4.8.2 Signal search
Start searching in the primary search area for the initial signal detection as well as for visual/acoustic signals. All
participants, observers included, must switch their devices to SEARCH mode (or to standby mode)! Make sure to
follow the external interference distance recommendations and hold the beacon a minimum of 50cm (20") from
all electronic, magnetic, and metallic sources of interference. The BLACK DIAMOND RECON LT has a circular
receiving range that allows a correct indication of direction and distance from the point of initial signal detection
– a specific method such as turning/rotating is not necessary. All signals of the burials that are within the
maximum receiving range are received simultaneously.
Walk the search strip width in the search
area quickly. The recommended search strip
width for the BLACK DIAMOND RECON LT is
50 m. The display shows "no signal".
