Reading iD Markers

The operator can retrieve the data from the iD marker by pressing Read
[SK] (on the locate screen or the depth screen).
The receiver tip should be lowered to the ground to reach maximum read depth.
If more than one 3M EMS iD Marker of the same utility is detected, the
™
receiver will read the first marker and display the data from the marker.
The fourth yellow command key will be labeled "Read Next". Press this key
to extract the data from the other marker.
All the information retrieved from the marker, including the date and time
read, is saved into the 'Read History' file of the receiver. If a hand-held GPS
unit is used in conjunction with the receiver, coordinates can be saved into the
Read History. (See Reviewing Marker History)
