Settings Menu
Use the Settings menu to set the time zone, language,
depth units, pitch units, telemetry channel, and other units
as needed to the desired settings. Set the remote display to
match receiver settings.
Height-Above-Ground (HAG) Menu
Use the HAG menu to set the distance from the bottom of
the receiver to the ground while holding the receiver. With
the HAG set, you can take accurate below-ground depth
measurements without placing the receiver on the ground. HAG
resets to Off when the F5 receiver powers off.
Background Interference Check
At the Locate screen or in Interference Noise Check mode
(under Diagnostics) with no active transmitters in range,
walk the bore path while checking for background noise.
Mark areas with increased background noise (red flags
used below).
One-Person Background Signal Strength Check
Conduct this check for all transmitters/frequencies you have
available (up to five), then use the one with the lowest ambient
interference level (signal noise). When drilling, the signal from the
transmitter must be at least 150 points above the ambient noise
level. Where noise is excessive, data signal may be temporarily
random or unavailable.
