: this switch is soft switch; The receiver is in the working state when

the power is turned on. The receiver is turned off when the power is disconnected

again.

3.2.3 Interface description

Receiver wide - peak arrow interface

Frequency: shows the current receiving frequency value; The startup is 577Hz.

Grating: the signal strength is expressed by grating length; The grating is moved
from both sides to the middle, and the grating is full of signals that are too strong
and too wide to be displayed.

Three Numbers: signal strength by digital size; The effective range is 00.0 - 99.9.
When 99.9 is displayed, the signal is too strong and the range is displayed.

Color compass: indicates the direction of the pipeline.

Depth & current: represents the depth of the underground pipeline and the current
on the line.

Gain: represents the amplification factor of the receiver's current processing
signal, dynamic range of 1000 - 140db; Default automatic adjustment. The startup
is 60db.

Mode: represents the way of receiving signal of the receiver, showing the
