800-H Pipe and Cable Locator Manual

THE EQUIPMENT
Transmitter
Modes: Inductive - HF
Conductive - HF
Signal Clamp - HF
During Inductive Mode the High-Frequency is being induced.
To put the most signal on a conductor, place the handle of the
transmitter in-line and directly over the conductor.
During the Conductive or Signal Clamp Mode the high-
frequency is no longer inducing and all signal is focused on the
target conductor. For maximum benefit, place the ground rod as
far away as possible at 90° from the conductor.
The 800-H Transmitter produces an audible tone when the unit is
ON. When the tone is a high pitch, then a good signal is being
put out. If during Conductive mode, a low pitch is heard then
there is poor signal being placed on the conductor. This could
be due to a bad ground or poor connection to the pipe, etc. If the
Transmitter starts beeping then the batteries are getting low.
Receiver
The receiver can be used during all
modes described above. Signal
response feedback is given by an
audio speaker and a meter.
