Calibration is necessary prior to first-time use and before a different transmitter, receiver, or drill head is to
be used. See “Calibrate Receiver to Transmitter” in the System Setup section for complete calibration
instructions.
Height-Above-Ground (HAG) Menu
The height-above-ground (HAG) function allows you to program a height measurement into the receiver
so that you do not have to set the receiver on the ground for a depth reading.
The HAG menu has three options: enable, disable, and set. The set option allows you to change and
enable the HAG setting. See “Set Height-Above-Ground (HAG) Distance” in the System Setup section for
complete instructions.
HAG Menu Screen
The HAG function by default is off (disabled). Until you enable the HAG function, the receiver must be
placed on the ground for accurate depth readings. The HAG function automatically shuts off during
calibration and must be reenabled.
Settings Menu
The settings menu is used to set the following options on the receiver: depth units, pitch units, time and
calendar, telemetry channel, and roll offset, as shown below.
