C. Special Peak (Spl Pk)
Special Peak Mode turns on only the peak antenna closest to the ground. Special Peak
Mode is used in applications such as very deep cables or pipes, or when the signal is too
weak for directional peak tracing.
Left or Right of Target Path
Directly Over Target Path
D. Induction Peak (Ind Pk)
If you cannot make a direct connection, or use the 3M™
Dyna-Coupler clamp to apply
a locating signal on the target, use the induction method. This method uses the internal
coil of the transmitter to generate a magnetic field.
The Induction Peak mode of the receiver is a mode in which the upper antenna of the
receiver is tuned to minimize distortion from the magnetic field of the transmitter.

E. Expanded Mode
When the third ring of the speaker icon is dotted
or broken and ‘xpnd’ appears below the speaker
icon, the receiver is in “Expanded” mode. This
mode is used for pinpointing a target cable
or pipe. The area of response of the receiver
narrows, allowing the locator to detect very
small signal changes. Press the
Speaker Volume
Control
[2] key to activate the "Expanded" mode.
8. Depth and Current Estimate
Verifying the target path, depth and current can be helpful tools.
1. Pinpoint the cable or pipe being located.
