RD7100 QUICK START GUIDE
Active Locating – Receiver Operation
•
Turn on receiver by pushing button.
•
Set frequency to 33khz Line Mode, using button.
•
Set antenna to peak mode using button.
Receiver indicates position of underground conductor by showing
highest bar graph and signal strength percentage with the compass
in straight up and down position as shown.
SCAN
for strongest signal.
• Circle around transmitter to detect strongest signal.
• Adjust gain using buttons.
For best response bar graph should reach maximum signal
at approximately 60%.
PINPOINT
exact location of conductor.
•
Bar graph will rise and fall as blade is
moved across conductor.
•
Memory bar on graph shows strongest signal response.
•
Once strongest signal is located . . .
Rotate receiver as shown. Bar graph will reach maximum
signal when receiver is properly aligned over conductor and
the compass is in the straight up and down position.
Depth is displayed on screen automatically when receiver is properly
aligned over conductor.
TRACE
the path of conductor.
•
Bar graph will rise and fall as blade is moved across
conductor.
• The compass shows the direction of the target conductor
relative to the receiver. Keeping the compass straight up and
down insures the receiver is aligned properly over the
conductor.
•
Adjust gain using up & down arrows to have bar graph reach
maximum signal at approx. 60%.
Repeat
