Receiver Main Menu Options
Height-Above-Ground (HAG) Menu – Turns on, turns off, or sets the height at
which the receiver will be held during depth readings. See the “Height-Above-
Ground (HAG) Menu” below.
Power Off – Turns the unit off accompanied by four long tones.
Telemetry Channel Menu – Changes the telemetry setting (channels 1 through 4)
or turns off the telemetry (channel 0). The receiver must be set to the same
channel as the remote. See the “Telemetry Channel Menu” below.
Calibration Menu – Calibrates the receiver to the transmitter using the above-
ground (1-point) method or the below-ground (2-point) method. See the
“Calibration Menu” below.
Units & Roll Offset Menu – Changes the depth and pitch units and activates the
roll offset function, which is used when the transmitter's roll position must be
compensated to match the drill head’s roll position. See the “Units & Roll Offset
Menu” below.
Target Steering Menu – Sets the target depth, turns on the Target Steering
function, or returns the display to standard locate mode. See the “Target Steering
Menu” below.
Height-Above-Ground (HAG) Menu
The HAG menu has three options: Turn On, Turn Off, and Set. Set allows you to change the current
height setting. Clicking the trigger advances through each option, and holding the trigger in selects the
option displayed.
The default setting for the HAG function is off. Until you turn on or set a new HAG, the receiver must be
placed on the ground for accurate depth readings. The HAG function automatically shuts off when depth
units are changed, when Target Steering is used, and during calibration.
Before accessing the HAG menu to turn on or set the HAG, you should measure your desired HAG. To
do so, hold the receiver comfortably at your side and measure the distance from the bottom of the
receiver to the ground. The available values range from 1–3 ft, 12–36 in., or 30–90 cm. The menu will
time out if selections are not made within 5 seconds.
