DigiTrak F Series Display (FSD)
General Description
The DigiTrak F Series Display (FSD) is a multifunction
display that can be used with a variety of DCI receivers. It
provides the drill rig operator with information from the
receiver about the depth, orientation, and status of the
transmitter. The FSD remote can be powered through
either a DC cable source or an F Series battery pack.
An external 13 in. (33 cm) telemetry antenna is supplied
with your DCI equipment. It mounts onto the remote dis-
play to enhance signal reception up to 1800 ft (550 m)
with line of sight to the receiver. For bore lengths greater
than this or when line of sight is compromised, contact
DCI to purchase one of the optional telemetry antennas.
To meet regional requirements and for proper communi-
cation, one of the frequency designations shown on the
remote’s serial number label (see photo to the right) must
match that shown on the receiver. The receiver’s
frequency designation is located on the serial number
