Pro900™ LOCATOR USER GUIDE
Helpful Hints – Increases in signal strength and/or the size of the area
it is occurring from usually indicates some type of anomaly in the
cabling. Things that could cause this are valves (as described above),
nicks, cuts, bad splices, or cut wires. Cable in good condition does not
normally change the tone or strength, other than a very gradual loss of
reception over distance, but it is possible. Slack loops of extra wire left in
the ground at installation are an example of a condition that would
cause an increase of signal and yet have no problem.
Also, soil condition makes a huge difference in the performance of cable
locators. Basically a circuit is being created from the transmitter, through
the cable, out through the ground and back to the ground stake. Any
discontinuity in any of these links will cause the locator to not work. Be
sure your ground stake is secure and in the dirt and that the transmitter
is connected to the cable you want to track.
The soil serves as the return path for the circuit. When using direct
connection methods, you may have to condition dry or sandy soils to
increase the conductivity of the soil by adding a little water at the ground
stake. The best way to really learn the Pro900™ is to use it. Set up a
test site at your home or office and get used to how it works. There is no
substitute for experience in the art of locating.
In addition, our website has many training videos under the training tab
which can be accessed 24/7. We also have available technical support
with live human beings Monday through Friday from 8am to 4:30pm
EST.
