What are Halo Beacons?
Halo Beacons are Bluetooth-enabled devices that communicate with your dog’s Halo Collar to convey the presence of a boundary. Halo currently offers three models of Beacons: Indoor Beacons, Outdoor Beacons, and USB Beacons.
★ Indoor Beacons are optimized for training and setting Keep Away zones indoors. They can be used anywhere that is not exposed to weather conditions.
★ Outdoor Beacons can be used anywhere.
★ USB Beacons can be used anywhere that they can be plugged into an outlet.
All of these Beacons have two functions that you can choose from: Keep Away and Ignore Fences.
The Keep Away function is used to keep your dog from entering unwanted or unsafe areas. Keep Away Beacons trigger alerts that act like any other boundary when your dog comes near them.
The Ignore Fences function is used to create a portable ‘Safe’ zone where your pup won’t receive Fence feedback while it is in range — regardless of whether its pet pin is inside or outside of a Halo Fence.
Each Beacon’s settings can be customized, including the function of the Beacon, the Beacon’s name, and the size of the radius. Keep in mind that the Beacon radius is spherical, not flat, which means that if you set your Beacon’s radius to a high setting, it is possible for your dog to trigger Beacon Feedback when they are on another floor in your house.
My Beacons :
The ‘My Beacons’ feature allows you to add a Beacon to your account, name it, and set a custom radius which applies to that Beacon only.
Previously, your pup’s Halo would respond to all Halo Beacons it would encounter.
* For existing users: If your pup’s Halo is currently configured to respond to all Halo Beacons, it will continue to do so until you add a Beacon to your account in the Halo App. Once you add a Beacon to your account, your Halo will only respond to Beacons that are registered to your account.
* For new users: Your pup’s Halo will only respond to Beacons that are registered to your account in the Halo App. If you have not added any Beacons to your account, you won’t be able to turn Beacons on for your pet. Some idea visit here halo collar beacon.
