Location Alerts

Location alerts notify you when your dogs or contacts enter or
exit a particular location. You can create a custom geofence or
use a radius around your current location.
A geofence is an invisible fence around an area and is created
using points on the map. The virtual boundaries of a geofence
are accurate up to approximately 10 ft. (3 m). Geofences
perform optimally when sized to cover an area encompassing
an average sized backyard (approximately ¼ acre).

You can set up an invisible fence around an area and receive
an alert when a dog or contact enters and exits that area.

Dog Training

In addition to tracking your dog, the Alpha system can help train
your dog. The Alpha system can both train and track your dog
from up to 9 miles away.
Training information is available at www.garmin.com/alpha. You
should research and investigate the training methods best
suited for you, your dog, and your needs. This manual provides
some basics about training, but you are encouraged to research
more about training.
When used properly, the collar is a very effective training tool to
aid your dog in reaching its full potential. The use of the collar
should be part of an overall training program.
Begin training your dog on a leash, without the collar. You
should train your dog how to heel, sit, and come to you. After
the dog shows a grasp of the concepts of these three basic
commands, you begin training with the collar and the leash.
Finally, when the dog consistently obeys commands using the
leash and collar, you can remove the leash to train with only the
collar.

Setting Up the Training Keys for One
Intensity Level
Before you can assign the training keys to a dog, you must add
the dog to the handheld device
By default, the training keys are set to the lowest stimulation
setting, with momentary (M), continuous (C), and tone (T) for
each key. This mode is best for when you are training just one
dog. When you train more than one dog, it is helpful to
customize each training key for a dog and intensity level

In this mode, the left key provides momentary simulation. The
center key provides continuous stimulations. The right key
provides a tone.

Customizing the Training Keys

Before you can assign the training keys to a dog, you must add
a dog to the handheld device
You can change the mode of the training keys to customize
each key for a specific stimulation intensity level and for each
dog. This mode is helpful when you are training multiple dogs. If
you are training one dog, it might be easier to only set the
intensity level
