7B-3
Find conductors underground
!
– Make the measuring circuit zero-potential.
Connect the sender to the desired cable and the protective earth and switch it on. Please ensure that the
loop between the desired cable (red) and the earthing (black) is as big as possible. If the distance between
them is to short, the receiver may not be able to locate the signal at maximum range. See also tips 2 and
3 as well as application 7B-6 on the next page.
Recommended setting for the receiver: Automatic search mode, see chapter 5B.
Tip 8: To increase the receiver's range, set the output power of the sender to the highest level. See chapter 3.
Tip 9: Pay attention to the bars indicated on the receiver during the search. They fluctuate greatly when
panning the receiver over the desired cable. When the device is directly above the cable, the display shows
the highest number of bars.
7B-4
Locate heating and water pipes
– Make the measuring circuit zero-potential.
!
– The heating pipes must be separated from the earth connection. Otherwise the receiver may not
be able to locate the transmission signal at maximum range.
Connect the sender with the black
cable (-) to the protective earth and
with the red cable (+) to the radiator.
See image i. The radiator must not be
earthed while you do this. Then turn
on the receiver and begin searching.
Also follow tips 2 and 3.
Recommended setting for the
receiver: Automatic search mode, see
chapter 5B.
