Recording, Saving, and Clearing Dog Tracks on the Alpha 200 Series

Starting a new hunt allows the option to clear all the previous dog tracks from the map screen and mark the Truck's location. New Hunt also prompts an option to individually Activate/Deactivate dogs, Contacts, or groups of Tracked Devices. During the Hunt, this tool gives a listed overview of accumulated time and distance for each tracked device and the handheld. This information is referred to as "Active Hunt Metrics."

1. From the Main Menu, tap New Hunt.
2. On "Clear device tracked statistics?", tap Yes.
3. "Mark the current location as Truck?" tap Yes to track the truck's location, tap No not to.

All Tracked devices (dog collar and other tracked handhelds) lines are reset.

This control can help with reducing track line clutter that can happen on the map. This does not reset any track information, but only effects how long the lines are displayed (or hidden).
