Generator/ Transmitter: Induction

This is the standard method for inducing signals onto

buried metallic services. It produces a strong signal

directly below the Generator/ Transmitter but the

signal strength drops off quite quickly either side

of the Generator/ Transmitter.

1. Check that there are no accessories plugged into

the Connection Socket. The Generator/ Transmitter

switches automatically to Induction Mode when the

socket is unused.

2. Place the Generator/ Transmitter UPRIGHT on the

ground where you suspect services may be buried and

IN LINE with the expected route of these services.

3. Turn the Generator/ Transmitter on (and with the MXT2

Transmitter select either CF or 8kHz) then check that the

batteries are OK.

4. The signal will be radiated into the ground immediately

below and for approximately 3 metres either side of the

Generator/ Transmitter.

NOTE The closer the Generator/ Transmitter is to the position of the buried service then the

stronger the signal will be on that service.

NOTE MXT2 Transmitter only: Normally the CF signal is more effective on Induction Mode,

particularly on short length or small diameter services.

NOTE MXT2 Transmitter only: It is not possible to apply a 640/512Hz signal by Induction Mode.
