Standard Method for Locating the Transmitter
With the LT2 system, you can locate the transmitter and its heading while it moves, whether standing in
front of it, behind it, or toward the side. You can also locate the transmitter facing either toward or away
from the drill rig.
The standard method described in this section guides you to the transmitter while standing out in front of
it, facing the drill rig. This is the recommended method for locating. As you continue to drill or as the bore
path curves, you may be facing the last marked locate point rather than the drill rig.
