NEVER CONNECT TO LINES KNOWN TO BE
ENERGIZED
DANGEROUS
increase safety, the ground lead should be
attached first. If there were an unknown high
voltage running through the target line, this would
allow a means of redirecting the current away from
the transmitter and operator.
Note: Installations which use plastic pipes will
typically have a trace wire installed along the pipe
for tracing purposes. Simply clip the transmitter
lead to the trace wire.
Power the NaviTrack Brick up by pressing the Power
Key. A multiple tone will sound on powering up. After
a short silence, the unit will begin beeping regularly,
indicating current is flowing.
3. Select a Frequency on the Brick.
The NaviTrack Brick line transmitter offers four
choices of frequency. Frequency is chosen by
pressing on the Frequency Select key which will light
the LEDs in sequence.
Available frequencies are:
1kHz
8kHz
33 kHz
262 kHz
European version: 93 kHz (93,623 Hz.)

To set the unit on 262 kHz, press the Frequency Key
four times in a rapid succession. The 33 kHz LED will
flash rapidly to indicate that the 262 kHz (European
version: 93 kHz) frequency has been set.
4. Check the Circuit and Adjust Power
Level
Confirm the circuit is grounded by ensuring that the
connection to the ground stake is secure and the
stake is firmly embedded in the ground. To adjust the
power level, press the power button briefly. The Brick
will cycle through the low, medium, and high power
levels.
Note – Higher power settings produce more
current, which gives a stronger signal. Less current
prolongs battery life. Signal strength measured by
the receiver is directly proportional to the amount
of current on the line. More current will produce a
stronger signal received by the receiver.
Use only as much current as is needed to get a
strong reading on the receiver.
