10. Mark the location directly below the receiver’s display screen on the ground as the LL. You can take a
depth reading here by holding in the trigger. However, to be certain you are directly above the trans-
mitter, and your depth reading is accurate, you should first find the RLP.
NOTE: If the locate line does not appear, move the receiver in a forward/aft direction over where
you think the tool is located. You will see the locating target jump from the bottom of the
screen to the top (or vice versa). Then hold the trigger; this should re-reference the
receiver to the transmitter's signal and bring up the locate line.
Finding the RLP to Confirm Transmitter Heading and Position
Finding the RLP will allow you to confirm the transmitter’s heading and position. Like the FLP, the RLP is
represented as a target
( ) on the receiver display. Once the RLP is found, you will connect the RLP to
the FLP with a line that represents the exact heading of the transmitter. The transmitter is located at the
point where this line intersects the LL.
Continue the locating procedure as follows:
11. From the LL, facing toward the drill or last transmitter location, walk forward keeping the target
aligned on the vertical crosshairs.
