Turning Off the Receiver
To turn off the unit, click the trigger twice to highlight the power icon in the main menu. Then hold the
trigger in for at least 1 full second. You will hear four long tones as the unit turns off.
Automatic Shutdown
The F2 receiver will shut down if no trigger action and no transmitter signal are detected for 15 minutes
when the receiver is in locate mode.
Trigger Switch
The F2 receiver operates with a trigger switch located under the handle. The trigger is used to turn on the
unit, adjust the screen contrast, access and select menu options, and change the screen view for depth
measurements. Clicking the trigger versus holding the trigger will result in different actions.
Click Quickly pulling and releasing the trigger (in less than 1 second). Clicking the trigger brings up the
main menu screen, and then each subsequent click advances through the menu options.
Hold Holding the trigger in for more than 1 second. Holding the trigger executes menu options, adjusts
the screen contrast, selects a menu option, or changes the display view for depth readings.
If the receiver does not sense any trigger action within a few seconds of entering a menu, then the display
returns to the locate mode screen.

“Transmitter Temperature Warning Tones” in the Transmitter section).
