To send stored data to a paired PDA or PC:
Stored data can be transferred wirelessly to a compatible PDA running Radiodetection's
SurveyCERT app or a PDA or PC compatible application.
SurveyCERT
SurveyCERT is the PDA app from Radiodetection which makes utility mapping easier for
surveyors in the field.
You can use SurveyCERT to store survey measurements taken from your locator in your
PDA for later review. SurveyCERT for PDAs, and its operation manual are available as a
free download from the Radiodetection website.
To send data to a paired PDA or PC:
1. Ensure your paired PDA is switched on and running the SurveyCERT app.
2. Press the key to enter the menu.
3. Scroll to the LOG menu using the
4. Press the key to enter the LOG menu.
5. Scroll up or down to the SEND option.
6. Press the key and the locator will attempt to send your stored survey data to your PDA.
Stored data can also be transferred using the USB connection to RD Manager to be
analyzed by the software's built-in SurveyCERT capabilities. Refer to the RD Manager
operation manual for more info on how to retrieve store survey data.
RD Manager's SurveyCERT functionality can be used for post survey analysis, interface to
Google Maps and easy export to GIS/mapping systems.

Automatic Usage-Logging
RD8100 locator models equipped with GPS offer a powerful data logging system which
records all the instrument's critical parameters (including GPS position, if available) and
warnings in its internal memory every second.
The automatic logging system is always active and cannot be disabled. The locator's
memory is capable of storing over 500 days of usage data, when used for 8 hours per day.

Logs can be retrieved using the RD Manager PC application for usage analysis and
survey validation. Refer to the RD Manager operation manual for further information.
GPS
The RD8100 locator can be paired to an external GPS module or use it's internal GPS
module (GPS models only) to be able to detect and store its latitude, longitude and
accurate UTC time alongside its location data. This positional information can then be
appended to Survey Measurements, or the automatic usage-logging system.
The presence of GPS data allows for the data to be mapped easily and to export and
save the information directly into GIS systems.
GPS menu settings
There are 5 options in the GPS menu:
• INT: Select this to use the internal GPS if present.
• EXT: Select this to use the GPS from a compatible paired device.
• OFF: Select this to switch off the internal GPS module and save battery.
• SBAS: Set SBAS (Satellite-based augmentation systems) mode to improve GPS
accuracy. When ON the GPS system will take longer to lock.
• RESET: Select YES to reset the internal GPS (GPS models only).
iLOC
iLOC lets you control the transmitter remotely using your RD8100 locator. With iLOC
you can adjust the output frequency, power settings and use SideStep. iLOC commands
are sent over a Bluetooth module that can operate at distances of up to 450m / 1400ft in
direct line of sight.
iLOC is a standard feature of all RD8100 locator models, and requires a Bluetooth
equipped Transmitter (Tx-10B or Tx-5B).
NOTE: Operating in built up areas and in areas with high electromagnetic
interference may reduce iLOC's performance.
Pairing to a transmitter
To pair to a transmitter you require a Bluetooth enabled model such as the Tx-5B or Tx-10B.
Before you begin, you should switch off all nearby Bluetooth equipment as they may
interfere with the locator and transmitter's pairing process.
