The LT2 receiver is a handheld unit used for locating and
tracking
an LT2 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 LT2 receiver also sends signals to the LT2
remote display at the drill rig.
The LT2 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.
The LT2 receiver is equipped with an internal speaker that
emits audible tones to accompany menu changes and
temperature warnings from the transmitter. Audible tones also
accompany the power-on sequence and the manual shutdown
sequence. The various warning tones are discussed further
where applicable in the following sections.
