switch directly to the mode selected, Pair Identify, Open
Circuit, Short Circuit or Exchange Connect. The Red

PAIR IDENTIFICATION
(1) Connect the Blue and Red Oscillator leads to the line (Red

on by pressing the POWER button. Select the type of tone by
pressing the TONE button. The tone can be monitored using
the Probe.
(2) Move to far end of line and use Probe tip to identify cable
pair carrying the Oscillator Signal. The Probe sensitivity can be
selected by pressing the TONE button. The pair can be verified
by checking for a null (minimum signal) between the wires
carrying the tone.
No null will be found if the pair is
