3. Cables are designed to be as tough as practical.
4. Careless and/or improper use of cables, such as making them carry loads that they
are not designed for, can cause internal damage.
5. Connectors are weak points in any system. With the use of this product in rough,
dusty and outdoor environments, users can minimize potential downtime if they care
for cables and treat connectors with respect.
6. Cables and connectors are not designed to suspend or tow or otherwise carry the
weight of systems. They are part of the electronic circuit and should be treated
accordingly. When not in use they should be placed in their storage box.
12.3 Skid Pads
The bottom of the GPR Sensor is covered with a large, wear-resistant skid pad. The skid pad is
designed to take the majority of the abrasive wear. If the pad wears down enough, the less-
resistant plastic housing may start to wear. If this occurs, it is best to replace the skid pad. It is
easily removed with a screwdriver and a new one can be purchased from the vendor.
12.4 Odometer
The odometer should be periodically calibrated (refer to Section 6.4) to ensure accuracy.
12.5 Storage Cases
Equipment that is transported and stored loosely is more susceptible to damage. All equipment
should be stored in its shipping case or a storage box. Radiodetection has optional shipping
cases available for all RD1100 systems.
12.6 Upgrading Embedded Software on Display Unit
From time to time, Radiodetection may release new software for the Display Unit. The
instructions below describe how to update this software. Please note that this procedure will
erase all GPR data from the system, so export any valuable data before continuing.
