Make .sure .the .
T
ransmiTTer
.is .connected .and .in .the .ON .position . .Then .move .approximately .15 .
feet .(4 .5 .meters) .away .from .the .
T
ransmiTTer
along .the .path . .(Move .about .25 .feet .(7 .5 .meters) .
for .the .Inductive .search .mode .)
Hold .the .
r
eceiver
.so .that .you .can .see .the .LCD .bargraph .and .controls .easily . .Make .sure .the .
r
eceiver
.and .the .
T
ransmiTTer
.FREQUENCY .are .both .set .for .the .same .FREQUENCY, .either .815 .Hz .
(lower), .8 .kHz, .33kHz .or .82 .kHz .(higher) . .Or .select .the .passive .locating .mode .which .do .not .
require .the .transmitter
Selecting the Locating Mode (Peak or Null)
Press .the .MODE .button .to .select .the .desired .Peak .or .Null .locating .method . .
Peak Mode Locating
Keep .the .
r
eceiver
.in .a .vertical .position . .Move .the .
r
eceiver
left .to .right .across .the .path . .When .
the .
r
eceiver
.is .directly .above .the .cable .or .pipe, .rotate .the .
r
eceiver
.for .a .maximum .signal . .As .
you .move .the .
r
eceiver
.away .from .the .cable .path, .the .meter .reading .(and .audio .frequency .
response) .will .drop .off . .
If .you .rotate .the .
r
eceiver
.while .over .the .cable, .a .sharp .NULL .will .identify .the .cable’s .direction . .
It .is .aligned .with .the .flat .side .of .the .
