To disable roll offset, select Disable Roll Offset from the Roll Offset menu. The receiver
beeps four times as the screen returns to the Locate screen. The roll value on the Locate
screen will now be that of the transmitter, not necessarily the drill head.

The Transmitter Options menu lets you select between optimized Up and Down
frequency bands. It also lets you select a DucTrak transmitter, view a frequency
analyzer that shows the current interference on the band, and view information about
a paired transmitter.

After facing the transmitter and receiver infrared ports toward each other at a distance of
5 cm or less, select this option to view transmitter serial number, region, bands, amperage,
voltage, temperature, maximum temperature, and software version. Viewing this data also
