OPTIONAL FEATURES
Tablet Computer with Contour Mapping Application
and Instruction Videos
APL Contour Mapping Application allows
the user access to a more comprehensive collection
of data in order to determine pipe locations and
rule out “false positive” readings.
The user can view data in a graphical format that
more accurately represents the acoustic prole of
the ground beneath them.

Display will remain blank for 10-15 seconds during start up
prior to displaying Sensit logo followed by “Select a depth”.
2. Place measuring device in desired test area. For best results
limit the test length (scan) to 10ft.
3. Using the A or C button select test depth. Deep is greater
than 10ft. Normal is up to 10ft.
4. Using the A or C button select a scan direction. Step to Left or
Step to Right.
5. Using the A or C button select a step distance. 6 or 12
inches. For softer surfaces and/or shallow depths us 6 inch
distances.
6. Place instrument on ground adjacent to the rst mark on your
measuring device.
7. Place foot on footpad.
8. Push the handle rmly forward.
9. Press and release the large black scan button at the top of the
handle (just below the control box).
10. Move to the next test location (slice) adjacent to the next 6 or
12 inch mark on the measuring device.
11. Repeat steps 7-10 until scan distance has been completed.
12. Press the C button to review the “Pipe Map”.
13. Mark the locations on the ground adjacent to the measuring
device as shown on the APL.
14. Move measuring device forward or backward 6-10 ft away
from current location.
Repeat steps 6-13.
15. Repeat scan process as needed to mark location.
