Procedure for connection of the receiver
Set up the receiver.
- Use the military connectors to plug the hand-held receiver to the listening device.
- Connect the carrying rod to the listening device.
Your receiver is ready to use!
IMPORTANT: The listening device has three long feet, to ‘listen’ to vibrations.
If you are working over a hard surface like
concrete, pavement, asphalt, etc., just put the
listening device on the ground.
If you are working over a soft surface like
grass or earth, we recommend pushing with
your foot the listening device in the ground.
Push until you reach hard enough soil.
Things to know about the gain:
The gain is the sensitivity of the receiver. When you switch it on, the default value is ‘Gain 1’.
Gain 1 is used when you are still close to the transmitter, and the signal is strong enough.
As distance increases, the signal will slowly decrease. Once the signal is too low, you will switch
to ‘Gain 10’ to have a better sensitivity, and you will better ‘hear’ the signal.
IMPORTANT: Depending on the soil compaction, it is sometimes necessary to immediately
switch to gain 10, even few meter, or feet, away from the transmitter. It is all about compaction
of the ground.
