Start sweeping the area with the R-5000. Keep the receiver 50-FT (15m) apart from the transmitter. 3.
Adjust the sensitivity of the R-5000 as needed 4.
When a conductor is located, pinpoint the strongest signal and mark the location 5.
Repeat steps 1 and 2. Move the transmitter at least 3.3-FT (1m) and 90-degree from the initial position. 6.
Repeat the process until the right cable is detected. 7.
depth and Current Measurements
When the receiver is located directly over the centerline (the left/right position is at the null), the Depth button (“down” section
of 4-way navigation key) can be used to estimate both the depth and current of the target line. The receiver must be at rest,
and held in a vertical position with the tip on the ground. At this position, the audio output is silent, indicating that the receiver
is at the centerline.
When the Depth button is pushed, the receiver averages the signal strength for a few seconds and displays the results.
Push the 4-way navigation button (down) to measure the depth and current •
