Locate an outdoor test area that is free from overhead and underground cables and metal pipes.
The area should also not be near fences, steel framed buildings, or on reinforced concrete.
Place the Signal Generator/ Transmitter on the ground and switch on - a tone should be heard.
Set to Continuous and ensure lowest Output Power is selected.
For the MXT4 Transmitter, set to CF frequency.
With the Locator in the orientation shown, select Generator/ Transmitter Mode.
For the MXL4 Locator, set to CF frequency.
Rotate sensitivity fully clockwise. The results in the table below should be indicated.
Reducing the sensitivity should cause the displayed reading to reduce and the tone to cut out.
For the MXL4 Locator only, repeat with both Transmitter and Locator set to 8kHz. The results should be the same.
