Receiver view 

Actual position of receiver 

to transmitter 

In this scenario the 
transmitter is 
behind you and you 
are walking toward 
the FLP.  

 

Notice how the arrow that indicates 
the nearest locate point is slightly 
to the right and has a narrow base.

 

Its position lets you know the FLP’s right-left information 
relative to the receiver. The width of the base lets you know 
how close or far the FLP is from you. A skinnier base 
means you are further away, and completely filled in base 
means you’re about to cross the FLP.  

Walk forward until the base of the arrow is fully filled in.  

 

 

Receiver view 

Actual position of 

receiver to transmitter 

Notice how the Locate 
Line was replaced with a 
ball. The ball represents 
the FLP and appears when 
you are near it. It will slide 
along the horizontal axis of 
the cross hairs to give you 
the FLP’s right-left 
location. 

 

Where the cross hairs meet represents  
the receiver, the ball represents the  
FLP’s position relative to the receiver,  
and the arrow represents the direction and nearness of the 
FLP, you can now see that you are about to cross over the 
FLP and that it is to your right.
