Target Steering Menu
The target steering menu is accessed from the locate mode screen by pushing the toggle switch up
(toward the display). The following screen will display.
Target Steering Menu
If the depth value on the display matches your target depth value, pull the trigger to select the checkmark.
You will be returned to the locate mode screen with Target Steering activated.
If you wish to program a new target depth, toggle right to highlight the keypad and pull the trigger. See
“Using the Keypad” below for more information. Once a target depth is programmed with the keypad, you
will be returned to the locate mode screen with Target Steering activated.
See the Target Steering section for more information on correctly positioning the receiver as a target and
determining the target depth.
Using the Keypad
A keypad menu shows anytime the keypad icon is selected. It is used for setting a height-above-ground in
the HAG function, setting a target depth in the Target Steering function, and programming rod lengths in
the LWD function. A variation of the keypad is used to set the date and time; it is covered under “Settings
Menu” earlier in this section.
The keypad menu will appear slightly differently depending on which units are active in the receiver.
Inches and Decimal Keypad
The decimal keypad will appear when keypad menu is accessed and the receiver units are set to meters
(x.xx m) or feet (x.xx’). The inches keypad appears when the receiver units are set to inches (xx”). The
inches keypad is the same as the decimal keypad shown below except the decimal option will not show.
