Locating the Cable or Pipe
Make sure the TRANSMITTER is connected and in the ON position. Then move approximately 15 feet (4.5 meters) away
from the T
RANSMITTER along the path. (Move about 25 feet (7.5 meters) for the Inductive search mode.)
Hold the R
ECEIVER so that you can see the LCD bargraph and controls easily. Make sure the RECEIVER and the
T
RANSMITTER FREQUENCY are both set for the same FREQUENCY, either 815 Hz (lower), 8 kHz or 82 kHz (higher).
Or select the passive locating mode which do not require the transmitter
Selecting the Locating Mode (Peak or Null)
Press the MODE button to select the desired Peak or Null locating method.
Peak Mode Locating
Keep the R
ECEIVER in a vertical position. Move the R
ECEIVER left to right across the path. When the RECEIVER
is directly above the cable or pipe, rotate the R
ECEIVER
for a maximum signal. As you move the RECEIVER
away from the cable path, the meter reading (and audio frequency response) will drop off.
If you rotate the RECEIVER while over the cable, a sharp NULL will identify the cable’s direction. It is aligned
with the flat side of the RECEIVER.
