenever you
turn it on. To receive satellite signals, both units must be
outdoors and have a clear view of the sky.

6 Astro Dog Tracking System Owner’s Manual
Getting Started
To initialize your Astro 220 and DC 20:
Hold the units in front of you with the antennas
held upward. While the Astro 220 GPS receiver is
searching for the satellite signals, observe the GPS
Signal Strength bars in the Status Bar at the top of
the page. When the receiver has signals from at least
three satellites, the GPS bars ll to indicate signal
strength and a location x, while the LED on the DC
20 double blinks at each pulse when a location x is
achieved.
Calibrating the Astro 220 Compass
It is recommended that the Astro 220 compass be
calibrated the rst time you use it, after periods of
storage, after you install new batteries, or when exposed
to temperature changes of greater that 20°F.
Calibrate the electronic compass outdoors. The accuracy
of the electronic compass is adversely affected if the unit
is not held level or you are near objects that generate
magnetic elds, such as cars or buildings.
To calibrate the electronic compass:
1. From the Dog Tracker page or Compass page, press
MENU to open the options menu.
2. Select Calibrate Compass to open the Calibration
page.
3. Select Start and follow on-screen directions for
holding and turning the unit.
A “Just Right,” “Too Fast,” or “Too Slow” message
appears notifying you to adjust your turning speed,
as needed. Hold the unit level while turning.
A “Calibration Successful” message appears when
nished. Press ENTER to exit.
If a “Calibration Failed” message appears, repeat
the process.
•
•
•
Hold the unit
level and turn
slowly.

Astro Dog Tracking System Owner’s Manual 9
Dog Tracking
Dog Tracking
This section explains some of the more common
operations you can perform with your Astro 220,
including communicating with the DC 20, tracking dogs,
and adding dogs to the Dog List.
Communicating with the DC 20
After the Astro 220 and the DC 20 have been turned on
and both have a GPS location x, you can then ensure
the DC 20 is communicating with the Astro 220. If you
are using the DC 20 that was packaged with your Astro
220 System, it has been linked with the Astro 220 at the
factory, so you can begin tracking immediately. If you
are using a new DC 20, then also follow instructions for
adding a new dog on page 13.
To view communication with the dog’s DC 20:
Press the DOG key to view the Dog Tracker page with
dog listed below the compass.
When in communication with the DC 20, this page
indicates the direction of the dog, distance away from
you, and status of the dog’s activity. The Astro 220 can
keep track of ten dogs, but only three at a time are shown
on the Dog Tracker page. When additional dogs are being
tracked, use the ROCKER to scroll through the list of
dogs.
To view details about a selected dog unit:
Use the ROCKER key to select the dog on the list and
then press ENTER to view its Dog Info page.

position reporting update rate, the user assigned DC 20
ID number (0-49), the DC 20 battery capacity, the DC 20
to Astro 220 communication signal strength, and the DC
20 GPS signal strength.
Naming the dog
By default the Astro 220 assigns the name Dog (Dog 1,
Dog 2, etc.) to every Dog Unit (DC 20) linked to it. When
you use the ROCKER, to select the Name Field on the
Dog Info page and press ENTER, an on-screen keyboard
appears. Use the ROCKER to move about the keyboard
to place your dog’s name in the Name Field. Select OK
and press ENTER when done.

the dog begins to move away from you, begin tracking
using the Dog Tracker page or the Map page.
Make certain that your compass is calibrated and you are
holding the Astro 220 level to achieve the most accurate
readings.

12 Astro Dog Tracking System Owner’s Manual
Dog Tracking
Observe the Dog Tracker page to see that the dog you are
tracking is identied and the direction pointer is pointing
in its general direction. This works best when the dog
is at least thirty feet away; inside that distance a NEAR
message is shown. When NEAR, the pointer is shortened.
The pointer may not point exactly at your dog as the
system only sends location updates every 5 seconds.
When you are close to the dog, GPS uncertainty and
compass inaccuracy can contribute to several degrees
of error on the dog pointer. Hold the Astro 220 level for
accuracy.
Observe the dog’s name, an icon showing its status, and
the distance from your current location. (An unknown
status symbol [?], indicates that the Astro 220 cannot
determine the dog’s location.) Use the pointer to locate
the direction to your dog. To change the color of your
dog’s pointer, see page 40.
