DigiTrak F Series Display (FSD) Front and Back
General Description
The DigiTrak F Series Display (FSD) is a multifunction remote that can be used with a variety of DigiTrak
receivers. It provides the drill rig operator with information from the receiver about the depth, orientation,
and status of the transmitter. The FSD remote can be powered through either a DC cable source or an
F Series battery pack.
An external 13 in. (33 cm) telemetry antenna is supplied with your DigiTrak equipment. It mounts onto the
remote display to enhance signal reception up to 1800 ft (550 m) with line of sight to the receiver
To meet regional requirements and for proper communication, one of the telemetry frequency
designations shown on the remote’s serial number label on the back of the remote must match that
shown on the receiver. The receiver’s telemetry frequency designation is located on the serial number
label inside the receiver’s battery compartment (see Receiver section).
