Multi-GNSS Support

TopoActive Maps

BirdsEye Direct

Our preloaded TopoActive mapping provides detailed views of terrain contours, topographic elevations, summits, parks, coastlines, rivers, lakes and geographical points.

Navigation Sensors

See It All

Stay on the Move
A barometric altimeter helps you accurately monitor ascent and descent and see short-term trends in air pressure, and the built-in tilt-compensated 3-axis electronic compass keeps your bearing - whether you’re moving or not. The sunlight-readable 3.5” capacitive touchscreen display makes it easy to see and interact with your maps, dog data and more - even while wearing gloves. The replaceable battery lasts up to 20 hours, giving you plenty of hunt time with your dogs in the field.
     

Additional Mapping

In-Vehicle Tracking
The microSD card slot allows you to load more mapping options, such as TOPO U.S. 24K and HuntView maps (each sold separately). If you’re using a vehicle to follow and retrieve your dogs, the rugged Tread off-road powersport navigator or Garmin DriveTrack 71 car navigator (each sold separately) provide an easy-to-watch “big picture” solution. The moving map display shows dog positions overlaid on TOPO contours or satellite image views - along with navigation cues that help point you to your dog’s current location.
