Before You Begin; System Setup; Setting Up Your System - SPX RADIODETECTION RD7100 Guide D'utilisation

Before you begin

IMPORTANT!
This guide is intended to be a quick reference guide. We recommend you read the
full operation manual before you attempt to operate the RD7100 locator.
First use
The RD7100 locators and transmitters can be powered by D-cell alkaline batteries, D-cell
NiMH batteries, or by an accessory Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack.
To fit the D cell batteries in the locator, open the battery compartment and insert two
D-Cell Alkaline or NiMH batteries, taking care to align the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminals as indicated.
To fit the D cell batteries in the transmitter, unlatch the accessory tray. The battery
compartment is located underneath the transmitter body. Use the turnkey to unlatch the
battery compartment. Insert eight D-Cell Alkaline or NiMH batteries, taking care to align
the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals as indicated.
Alternatively, you can power the transmitter from a mains or vehicle power source using a
Radiodetection supplied optional accessory adapter.
Rechargeable battery packs
Lithium-Ion battery packs are available for both locators and transmitters, providing
superior performance over traditional alkaline batteries. To fit these rechargeable packs,
follow the instructions provided with each pack.
Checking your system software version
If you wish to check which version of software is running on your locator, press and
hold the key when switching the locator on. This information may be asked for when
contacting Radiodetection or your local representative for technical support.
Transmitters automatically show their software version on startup.

System setup

It is important that you set up the system according to regional / operational requirements
and your personal preferences before you conduct your first survey. You can set the
system up using the menus as described below.

Setting up your system

The RD7100 locator and transmitter menus allow you to select or change system options.
Once entered, the menu is navigated using the arrow keys. Navigation is consistent on both
the transmitter and the locator. When in the menu, most on-screen icons will temporarily
disappear and the menu options will appear in the bottom left-hand corner of the display.
The right arrow enters a submenu and the left arrow returns to the previous menu.
