4.5.1 Pinpointing
Always probe perpendicular to the surface. Use your
lower hand as a “probe guide” to ensure the probe
follows a steady path. Follow a proven system until
you have a hit. Communicate a hit clearly to
companions. Leave the probe stuck for shovelling
guidance.
The PIEPS iPROBE BT supports perfectly through an
optical and acoustic hit indication within 50cm to the
burial.
IMPORTANT Leave probe in place during the whole
digging work! The probe serves as an indispensable
orientational guide.
4.5.2 Combination of fine search and pinpointing
This is a special probing system for the PIEPS iPROBE BT.
Last correction of the direction: Do an accurate
direction adjustment before the direction arrow
disappears (1).
Fine search: Mark the point of the lowest distance
reading already at the first movement forward.
Start probing with the PIEPS iPROBE BT with 30 cm-
distances till you hear a continuous signal -> central
(I), 2x right (II,III) and 2x left (IV, V).
