Overview:
To help you achieve optimum performance from your sporting
dogs, Alpha combines proven Garmin GPS dog tracking technology with
Tri-Tronics® electronic dog training.
This easy-to-use integrated handheld system allows you to track and
train your dogs in the field from a range of up to 9 mi, delivering
their exact position as often as every 2.5 seconds.
With Alpha 100 and TT™ 10,
you can pinpoint up to 20 dogs or hunters’ exact positions on a large,
glove-friendly touchscreen display even when they are out of sight.
Since Alpha 100 comes preloaded with 100K U.S. TOPO maps you’ll always
know your surroundings. Click to view a Demo.
Track Your Dogs
Using the Alpha 100, you can measure each dog’s speed, distance and
the direction being traveled. Plus, you can receive notifications when a
dog is “Treed” or “On Point.” A single Alpha 100 can track up to 20
dogs or fellow hunters when using either additional Alpha 100 handhelds
or TT 10 devices (each sold separately, not compatible with Astro®).
Upgrade your view with a BirdsEye TOPO maps subscription for a
better-than-real-life view of terrain, including roads, water, woods
and more.
Train and Control Your Dogs
Alpha 100 helps you train and control them to stop chasing unwanted
game or “recall” to your position. Easy to access training buttons allow
you to communicate separately to each dog through safe and effective
features, including 18 levels of momentary and 18 levels of continuous
stimulation or an audible tone command. Plus, a lockout setting is
available to avoid accidental stimulation or tone.
Two modes of level progression let you customize your training even
further. Traditional stimulation allows you to make quick changes within
a predetermined stimulation level (low, medium or high). Whereas linear
stimulation allows progressively more stimulation through all 18 levels
available.
Extend Your Battery
When using the TT 10, hunters can switch to Rescue Mode to prolong
the battery life. When the TT 10 reaches a certain battery level, it
will slow down the update rate at which it pings the Alpha 100 from
every 2.5 seconds to every 2 minutes. This mode should provide
additional battery life to the TT 10, giving you more time to search for
and locate your dog.
Features:
Track and Train 20 Dogs.
From the compass screen, get in-depth speed, direction traveling and
distance away information for any dogs you've selected. And correct any
dog on this screen without falsely correcting the others.
At-A-Glance Dog Stats.
Get the information you always need, like your dog’s state (moving or
on-point/treed), distance from the Alpha device, total distance
traveled, speed and update rate, all on 1 screen.
Keep ‘em Away From Hazard.
Don’t wait till your dog is lost or in danger to get him back. Setup
virtual boundaries on your map and receive an alert if he strays out of
your geofence so you can recall him right away.
Track and Train Your Dogs.
Track and train your dogs based on where they are with BirdsEye Satellite Imagery.
These highly-detailed raster maps provide a realistic bird’s eye view
of roads, parking areas, buildings, and terrain, including tree lines,
lakes, rivers and streams. They are a great way to supplement the
comprehensive topographic maps on your Alpha.
Keep Your Dogs On Track.
From the training screen, correct and recall multiple dogs (with extra
TT 10 devices) with the help of Tri-Tronics electronic training. Select
traditional or linear progression plus tone or stimulation types.
Keep Up With Your Buddies.
Know where other hunters in your group are. Set your Alpha to show not
only the dogs in your group, but also the other Alpha handhelds too (Up
to 20 TT 10 or Alpha units. Not compatible with Astro).
