How RoamEO Works
The RoamEO Location System is designed for pet owners to quickly and accurately locate their pets by using state-of-the-art
GPS technology. RoamEO displays the concise, easy to read information on a LCD screen that allows you to locate your
pet and shows you his current movements.
GPS Basics
The Global Positioning System (GPS) was launched in 1995 by the United States Defense Department. Twenty-four
satellites orbit at 10,900 nauticl miles above the Earth, passing overhead twice daily. At least four of these satellites are in view
nearly anywhere on the Earth at all times.
GPS requires signal reception from three satellites in order to determine a latitude and longitude position, known as a 2D fix. Four
satellites are needed to determine position and elevation (a 3D fix).
Display Receivers
Each RoamEO system consists of a portable, handheld receiver that displays information received from the
GPS-enabled collar on your dog. The handheld device uses a LCD to show the location and direction of your pet.
RoamEO is designed to update readings every few seconds, giving you a continuous stream of real-time information.
RoamEO PuP
The RoamEO Pup receiver provides direction and distance to your dog, and can track up to two dogs at one
time. It also will provide an Indoor Mode setting, where you can track your dog outside, while remaining indoors.
RoamEO Classic
RoamEO has been designed so that you can setup up a GPS Fence. RoamEO uses GPS coordinates that you
establish by walking the perimeter of your desired fence, and commits them to memory. If your pet exits the perimeter, an audible
alarm will sound.
For example, you may wish to establish your property line as the perimeter for your pet. After setting up your
fence, this information would be stored in your system and if your dog wanders off your property, the alarm will sound. Because this
boundary is electronic, you can erase and create new ones as often as you like, giving you the flexibility for any situation or
condition.
RoamEO uses rechargable batteries in both the handheld unit and the collar. The AC adapters are provided.

RoamEO PeTnet (coming soon)
RoamEO PeTnet receives GPS location data from a RoamEO collar, which then displays your pet's location
on a Google Map. Using the Internet and Google Maps allows you to set up a Virtual Fence online, and receive Alerts via E-mail
and/or SMS text messages via cell phone if your dog should run out of the Virtual Fence.
You may check on your pet's location anytime by just logging onto your user account. First year's membership
is included with your purchase of PeTnet. Membership for following years are $69 per year.
