Calibrating TensiTrak Unit to Receiver
It is only necessary to calibrate the receiver to the TensiTrak unit if you will be tracking its depth during
installation. Calibration should be completed in an interference-free environment. The calibration area
should be free of passive and active interference sources.
If you are only tracking the position (not depth) of the TensiTrak unit, then it is not necessary to calibrate.
Calibration and Verification Procedure
1. Using a tape measure, position the TensiTrak unit at a distance of 10 ft (3 m) from the receiver, as
shown in the figure below; measure from the centerline of the TensiTrak unit to the bottom inside
edge of the receiver (below the display window at the ground, not at the upper edge of the display,
which is wider). Be sure to position the TensiTrak unit with the pulling eyes “open to the sky” (facing
up and down) rather than with the pulling eyes on edge.
