Why are lines jumping all over the screen on my RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment while tracing?
If lines are jumping all over the screen while tracing with your RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment, it could be due to a weak signal or interference. Ensure the transmitter is well connected and grounded, and point the SR-60 at either lead to ensure a complete circuit. You can also try using a higher frequency, connecting to a different point in the line, or switching to inductive mode. Attempt to identify and eliminate any sources of noise, like bonded grounding. Finally, check that the SR-60 batteries are fresh and fully charged.
What to do if my RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment SR-60 will not pick up the signal?
If your RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment SR-60 isn't picking up a signal, verify that you've set the correct mode and frequency. Examine the circuit for potential improvements. Consider relocating the transmitter, changing the grounding or frequency, or adjusting the Signal Focus Control settings.
How to fix RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment SR-60 when it locks up?
If your RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment SR-60 locks up during use, power the unit off, and then back on. If the unit will not switch off, remove the batteries. If batteries are low, replace them.
What to do if my RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment SR-60 will not power on?
If your RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment SR-60 will not power on, check the orientation of the batteries and ensure they are charged. Also, inspect the battery contacts to make sure they are in good condition. It is possible that the unit may have blown a fuse, requiring factory service.
Why is the display dark or light on my RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment?
If the display on your RIDGID Diagnostic Equipment appears completely dark or completely light when switched on, try powering the unit off and then back on. If the issue persists, adjust the LCD screen contrast.
How to adjust sound on RIDGID Metal Detector?
Adjust the sound level in the sound menu. Verify the Proximity Signal is greater than zero.
What to do if lines are jumping all over the screen in the mapping display of RIDGID Metal Detector?
Lines jumping all over the screen indicates that the SR-60 is not picking up the signal or there is interference. Make sure that the transmitter is well connected and grounded. Point the SR-60 at either lead to be sure that there is a complete circuit. You can also try a higher frequency, connecting to a different point in the line, or switching to inductive mode. Try to determine the source of any noise and eliminate it, or check SR-60 batteries are fresh and fully charged.
