Product Manual
The Receiver must be operated
facing in the direction of the
pipeline or cable.
Turned 90 degrees from the
pipeline or cable, there is
no response at all.
When the receiver is turned
ON, the Sensitivity is automatically
adjusted depending upon the signal
detected from the transmitter.
Select the same frequency as selected
at the transmitter for “active” locating,
or select “Radio” or “50/60 Hz” for
“passive” locating (no transmitter).
Select the Operating Mode
depending whether you wish
to locate a line with highest
accuracy or longest distance,
or you are locating a Sonde
inside a pipe.
Peak mode has the highest
accuracy locates, and DIST allows
even longer distance locates.
Null allows fast tracking.
The receiver only locates the line in
Peak Mode and BAR Mode when
the bar graph is climbing on the
sloped sections.
The depth of the line or a sonde
can be measured in the Peak
Mode or the Sonde Mode only + CDM
The receiver turns OFF automatically
when no key has been touched for
5 minutes. Volume can be adjusted by
pushing the Key, it cycles through
low, medium and high volume.
Hold the same key to turn
the vibration ON and OFF.
