Fixing Halo Collar GPS Issues
- **Check Environmental Conditions:** Move to an open space if possible. Signal reception can be poor in areas with tall structures or dense foliage.
- **Update Firmware and App:** Ensure that both your Halo Collar and the associated app are updated to the latest versions. Check for updates in the app store and the device settings.
- **Inspect Physical Condition:** Ensure that the collar is worn correctly on your pet, and check for any physical damage that might obstruct the signal. Make sure the antenna is not covered.
- **Adjust Collar Position:** Ensure the collar is fitted correctly, with the GPS antenna facing upwards for optimal signal reception.
- **Check Battery Level:** Make sure the collar is fully charged before use. A low battery can affect GPS performance.
- **Reset the Device:** If problems persist, perform a soft reset on the collar by following the reset instructions from the manufacturer. Usually, this involves pressing a specific combination of buttons on the device.
