High Push  <1 sec to use high mode for most applications.
Push A to use low mode to trace a precise wire.
In low mode, the Transmitter generates a low signal level to not
Low
oversaturate the Receiver with a signal that covers too large of an area. A
low signal level also reduces coupling to nearby wires and metal objects
that may make it difficult to trace a specific wire.
Push and hold  for ≥2 sec to turn on loop mode.
Use loop mode to trace de-energized wires in a closed circuit such as
Loop
shorted wires, shielded cables, or wires grounded on the far end. Loop
mode automatically disables when the Transmitter connects to an
energized wire. Use loop mode for applications with the Clamp.

Use the Receiver

The Receiver can directly detect a signal on a wire through walls, floors, ceilings, and non-
metallic conduit or pipe. To indirectly trace a wire in non-metallic conduit or pipe, use
conductive fish tape or wire. See

To use the Receiver:
1. Connect and set up the Transmitter in high mode unless otherwise noted.
2. Turn on the Receiver.
Keep the Receiver >1 m (3 ft) from the Transmitter and test leads to minimize signal
interference.
3. If needed, open the settings screen to select the language, brightness of the screen,
volume, and type of breaker (GFI or RCD). See
4. If needed, select a mode.
