Pair the Receiver with the Transmitter (Tx)
4.
Install transmitter batteries and endcap; the increase in FO noise
readings show the Tx is on.
5.
Select
Pair
(flashing).
6.
Position the transmitter's infrared (IR) port within two inches of the
receiver's IR port.
1. IR port
7.
Select the check mark
to complete pairing.
Check for Background Noise
8.
Exit to the Locate screen. Have a coworker hold the transmitter beside
you at the approximate distance of the maximum intended depth of
the bore. Walk the bore together in parallel, with the receiver over the
bore. Wherever the data or signal strength becomes unstable or
disappears, consider re-optimizing in that area (see step 1).
Calibrate
Calibration in an interference-free environment
is required after each optimization.
9.
Place the Tx in a housing on level ground
10 feet from receiver as shown.
10.
From the Main menu, select
Calibration
,
1PT CAL
, and click to calibrate.
This error symbol will display in the roll indicator (Locate screen) if the
frequency band is not calibrated.
Check Above Ground Range (AGR)
11.
Always check AGR with a tape measure to
verify depth readings for Band 11 at various
distances up to the maximum expected bore
depth. Distance readings should be within
±5%.
