How to proceed Follow the steps below to determine the depth of a metallic conductor:
Step Action
1
If the depth of the conductor will be determined with the aid of the Easyloc
Tx
transmitter, couple the transmitter's signal onto the metallic conductor
in such a way that there is as little signal loss as possible (see section
4.1.2 Options for direct and inductive signal coupling ) and switch on the
transmitter (see section 4.1.3 Initial use of the transmitter ).
Do not forget to set the transmitter to continuous signal, not a pulsed
signal when measuring depth.
2
Press
to switch on the receiver.
3
Select the desired mode of operation (see section 4.2.2.1 Modes of
operation for the receiver ) by pressing the button.
The symbol for the currently selected mode of operation is shown in the
lower right-hand corner of the display.
4 With a steady grip, hold the receiver perpendicular to the position of a
known metallic conductor, e.g. above a location which was marked during
the site survey. The signal strength bargraph should show zero
(see section 4.2.3 General site surveying ).
In doing so, the tip of the receiver should touch the ground.
5
Rotate the receiver (through its own axis) over this location until the
maximum signal strength is indicated (see section 4.2.2.3 Handling the
receiver ).
6
Press the button to begin measuring the depth.
For automatic depth measurement
(while working in TRANSMITTER or
PROBE mode) …
For making a rough estimate of
the depth (while working in RADIO
or POWER GRID mode) …
... the measured depth will be
shown in the display:
The following steps can be skipped.
... the following symbol will appear
in the display:
The measurement has to be
continued from step 7 .
7
Move slowly to one side until the following symbol appears in the display
and an acoustic signal sounds:
