Vermeer DigiTrak LT Receiver (side view)
The LT receiver is a hand-held unit used for locating and
tracking an LT transmitter emitting a signal at 12 kHz.
The receiver converts signals from the transmitter and
displays the following information: depth, pitch, roll, and
temperature of the transmitter, and battery status of both
the transmitter and the receiver. The LT receiver also
sends signals to the LT remote display at the drill rig.
The LT system can be used to take depth readings
without setting the receiver on the ground. The height-
above-ground function allows you to program a
comfortable height for holding the receiver for depth
readings (see discussion under “Receiver Display
Menus” later in this section). Using the height-above-
ground feature also allows greater separation, which can
decrease the effects of interference.
