Download Garmin Express onto your computer and follow its instructions to update watch & Handheld (very simple), then follow these instructions.
Using the Dog Tracking Widget on a fenix 3
--snip
Once the dog tracking handheld is set to Broadcast Mode and tracking a compatible dog tracking collar the wearable widget will show the dogs names, status, distance and direction from the handheld.
The widget will also alert the user when the Dog has treed or is on point just like the transmitting handheld does. In order for these alerts to show on the watch the user needs to be on the widget screen. The notifications will not occur on the watch if the user is on the watch screen or another widget screen.
A couple of questions about the watch that i do not find info on the Garmin website about.
1] What is the range between the watch and the Alpha 2] Can the Alpha update more than one watch simultaneously?
We are wondering if you and a hunting buddy can each sync watches to one Alpha? There are usually 3 - 4 of use, but we only have two alphas.
Is this bluetooth or something similar in range, or is the Watch to Alpha connection using channel hopping Murs, like the link to the collars? If its is Murs, that should give you a couple of hundred feet of range with the tiny antenna in the watch.
