Centros™ Manager 5 is a Radiodetection product support application for Microsoft® Windows that can be downloaded via the Radiodetection website.

Once installed onto your PC or laptop, Centros™ Manager can be used for the following:

• Updating the RD7000 and RD8000 locators and transmitters with the latest software.

• Customizing the settings of the RD7000 and RD8000 using Option Editor.

• eCAL™: eCAL™ is a novel Radiodetection technique that allows the operator to validate the original factory calibration of the RD7000 and RD8000 locators, providing the user with confidence that the locator continues to meet its original factory calibration. Each time an RD7000 or RD8000 passes eCAL™ the user can print a validation certificate without the need to return the locator to a service center.

Software Updates

As part of our continuous product improvement strategy, Radiodetection will release new software for the RD7000 and RD8000 family of products from time to time. Updating your locator and transmitter software will improve performance, stability and may include new features. This software is available free of charge.

If users wish to update their units, they are required to download Centros™ Manager and register for Radiodetection's Extended Warranty program. All RD7000 and RD8000 family products are supplied with a 1 year warranty. Customers can extend this warranty on all RD7000 and RD8000 locators and Transmitters to 3 years by registering within 3 months of purchase. Registration is free and also entitles the user to free software updates. Once registered, the user will automatically receive an email notification of new releases of software.

In some circumstances, a Software Update may overwrite user settings on a locator such as Power frequency (50/60Hz) and StrikeAlert™ (Enable/Disable). Users should update the settings on their locator after any update prior to use.
