One person to hold the receiver and one person to adjust the coil position. Since the ATGC-1 creates a large field, it is possible that the field may be induced onto other known or unknown conductors in the area. By rewinding or recoiling the ATGC-1 so the overall diameter of the coil is smaller, the field will become smaller and may eliminate coupling to adjacent conductors in the area. -

30’ away from where you want to start identifying the location of the conductor. Arrange the ATGC-1 Ground Coil in a circle on the ground approximately 3’ from the top center of the conductor or pipe (Fig. 2). Note: placing the coil directly over the conductor will not induce any signal. -

Remember to keep the receiver tip straight down, perpendicular to the ground with the front label and signal strength indictor facing the direction of the conductor run. To trace pipes or conductors over long distances, move the coil to the place where the signal dropped off and repeat the procedure. - Page 9 A ATGC-1 Ground Coil d B2024 Battery Pack b Conductor or Pipe E Transmitter C Receiver F Top Center of conductor or pipe Fig. 2 – Proper distance for initial setup.
