Appendix C Locator receiver R10K
The highly sensitive hand-held
receiver R10K
detects the fields caused by the currents in
the traced line. It generates sound and visual output according to the signal intensity. The
operating mode switch in the head detector should always be set in IND (inductive) mode.
The CAP (capacitive) operating mode is intended for operating in combination with other
Metrel measuring equipment.
The built in field detector is placed in the front end of the receiver. External detectors can be
connected via the rear connector.
Traced object must be energized when working with the EurotestXD.

Figure C.1: Receiver R10K
The user can choose between three sensitivity levels (low, middle and high). An extra
potentiometer is added for fine sensitivity adjustment. A buzzer sound and 10-level LED bar
graph indicator indicates the strength of the magnetic field e.g. proximity of the traced object.
Note
:
The field strength can vary during tracing. The sensitivity should always be adjusted
to optimum for each individual tracing.
