Receiver RECV: Set receiving mode
!
The integrated external voltage warning (Q) of the receiver must not replace checking for zero
voltage!
5A
Mains voltage recognition
This mode works without a sender and is activated by pressing button 16. „NVC"
appears on the LCD. This mode can be used to speci cally locate live lines.
The strength of the electromagnetic eld is displayed as bars. An additional acoustic
receiver signal indicates in various pitches how far away the live cable is. The higher
the pitch, the closer the live cable is. If external voltage is present, a warning symbol
(Q) is displayed.
5B
Automatic search mode
This mode only works with the sender. It is active as soon as the device is turned
on and the LC display shows „SIG". The device automatically sets the sensitivity in
order to achieve optimal measuring results. Select this setting by pressing the Mode
button.
The signal strength is indicated in bars and may be read numerically. An additional
acoustic receiver signal indicates in various pitches how far away the desired cable
is. The higher the pitch, the closer the desired cable is. The numerical display is the
most exact way of locating the cable.
The sender code transmitted from the sender and the output power of the transmis-
sion signal are displayed as well. If external voltage is present, a warning symbol (Q)
is displayed.

Manual search mode
This mode only works with the sender and is selected by
pressing the Mode button. „SENSE" appears on the LC dis-
play. Use the arrow keys to adjust the sensitivity: 1 arch = ma-
ximum sensitivity; 8 arches = minimum sensitivity. Reducing
the sensitivity can be useful, when the area to be measured
needs to be limited to a certain range.
The signal strength is also determined by the output power
of the sender. Therefore, also adjust the sender level in order
to achieve the desired sensitivity.
The signal strength is indicated in bars and provides a
detailed read numerically. An additional acoustic receiver signal indicates in various pitches how far away
the desired cable is. The higher the pitch, the closer the desired cable is. The numerical display is the most
exact way of locating the cable.
The sender code transmitted from the sender and the output power of the transmission signal are displa-
yed as well. If external voltage is present, a warning symbol (Q) is displayed.
