6.

 

There are massive metal objects near the receiver antenna. 

7.

 

There is a source of electromagnetic interference (for instance, the vehicle with running 
motor) near the measurement point. 

8.

 

The signal incoming to the receiver sensors is too strong and thereby distorted. 

 
Some of such situations are recognized by the receiver. For example, figure 2.13: when there is a 
minimum signal instead of switching to the mode of minimum the error message «Err 4» appears 

on the screen. Here “4” is an error code.

 

 

Code 

Meaning 

Err 1 

Signal is too weak 

Err 2 

Signal is too high 

Err 3 

Field is heavily distorted 

Err 4 

Not on the route axis 

 
Unfortunately,  the  receiver  cannot  always  detect  the  distorting  factors.  If  there  are  doubts 
regarding the correctness of depth defining, the following techniques can be used to detect some 
of the distorting factors: 
- Conduct 5-10 measurements of depth in a row without moving the receiver. The readings must 
not differ at more than 20%. 
- The position of route axis obtained by the method of minimum and the method of maximum 
must not differ at more than 20 cm. 
- Lift the receiver at 20 cm above the ground and repeat the measurement 

 the reading must 

have a 20 cm increase as well. 
The depth can be also defined by one of the indirect techniques (the receiver shall be in the mode 
of maximum, «SuperMax» shall be off). 
If the conditions allow depth measurement but do not allow defining the current, the latter is 
not output. 
 

2.10  Work procedure for passive route detection 

 
This  mode  of  search  is  intended  to  locate  and  trace  the 
underground engineering buried utilities and does not require 

use of the generator. The modes “50/60 Hz”, “100/120 Hz” a

re 

to be used. 
 
Turn on the receiver by depressing the receiver power button 
pos.5. figure 2.14. The receiver conducts the short test of the 
indicator and displays the current supply voltage in volts and 
current operation frequency in kHz (F=8.92).
