Simple beeps confirm operations when configuring the KT-9 for
the various modes of operation.
In the scan mode, a continuous audio tone that is directly pro-
portional to the measured susceptibility is heard. This facilitates
heads-up operation.
Economical operation – By utilizing the latest technology
circuitry, very low power consumption takes place in

the KT-9 . Consequently, a single 9-volt battery is usually suffi-
cient for a full season (up to 10,000 readings under normal con-
ditions).
Storage and transportation – A robust leather case is sup-
plied with the KT-9 . The case can be either carried over the
shoulder on a strap or worn on a belt to facilitate transporta-
tion in the field. The case has a moulded bottom to accommo-
date the sensor head with the pin in order to prevent the KT-9
from sliding around. Consequently, the unit should be stored
sensor down in the case when not in use.
There is also a small compartment under the lid of the carrying
case for storing a spare battery and some accessories, such as a
spare rubber cover, a

Even though the KT-9 has been designed to be a rugged
instrument, it still can be damaged by severe impacts. Also,
please note that the KT-9 is only moisture proof, not water
proof. Consequently, total immersion in water (i.e. falling
into a river, etc.) or long exposure in heavy rains is not advis-
able for either the instrument or the operator.
