Beware of multiple services. C.Scope Locators will not always indicate services
that are close together or one above the other.
Do not use the equipment in areas where hazardous gases may be present.
Check for underground services before using the Earth Stake.
ALWAYS
EXCAVATE
WITH CARE
C.Scope Locators detect services radiating a detectable signal.
There may be some services that do not radiate and cannot be located.
Do not use the equipment outside of the temperature range -10˚C to +50˚C
as the batteries may cease to function adequately.
Geographical conditions such as hills and mountains may effectively screen signals
and prevent a detectable Radio signal.
C.Scope Locators alone will not always locate every service.
Use a Generator or Transmitter wherever possible.
The C.Scope Generator/ Transmitter leads UST NOT be connected directly to
a live service.
Performance may be impaired by unusually strong electromagnetic fields.
Do not hold the Locator earpiece close to the ear for extended periods.
WARNINGS
Always make sure that the Locator and Generator/ Transmitter are set to the same
frequency when used together.
Do not touch the metal of the C.Scope Generator/ Transmitter Crocodile Clips or
of the Plastic Pipe Tracer terminals when in use.
2
It is recommended that the operation of the Locator and Generator/ Transmitter is regularly chec ed (see pages 52-55).

CXL2 DXL2 XL2 Locator Features
4
The C.Scope CXL2, DXL2 and XL2 Locators are Pipe and Cable Locators that
can provide precise information about the position and depth (DXL2 and XL2 only)
of buried services. The combination of locating modes ensures buried services
are detected quickly and reliably.
AUTO ATIC DAILY SELF TEST
The CXL2, DXL2 and XL2 Locators have an automatic
daily self test feature which is activated the first time that
the Locator is switched on each day. The display indicates
‘ ’ and a test countdown when performing the test.
(See pages 16-17 for more details).
DATA LOGGING
A data logging feature allows a record to be kept of all
Locator activity for analysis on a PC. The Bluetooth™
version also allows live map location and other functions.
(See page 51 for more details).

SGA2/SGV2 Signal Generator and XT2 Transmitter Features
6
The C.Scope SGA2 and SGV2 Signal Generators are an
ideal accompaniment to the CXL2 and DXL2 Locators.
The SGA2 has the facility of high and low output power and
can operate with a pulsed or continuous output signal.
The SGV2 additionally has a display showing the battery
condition and power output indication. The SGV2 has four
levels of output power that can be selected by the user.
The C.Scope XT2 Transmitter is an ideal accompaniment
to the XL2 Locator.
The range of operating frequencies and adjustable
power output is designed to make the XL2 and XT2
combination an extremely versatile Pipe and Cable Locator
that is able to tackle many varied locating tasks.

XT2 Transmitter Features
Locator Operating odes: Power ode
NOTE Generally these services should be detectable using the Radio or Generator/ Transmitter odes.
In Power ode the Locator detects power signals.
These power signals are present on all current carrying
electricity cables although not all are detectable. Power
signals may also flow along other conductors such as
metal gas and water pipes, telecom cables, metal fences
and railway tracks.
Limitations of Power Mode
Not all electricity cables can be found using the Power
ode. Here are the most important examples of
electricity cables that may not be detectable in the
Power ode:
Street lighting cables. When the lights are off, no
current flows and so no power signal is created.
Supplies to buildings or plant using very little or no
electricity may not have a detectable power signal.
Pot-ended or capped cables. These will never have any
current flowing through them but are possibly still live.
Disused or abandoned cables.
A few high voltage electricity cables. These can be
‘well balanced’, electrically and therefore radiate little
or no power signal.
Direct Current cables (such as those found on some
railway systems). These do not create their own
power signals.
Cables more than 3 metres deep.
WARNING Locators can only detect services radiating a detectable electromagnetic signal.
There may be some services that do not radiate these signals and cannot be located.
WARNING Absence of a power signal does not mean the service is not live.
