Using the Generator/ Transmitter:

Output Power Level and Pulse/ Continuous Output

Output Power Level

The SGV Generator and the MXT Transmitter have four, selectable output

power levels. The SGA Generator has two selectable output power levels.

For long distance tracing or for detecting deep services it is always best to

use the highest power setting of the Generator/ Transmitter. Please note

that higher power settings will drain the batteries more quickly than lower

power settings.

For tracing work close to the signal application point, especially when using

Induction Mode, the lower power settings are better.

Pulsed/ Continuous Output

For most locating work a Continuous signal output is best and MUST

be used for any Depth or Signal Current Measurements.

A Pulsed signal output can be useful when it has become difficult

to distinguish the Generator/ Transmitter signal from unwanted

interference, for example, when tracing services over long distances

or at greater depths.

NOTE The 640/512Hz signal can only be applied as a Continuous signal and by using the Direct Connection Leads

(MXT Transmitter only).

NOTE When using accessories such as Signal Clamps, Signal Injectors and Plastic Pipe Tracers it is normally

best to use the highest power setting.
