6. A successful calibration yields a checkmark above the transmitter icon and four beeps.
An unsuccessful calibration yields an X above the transmitter icon and two beeps.
The symbol indicates low signal strength, and indicates high (excessive) signal
strength. Calibration will fail when the signal from the transmitter is below 300 or above
950 points.
Why do I keep getting calibration errors?
Carefully review the items under "Do not calibrate if" at the beginning of this section. Try calibrating
in a different location. Make sure the transmitter is on and paired (data showing on the Locate
screen). If you're still having trouble, give us a call, we'll get you going.
Above Ground Range (AGR)
After successfully completing a 1-point calibration, the receiver displays the Above Ground
Range screen, an active measurement between the transmitter and receiver. Use this screen
along with a tape measure to verify calibration of the transmitter at different distances. With
the transmitter level, the depth readings should be within ±5% of the measured distance.
Note To perform an AGR check without re-calibrating the transmitter, follow the
1-point calibration instructions in the previous section up to step 3, but do
not click the trigger to perform the calibration . The procedure will
time out to the AGR screen after several seconds.
Above Ground Range (AGR)
Note that because AGR intentionally does not consider pitch when calculating
range, it displays a symbol indicating "Warning, pitch is unknown, assume
zero". It also ignores any HAG setting.
