2.1 AT-6000-R Receiver
The AT-6000-R Receiver detects the signal in wires and cables using the following methods:
Active (using Transmitter)
The AT-6000-T Transmitter generates a signal capable of tracing either Energized or De-energized wires.
The main advantage this method is the ability to trace the path of the particular wire using
the Receiver. Since the signal is not present in any neighboring wires, the Receiver will
detect only the wire that is connected to the Transmitter.
The active tracing method is used when the Receiver is set to Quick Scan, Precision Tracing
or Breaker Locating.
Passive (without Transmitter)
The passive method utilizes the Receiver by tracing Energized wires between 90-600 V AC
through electromagnetic fields.
This method is both easy and convenient because it does not require the Transmitter.
However, the Receiver is not selective to a particular wire and will indicate any Energized
wire between 90-600 V AC.
This method is best for simple tracing applications where the wire is Energized and no other
wires are located nearby.
Passive tracing method is used when the Receiver is set to Non-contact voltage (NCV) detection mode.
Note: The Receiver will NOT detect signals from a wire through metal conduit or shielded
cable. Refer to Special Applications, section 4.4 "Tracing Wires In Metal Conduit" for
alternative tracing methods.
