5/ INTERFERENCE
Certain electronic devices as well as electrical and elec-
tromagnetic installations can significantly interfere with
transceiver signals.
These sources are:
• Carried: smart phones, radios, cameras, heart rate
monitors, GPS, etc.
• Permanent: relay towers, power lines / electricity gen-
erating equipment, ski lifts.
In order to reduce the risk of signal deterioration, we rec-
ommend that you keep your transceiver as far as possible
from sources of electrical and electromagnetic activity.
5.1/ RECOMMENDATIONS IN SEARCH
MODE
Move all metallic and electronic devices at least 50cm
away from your transceiver.
5.2/ RECOMMENDATIONS IN TRANSMIT
MODE
Move all metallic and electronic devices at least 20cm
18
away from your transceiver.
5.3/ ACTIVE INTERFERENCE MANAGEMENT
With the huge increase in the use of wearable electronic
devices, the potential has increased for electromagnet-
ic interference with the search signal. These incidences
have primarily been observed near ski areas. Active inter-
ference management is a default setting on the NEO PRO,
allowing your device to detect interference zones and, if
necessary, reduce the search strip width. The user can
then adapt their search strategy accordingly.
With no interference, the theoretical search strip width
is 70m. If there is any interference, the device will reduce
the search strip width to 30m and display an "Sr30" mes-
sage.
If the interference increases and reaches a second
threshold, the device will reduce the search strip width
to 15m and display an "Sr15" message.
In the event of interference, it is important to adapt your
search technique by narrowing your search strips to 30m
or 15m based on the level of interference.
