Troubleshooting

When reporting any problem to your Radiodetection Dealer or Supplier it 

is important to quote the unit serial number and the purchase date.

WARNING!

 

This equipment is NOT approved for use in areas where 

hazardous gases may be present. 

Reduce audio level before using the earpiece.

Batteries should be disposed of in accordance with your 
company’s work practice, and/or any relevant laws or guidelines  
in your country.

This instrument, or family of instruments, will not be permanently 

damaged by reasonable electrostatic discharge and has been tested 

in accordance with IEC 801-2. However, in extreme cases temporary 

malfunction may occur. If this happens, switch off, wait and switch on 

again. If the instrument still malfunctions, disconnect the batteries for a 

few seconds.

Radiodetection hereby declares that this T1 Transmitter is compliant 

with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 

1999/5/EC.

WARNING!

 The SuperC.A.T will detect almost all buried conductors 

but there are some objects which do not radiate any signal which 
the SuperC.A.T or any other electromagnetic instrument is unable 
to detect. There are also some live cables which the SuperC.A.T 
will not be able to detect in Power mode. The SuperC.A.T does not 
indicate whether a signal is from a single cable or from several in 
close proximity.

Service and Maintenance

The SuperC.A.T and the T1 are designed so that they do not require 

regular calibration. However, as with all safety equipment, it is 

recommended that they are serviced at least once a year either at 

Radiodetection or an approved repair center.

Radiodetection products, including this user guide, are under 

continuous development and are subject to change without notice.
