Page 13: Operating The Locator
4. Operating the Locator 1) Settings Before use, it is necessary to adjust settings and perform depth calibration. Pressing the MODE button from the measurement screen will bring up the settings screen. (indicated in the diagram below) Navigate the menu by pressing the locate (▲) and L/R (▼) button. (The current selected setting will appear in red) To make your selection, Press the MODE button. - Page 14 Ⅱ) Selecting a wireless channel Set the locator and the monitor to the same wireless channel. ※The minus mark [-] as indicated in the figure below means that the transmission is off. In the case of poor reception quality or interference, please change to a different channel. b) Toggle between channels c) Press MODE again a) Navigate to the wireless icon...
- Page 15 2) Selecting the measurement mode There are two scanning methods available: One for measuring the lateral position (L/R) of the drill from a long distance (long distance mode), and one for measuring the position from directly above the drill (Near distance mode). There are two settings to switch between scanning methods: AUTO mode switches automatically, and MANU mode allows the user to switch between methods manually.

Page 16: Depth Correction (Calibration)
3) Depth correction (Calibration) Ⅰ) Set-up From a position of 3m from the boring head, place the locator as indicated in the diagram below. a) Insert the probe inside the boring head b) Place the boring head so that the axis of the locator and the axis of the boring head are parallel to each other Ⅱ) Starting calibration Turn the locator ON and begin depth calibration. - Page 17 4) Measuring noise As the levels of outside noise varies between job sites, the range of transmission will change. For this reason it is useful to take a reading of the noise level of the jobsite before beginning. Ⅰ) Perform calibration as described in section 3) - Depth Correction (calibration) Ⅱ) Remove the batteries from the probe so that there is no signal coming from it.
