Figure 4: Common Display Elements
The display screen in Active Line Trace, Passive Line Trace or
Sonde mode will show the following features:
Signal Angle – Field tilt from the horizontal; an-
gle toward the field's center; numeric value displayed
in degrees.
Battery Level – Indicates level of remaining
battery capacity.
Measured Depth/Distance – Displays the mea-
sured depth when receiver is touching the ground di-
rectly over signal source. Displays computed distance
when the antenna mast is pointed at a signal source
in some other manner. Displays feet/inches (U.S.A. de-
fault) or meters (European default).
Mode – Icon for Sonde
(Passive Line Trace)
Frequency – Shows current frequency setting in hertz
or kilohertz.
+ Crosshairs (Map Center) – Shows operator's position
relative to the target center.

In Active Line Trace Mode, the following features will also be
displayed:
Proximity Signal – Numerical indication showing
how close the signal source is to the locator. Displays
from 1 to 999. (Line Trace modes only.)
Signal Strength – Strength of signal as sensed by
the lower Omnidirectional antenna.
Tracing Line – The Tracing Line represents
the approximate axis of the detected field. It represents
detected distortion in the field by appearing less fo-
cused. (See page 34 for information on setting the sensi-
tivity and how to enable or disable the distortion response
in the Tracing Line.)
Distortion Line – If the normal distortion
response of the Tracing Line is disabled, a second line
is shown, which represents the signal from the upper
antenna node. By comparing the two lines, the user can
estimate the degree of distortion present in a signal.
(See page 36.)
Guidance Arrows – The Guidance Arrows serve
to steer the operator toward the center of the detected
field, by showing when the signals reaching the left and
right Guidance Antennas are out of balance or equal.
The two signals are equal when crossing the center
of an undistorted field. If the signals are unequal, the
Guidance Arrows show which way the field appears to
be relative to the receiver.
mA Current Strength – Proportional to current on
the line. Switches to Signal Angle when Signal Angle is
greater than 35°.
Guidance Line Shows the alignment of the target line
and helps determine when the locator is directly over
the target line. It will be longest when directly aligned
with the target line. Rotation Arrows will appear to in-
dicate which way the SR-60 should be turned to align it
with the field.
