Radiodetection rd7000+ Bedienungsanleitung Seite 13

Transmitters can be powered by D-cell alkaline batteries (as standard), D-cell NiMH
batteries, or by an optional accessory Li-Ion battery pack. Alternatively, you can power
the transmitter from a mains or vehicle power source using a Radiodetection supplied
optional accessory adapter.
If using D-Cells it is important to set the system to match the currently installed battery
type to ensure optimal performance and correct battery level indication.
To set your battery type:
1. Press the key to enter the menu.
2. Scroll to the BATT menu using the
3. Press the key (on the locator) or the
BATT menu.
4. Scroll up or down to select the correct battery type.
5. Press the key to accept your selection and return to the main menu.
6. Press the key to return to the main operation screen.
When using alkaline batteries Eco mode can be selected to maximize their usage. When
Eco mode is selected the transmitter automatically reduces its max power output when
the batteries cannot longer supply enough energy.
Shutting down
To switch the locator or the transmitter off, press and hold the

Passive Frequencies
Passive frequency detection takes advantage of signals that are already present on
buried metallic conductors. The RD7000+ supports three types of passive frequencies:
power, radio, CPS (DL models only). You can detect these frequencies without the aid of
the transmitter.
Active Frequencies
Active frequencies are applied direct to the pipe or cable using the transmitter. The
transmitter can apply a signal using three methods:
Direct connection
In direct connection, you connect the transmitter directly to the pipe or cable you wish to
survey. The transmitter will then apply a discrete signal to the line, which you can trace
using the locator. This method provides the best signal on an individual line and enables
the use of lower frequencies, which can be traced for longer distances.
