To activate the Pinpoint feature:
1. Select a marker mode as described in "Normal Operation" above.
When a marker has been detected, the display will show a reading similar to the
"Normal Displays" shown in Figure 14.
2. Without moving the EML100, press the q key to enter the Pinpoint feature.
Press the p key to return to the normal display.
The Bar Graph on the display will disappear temporarily and a percentage number
will appear in the upper right corner. This percentage indicates the amount of gain
remaining.
3. Continue searching the area, and the Bar Graph will reappear as the EML100 is moved
closer to the marker.
4. Use the Pinpoint feature as needed until the exact location of the marker is known.
Note: Activating the Pinpoint feature adjusts the gain horizontally and vertically. If a marker
is buried too deep, or has marginal signal strength, a reading may not be possible using the
Pinpoint feature even if the EML100 is directly over the marker. Reset the gain by pressing
the p key if no markers are being detected.
Figure 15 shows samples of the displays that may be shown in various modes.
