Using the Locator:
Automatic Daily Self Test
The CXL2, DXL2 AND MXL2 Locators have an in-built automatic Daily Self Test function.
This tests the Locator’s circuits and receiving aerials for correct performance.
The Self Test is automatically performed the first time the Locator is switched on each day
and takes approximately four seconds. The Locator will then be ready for use.
The Self Test process is indicated by ‘
