The preceding screen shows an empty update meter, which means the remote display is not
receiving telemetry data. The roll, pitch, and temperature are provided through the cable.
Depth information will display only when the remote is receiving telemetry data, as indicated
by bars in the update meter, and the receiver is used to take a depth reading.
Roll Offset
Use roll offset to match
the transmitter’s 12 o’clock position with that of the drill head. If roll
offset is required, it must be set on both the receiver
(see your operator’s manual) and the
remote display.
To access roll offset on the remote display, push the right direction button while in the Cable
Mode screen. The roll offset popup menu appears with three options:
Exit
,
Go
, and
Set
.
