Sonic Tracker Picks Up the Ground, but Does Not Pick Up a Stringline
Solution:
1. To verify if the Tracker detects the stringline, set up the Tracker at least 16 inches over the stringline, then pull up on
the stringline slowly, and verify that the sensor reading on the Control Box’s Control Screen immediately changes.
2. Verify that Tracker is at least 14 inches above the stringline.
3. Smooth, steel wire is not recommended. Use minimum 1/16 inch diameter string for elevated stringline or
averaging ski. Use 1/8 inch string for surface stringline.
4. If using an ST-3, make sure the Sonic Tracker 3 is set to Stringline in the Control Box’s Performance
Menu and that the ST-3 is aligned with the stringline.

3. Disconnect cables and inspect them for damage or contamination. Clean all connections with an electrical
contact cleaner.
4. Check that Trackers are between 14 and 24 inches from reference.
5. If there are gusty winds, lower Tracker closer to reference. Approximately 14 to 16 inches.
