Direction Enable
Direction Enable allows the operator to set a
reference for current flow on a target line. It is
useful for maintaining line identity on jobsites
where multiple utilities are present. Direction
Enable is only available:
• on UtiliGuard and UtiliGuard+ units;
• in line location mode; and
• at frequencies of 10kHz and below.
To use Direction Enable:
1. On the transmitter menu, navigate to
Settings>Output>Direction Enabled and
select “Enable.”
2. Ensure the function is available by looking
for the Direction Enable icon (1) on the
receiver.
3. Stand approximately 10 ft (3 m) from the transmitter with the receiver positioned so that the compass
heading (3) is perpendicular to the target line. Face away from the transmitter.
4. Press and hold the Frequency button to set the direction of current flow. An arrow (2) will appear on the
compass heading.
5. Continue locating.
IMPORTANT:
• Power output is reduced when Direction Enable is in use.
• Direction Enable is not available when transmitter is set to High Output.
