Using Geofences and Geofence Alerts With the Alpha 200 and Alpha 200i

A geofence, or geo fence, is an invisible boundary you can set around an area to receive an alert when a dog or contact enters or exits that area. This alert can be helpful to manage if the dog comes close to an unauthorized property, or if heading toward a dangerous area such as a road.

IMPORTANT Geofence notifications will alert you, but no stimulation or warning tone will be given to the dog when it enters or exits the geofence area. If needed, training commands can be delivered manually via the normal Training Buttons on models from the Alpha® series of handhelds.

Setting Up a Geofence Alert

1. From the Main Menu, select Location Alerts.
2. Select Add Alert.
3. Select Geofence.
4. The interface will guide you through selecting several points on a map to create an area:
   1. Choose a point on the map, and select Use.
   2. Repeat the previous step to define a geofence with up to 10 points (3 minimum).
5. Select Done

NOTE: You must select at least 3 points and can select up to 10 points in total to complete the boundary.
