Operation Manual
EQUIPMENT
The cable detector has been developed to find or trace telecommunication cables and
individual wires without damaging the insulation. Only cables or lines must be connected
that are deenergized. The device operates using a sound generator for safe identification
of lines
• Volume control for adaptation of the sensitivity and ambient conditions
• Protected switch, in order to prevent discharging the battery
• Transmitter and Receiver
• 3.5 mm jack
• Integrated LED flashlight
Maximum length of cable up to 8 km (unloaded)
AMPLIFIER PROBE FEATURES
●
The Amplifier Probe is designed to identify and trace wires or cables within a group
without damaging the insulation.
●
Works with a Tone Generator to identify wires.
●
Volume control for increased sensitivity and adjustable to suit work environment.
●
Recessed ON/OFF button prevents battery drain.
●
Power supply is in any 9V battery with a life of approximately 100 hours.
●
A plug receptacle is provided for headphone.
●
Built-in torch
●
To prove up to 8km
INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Connect one test lead to an unterminated wire and the other test lead to another
unterminated wire.
2.
Depress the round on/off spring-loaded button of the amplifier probe. The volume
control switch can be adjusted to suit the environment. Volume can be increased to
overcome noise, or decreased to reduce interference.
3.
Touch the tip of the amplifier probe to the insulation of each suspect conductor.
4.
Reception of tone will be loudest on the subject wire.
5.
The plug receptacle is provided for connecting to a headphone.
TONE GENERATOR FEATURES (FUNCTIONS)
●
Red and black test leads are provided, and has a standard 4 conductor modular
cord and plug.
●
A 3-position toggle switch controls the modes of operation plus a LED (Light
Emitting diode) is provided for, continuity testing and identifying telephone lines.
●
A tone selector switch is provided for choosing either a single solid tone or dual
alternating tone.
SENDING TONE (SWITCH TO "TONE")
1.
Connect the test leads to the pair, or attach one lead to ground and one lead to
either side of the line.
2.
A dual alternating tone or a single solid tone can be selected from the switch of the
tone generator.
3.
Probe the suspected wires with the amplifier probe. Reception of tone will be
strongest on the subject wire. In cases of ready access to bare conductors,
headphone may be used to receive the tone.
