Remote Display
NOTE: The receiver must be in locate mode to send signals to the remote display.
The depth or predicted depth of the transmitter can also be viewed on the remote display. The receiver
must be positioned over either the locate line (LL) or one of the locate points (FLP or RLP) for this
function to work—see “Locate Points (FLP & RLP) and Locate Line (LL)” in the Locating section. Also,
this function is only available on Eclipse systems produced after February 2002.
NOTE: The capability to view the depth and predicted depth screens on the remote display is a
function that was added in February 2002. Older systems did not have this function. If you
have an older system and would like to upgrade, contact DCI.
Once the receiver is positioned over the LL, FLP, or RLP, the receiver operator holds in the trigger to take
the depth or predicted depth reading. The remote display will emit a single tone to notify the operator that
the depth information is being displayed. This depth/predicted depth information will remain on the remote
display’s screen for 10 seconds or as long as the receiver’s trigger is held in.
To view a depth reading on the remote display, the receiver must be above the transmitter or the LL while
the trigger is held in.

(when receiver is above LL)
To view the predicted depth on the remote display, the receiver must be above the FLP or RLP while the
trigger is held in. The predicted depth will only be valid if the receiver is over the FLP; data will appear if
the receiver is over the RLP, but the data will be invalid.
