Tracking a DC 50 with an Alpha 100

It is not possible to directly pair a DC™ 50 dog tracking collar to an Alpha® 100 handheld. It is, however, possible to transfer a DC 50 collar to an Alpha 100 handheld from an Astro 430 handheld using the track/control codes or sharing wirelessly.¹ It is important to make sure that all devices have the latest software version to ensure the pairing and transfer process goes smoothly. 

Pairing a DC 50 Collar to an Astro 430 Handheld

1. Press Dog
2. Select Add Dog
3. Select Yes
4. Follow the on-screen instructions

After pairing is complete, you can add the dog collar device to the Alpha 100 handheld using the dog collar device track code.
