* the TUNING segment bar has two functions:

– in the SEARCH mode, it shows the selected sensitivity of the receiver (SEN)

– in the AUDIO mode, it shows the selected frequency combination (CH 1..5)
The boresight directions of the receiving and transmitting antennas are shown in Fig. 5.

1.6.2. Main Unit

The main unit of ST 40

2

 Cayman is housed in a durable plastic body (2, Fig. 2) fitted on top 

with a handle (5, Fig. 2) with three control buttons (15, Fig. 2). It has a battery compartment (3, 

Fig. 2) for two type 18650 accumulator batteries, closed with a metal cap (4, Fig. 2). On the left 

side of the main unit are a headphone socket (11, Fig. 2) and a power-and-volume knob (12, 

Fig.2), and on the right side there is a shield bearing the name of the device, its serial number, 

and the name of its manufacturer company (13, Fig. 2). Also on the right, a speaker grid can be 

found (14, Fig. 2).

The main unit’s body hosts electronics controlling the device. For durability’s sake, all the 

components of the main unit are assembled on a single bearing structure made of metal, while the 

plastic body only serves protective and aesthetic purposes. 

1.6.3. Telescopic Arm

The four-section telescopic arm is used to bring the antenna up close to remote objects under 

inspection. Its length can be adjusted with the aid of cam clamps (9, Fig. 2).

Its base section is anchored inside the main unit. The fore section of the rod is fitted with 

a bracket mount for the antenna module (6, Fig. 2). A lever handle (7, Fig. 2) is used to fix the 

antenna in a desired position.
