Pipe and Cable Locating
1.. Press.the.on/off.key.
2.. Press.the.line.key.to.match.the.frequency.that.the.transmitter.is.sendi ng.
3.. .Sweep.the.receiver.across.the.area.in.a.left.right.motion,.while.watching.the.
bar.graph,.directional.arrows,.and.signal.strength.
4.. .When.a.magnetic.field.is.detected,.the.bar.graph.will.close,.the.signal.
strength.and.the.audio.will.increase.
5.. .Adjust.the.gain.so.that.the.bar.graph.opens.when.the.receiver.is.not.on.target.
and.closes.when.directly.over.it.by.pressing.the.+.or.–..gain.key.
6.. .Pinpoint.the.target.by.moving.the.receiver.left.and.right.over.the.magnetic.
field.until.both.arrows.appear.
7.. .Place.the.tip.of.the.receiver.on.the.ground.over.the.target.path.and.measure.
depth.of.the.conductor.by.pressing.the.Depth.key.
8.. .Verify.the.depth.of.the.target.is.as.expected,.and.the.current.is.comparable.
with.the.current.displayed.on.the.transmitter.
Depth and Current
To.measure.the.depth.of.a.target,.place.
the.tip.of.the.receiver.on.the.ground..
Press.the.Depth.key.
The.depth.to.the.target.conductor.and.
the.current.will.display.for.five.seconds.
Refer.to.receiver.set.up.section.to.select.
“snapshot”.of.“live”.depth.modes.
Note: To further verify target, this cur rent reading can be compared to the
current reading on the transmit ter.
