Falcon transmitters with SnooZe™
With DCI's limited-edition Falcon transmitter (Tx) with SnooZe (Z-mode) the Tx
signal can be turned off down-hole and turned back on as needed. This can
extend battery life up to 65+ days for wireline projects that require walkover
capability on demand.
Activate Z-mode
After the initial Tx setup and calibration, activate Z-mode by executing a
Repeating Roll Sequence four times (RRS4) either manually or assisted by the
Aurora® Display's XR® App. On the first RRS4, Z-mode is activated with no signal.
Every RRS4 you execute after the first one switches the Tx between signal or no
signal. For RRS4 instructions, see page 3.
When the Tx has no signal, you cannot use the standard roll sequences (10-2-7
and RRS3) to change bands. To change bands above ground, use the Power On
or Tilt Methods. Search the DCI DigiGuide™ App for steps.
Verify Tx Z-mode and software version
Use the Tx serial number (SN) on the Tx Info Request screen to confirm the
status of the Tx before it goes into the housing and down hole. For steps, search
the DCI DigiGuide App.
The battery chart in this Quick Start Guide is for SnooZe transmitters with
software version 2.1.8.0. If you have an earlier software version, please refer to
an earlier version of this guide.
