New: The Perform Level Check feature now displays the numeric value of the surface grade. Knowing the
surface grade is helpful for maintaining a consistent drilling depth. See
Locating Screens
Depth Screen, Max Mode
Helpful: During deep bores or around extreme interference conditions, the locating ball and/or locate line (LL)
may not center properly in the box. Try rotating the locator up at different angles to center the ball or LL and
acquire depth and pitch. Continue trying different angles if needed when the receiver has entered Max Mode.

Batteries and Power On/Off
New: Falcon F5 is now compatible with two 8" wideband transmitters: FTR5s (Sub-k Rebar) and FT2s
(original). These require a single lithium 123 3V battery. Insert the positive end first. The battery should
provide a maximum of 3.6 VDC and will last up to 12 hours.
Sleep Mode
Clarification: A transmitter can be awoken from sleep mode with a roll as little as two clock positions, or 60
degrees. A half-turn (180°) is not necessary.
Attenuated Signal
Clarification: The receiver will not calibrate when the signal strength is flashing red, indicating the presence
of extreme interference. When the A icon flashes red and the receiver is close enough to the transmitter to
raise the signal strength to 1185, the receiver will not show a depth.
