Get to Know Your System
Your RoamEO SeekR system consists of a Handheld Receiver and a GPS Collar
Transmitter that work together to track your dog’s activity in real time using GPS
technology.
The Handheld Receiver calculates your pet’s location based on data from the GPS
How the RoamEO SeekR Works
The RoamEO SeekR uses GPS technology to locate and track your dog’s movements.
The system acquires precise location data from the constellation of GPS satellites
circling the earth to pinpoint your pet’s exact location. The Collar Transmitter attached
to your dog’s existing collar sends its location data to the Handheld Receiver via a
proprietary radio circuit where a firmware algorithm triangulates the data and displays
your dog’s location in real time. The system automatically updates the GPS data and
the Handheld Receiver continually displays the new location information.
The RoamEO SeekR also includes many features designed for active dogs and their
owners. Refer to the Create GPS Fence section for instructions on building any one of
three dierent geo-perimeter options. The ShadowFence Tracking Screen creates a
circular GPS perimeter that follows your movements, ideal for walking or hiking with
your dog. The Home feature will commit a GPS waypoint to system memory, great for
guiding you back to a specific location such as a car or campsite. This is helpful in
environments where the terrain may be harsh or unfamiliar.
Collar Transmitter and then displays your dog’s movements on the color LCD. You can
select from any one of three tracking screens to view your pet’s location, making it
simple to track your dog in any environment.
The GPS Collar Transmitter attaches to your dog’s existing collar and continuously
transmits its location data to the Handheld Receiver. The Transmitter is waterproof and
is designed for use in rain, snow, mud or any other harsh conditions your dog will
encounter.
The USB Wall Charger and the charging cable are used for charging both the Handheld
Receiver and GPS Collar Transmitter.
Attaching the GPS Collar Transmitter
The Collar Transmitter is designed to attach to the top of your dog’s existing collar
using the Collar Clips provided with your system.
1. Measure the width of your dog’s collar.
Collar width: between 3 / 4” – 1” Use 1” collar clips
Collar width: 3 / 4” or smaller Use 3 / 4” collar clips
2. Using the appropriate size collar clips, attach two clips to your dog’s existing
collar, spacing the clips approximately six inches apart.
3. Place your dog’s collar on a flat surface with the
attached clips facing up. Attach the Collar Transmitter
to your dog’s collar by snapping the clips into the
receptacles molded in the Collar Transmitter.
4. For optimal GPS performance, orientate
the Collar Transmitter so that the power
switch is as near as possible to the top
of your dog’s neck. This orientation
provides the widest view of the sky for
the GPS antenna embedded in the
Collar Transmitter.

instructions on creating a geo-fence perimeter). If your dog exits the perimeter, the
fence perimeter will turn red and an audible alert will sound. Depending on the scale of
the tracking screen, all or part of your geo-fence may not appear on the screen. For
example, if the tracking screen is set to the smallest scale possible and your geo-fence
is very large, the geo-fence will not be visible because it is outside the scale of the

Hint: before starting either the Collar Sync or Erase Collar Sync process, have the Collar Transmitter
you wish to sync or erase nearby as you will be prompted for it as part of both of these procedures.
Do not power up your Collar Transmitter until prompted to do so.

Create a GPS Fence
The GPS Fence feature is a user-defined geo-fence perimeter that provides an audible
alert on your Handheld device should your pet exit the established boundary. The
RoamEO SeekR system provides three options for building a geo-fence:
* Circular: User creates a circular perimeter around a center GPS waypoint.
* Four-sided: User creates a four-sided perimeter around a center GPS waypoint.
* Custom: User creates a custom perimeter by establishing GPS fence posts around a
designated area.
Before creating any of the geo-fence options, please note the following
recommendations:
* Determine the size of the perimeter you desire, noting any landmarks, streets,
property boundaries or other areas of concern. It is best to walk the actual perimeter
you want to establish to make sure it works for your situation. For a Custom geo-fence,
it can be helpful to set markers to designate the location of the specific fence posts
you wish to establish before actually creating the fence on your system.
* The smallest diameter for a Circular geo-fence and the smallest width for a
Four-sided geo-fence are both 50 feet.
* It is helpful to have knowledge of any critical distances before you create your
geo-fence perimeter. Take note of the location of streets, property lines or any other
areas you wish to keep your pet out of. In general, the accuracy of a GPS waypoint can
vary between 6 -10 feet. Therefore, we recommend setting a perimeter at least 20-30
feet away from sensitive areas if possible. This will allow you enough time to react
should your pet exit the perimeter in that area.

Create a GPS Fence
The GPS Fence feature is a user-defined geo-fence perimeter that provides an audible
alert on your Handheld device should your pet exit the established boundary. The
RoamEO SeekR system provides three options for building a geo-fence:
* Circular: User creates a circular perimeter around a center GPS waypoint.
* Four-sided: User creates a four-sided perimeter around a center GPS waypoint.
* Custom: User creates a custom perimeter by establishing GPS fence posts around a
designated area.
Before creating any of the geo-fence options, please note the following
recommendations:
* Determine the size of the perimeter you desire, noting any landmarks, streets,
property boundaries or other areas of concern. It is best to walk the actual perimeter
you want to establish to make sure it works for your situation. For a Custom geo-fence,
it can be helpful to set markers to designate the location of the specific fence posts
you wish to establish before actually creating the fence on your system.
* The smallest diameter for a Circular geo-fence and the smallest width for a
Four-sided geo-fence are both 50 feet.
* It is helpful to have knowledge of any critical distances before you create your
geo-fence perimeter. Take note of the location of streets, property lines or any other
areas you wish to keep your pet out of. In general, the accuracy of a GPS waypoint can
vary between 6 -10 feet. Therefore, we recommend setting a perimeter at least 20-30
feet away from sensitive areas if possible. This will allow you enough time to react
should your pet exit the perimeter in that area.

The Circular and Four-sided GPS fences are created by establishing a geo-perimeter
around a center GPS waypoint. Only the Handheld Receiver is required to create a
geo-fence perimeter.

5. indicates a GPS lock has been achieved. Use and
to modify geo-fence to desired size. When completed, select.
Hint: To improve the accuracy of your geo-fence, wait 2 – 3 minutes
after a GPS lock is acquired before saving your fence. This will improve
the accuracy of your waypoint by allowing the GPS to ‘dial in’ to a
more exact location.
Hint: The smallest geo-fence diameter is 50 feet; the largest
geo-fence diameter is one mile. Smaller diameter fences will be less
eective due to general GPS accuracy and float. If you are using a
geo-fence with a small diameter and are seeing frequent false alerts,
please consider increasing the diameter of your geo-fence
incrementally until these events decrease or are eliminated.
Hint: Only one circular and one
four-sided fence can be stored in system
memory. You must erase an existing
circular or four-sided geo-fence before
you can create a new one. Refer for
Erase GPS Fence for instructions.
