They don't.
no. a tiltimeater does. creep meters measure horizontal
Whenever a creep comes around, the Creep Monitor starts to blink and beep. The frequency increases as the creep gets closer.
yes
A creep meter is a wire stretched across a fault to measure the horizontal movement from the ground.
A Creep Meter uses a wire stretched across a fault to measure horizontal movement of the ground.

There are several instruments that are used to monitor earthquake activity. Some of the instruments include magnetometers, creep meters, strain meters and tilt meters among others.
creep is term used for failure of materials under constant load at elevated temperatures. Eg: lathe bed.
four instruments that are used to detect faults are: creep meters, laser-ranging devices, tiltmeters, and satellites. how they work: a creep meter uses a wire stretched across a fault to measure sideways movement the ground. a laser-ranging device uses a laser beam bounced off a reflector to detect any fault movements
it looks like this... Sorry it isn't a good picture but it was the best i could find.
Yes, and so does a GPS satellite.
