Using the Generator/ Transmitter: Direct Connection

5. Connect the black Earth Lead to the Earth Stake (or the

alternative earth point). If your earth point is too far away from

the pipe access point for the black Earth Lead to reach then use

the yellow 10 metre Auxiliary Earth Lead instead.

6. As the Earth Lead is connected to the Earth Stake the audible

signal from the Generator/ Transmitter should change in pitch.

The lower the pitch, then the better the signal will be on the

metal pipe.

If there is no change of tone it may be that some dirt, rust

or paint on the pipe is preventing the Direct Connection Lead

from making a good contact with the pipe. Alternatively it may

be that your earth point is at fault. Change the position of the

Earth Stake or use an alternative earth point.

(SGV Generator and MXT Transmitter only:

There will also be a visual representation of the quality of the

connection in addition to the audible pitch change. The greater

the response on the display then the better the signal will be

on the pipe).

7. Adjust the Output Power Level to suit.

NOTE If it is not possible to use the Earth Stake use a nearby metal fence post, manhole cover or gully cover.

DO NOT use something that may have another metallic service attached to it, such as a metal street lighting column.

NOTE If the Generator/ Transmitter pitch does not change then there is no signal being transferred onto the service.
