3 vLoc3-DM Receiver Functions and Operations

Frequency

128Hz
480Hz

491Hz

512Hz
577Hz
815Hz
982Hz
1.02kHz

3.  Navigate to the main menu and scroll until you see DFT. Select DFT by pressing the enter key.
4.  Once the option is selected the receiver will automatically assess the user’s preselected frequencies.
5.  The receiver will scan all available frequencies and display a progress bar, and the list of frequencies assessed will be

displayed. The frequency under test is shown on the top line.

DM

Frequency: 8.19kHz

491Hz
512Hz

80 dB
74 dB

6. A numerical value ranging from 0dB to 140dB will be presented next to the frequency list with 140dB being the least possible

interference detected and 0db with the largest amount of possible interference.

7. The results are ranked from the least interference possible at the top to the largest amount of most possible interference at

the bottom.

8. In this case, 491Hz with 80dB is the frequency with the least interference detected by the receiver.

DM

Frequency: 491Hz

491Hz
512Hz

8.19kHz
32.8kHz
65.5kHz

131kHz
200kHz

80 dB
74 dB
62 dB
56 dB
49 dB
43 dB
37 dB

* Sometimes even if the frequency results appear to have less interference, it still does not make it

the best choice to locate certain utilities. The type of conductor, current output, resistance, and signal

bleed over may still affect the locate.
