Standard Receiver Display Screen Symbols
Transmitter Roll – The transmitter’s 12 roll clock positions are represented by the lines at the
edge of the circle. The dot aligns with the clock position, and the clock setting appears in the
center to indicate the roll of the transmitter. When roll offset is used, the roll position is denoted
by a hollow dot in place of the solid dot on the clock face and “RO” is shown.
Roll/Pitch Update Meter – The update meter shows the quality of data reception from the
transmitter (specifically, data rate). This feature lets you know if you are in an area of interference
or are reaching the range limit of the transmitter. On the MFD or FSD remote display with SE
software, the same symbol is used for the telemetry update meter.
Transmitter Pitch Angle – The number next to this icon on the locating screen indicates the
transmitter pitch. It is also the menu selection icon for changing the pitch angle units between
percent and degrees.
Transmitter Signal Strength – The number next to this icon on the locate mode screen
indicates the transmitter signal strength. During a calibration failure, an up or down arrow with
this icon indicates signal strength is too high or too low, respectively.
Transmitter Temperature – The number next to this icon shows the temperature of the
transmitter (Fahrenheit when depth units are in feet or inches, Celsius when depth units are in
meters). An up or down arrow and a change in the thermometer level will accompany a change
in temperature. The icon will display steam and flash when the transmitter becomes dangerously
hot and must be cooled immediately or it will be damaged.
Receiver Icon – Indicates the position of the receiver relative to the ground for the HAG function,
depth readings, the two-point calibration procedure, and the remote steering function.
Ground Level – Represents the ground for the HAG function, depth readings, and the two-point
calibration procedure.
Locating Icon – Represents a bird’s-eye view of the receiver. The square at the top of this icon
is referred to as the “box” in the terms target-in-the-box and line-in-the-box locating.
Locate Target – Represents the front and rear locate points (FLP and RLP). When the locate
line appears, the locate target will become a solid circle (ball) representing the approximate
locate point. See the Locating section for more information.
Locate Line – Represents the locate line (LL). The LL is found at some location between the
front and rear locate points only after a reference point has been obtained. See the Locating
section for more information about the locate line.
R
Reference Lock – Indicates that a reference signal has been obtained for locating the trans-
mitter. See the Locating section for more information.
Transmitter Battery/Drill Head – Depicts the remaining battery life of the transmitter when
alkaline batteries are used (shown fully charged here). Also used to represent the position of the
drill head relative to the receiver in the depth screen.
Receiver Battery – Depicts the remaining battery life of the receiver (shown 80% full here).
Displayed on the main menu screen. When empty, the icon will appear in the locate mode screen
and will flash signifying that it is critical to change the battery immediately.
Remote Steering – Allows the remote steering function to be turned on, off, or programmed to a
new reference depth.
Globe Icon – Identifies the regional designation number that appears on the receiver startup
screen; must match that on the transmitter battery compartment.
Trigger Click Prompt – Appears on the calibration screens to indicate that a trigger click is
required.
