Tracing Pairs - Fluke PRO3000 User Manual

Tracing Pairs

To identify a specific pair of wires within a multi-pair cable, do the
following:
1 Put the toner's slide switch in the TONE position.
2 Connect the toner's red lead to one of the wires of the pair and
connect the black lead to the other wire.
3 Press the button once for the continuous tone or twice for the
alternating tone.
4 At the far end of the cable, use the probe to scan the cable's wire
pairs by moving the probe's tip near each pair. You have found
the target wire pair when you find the pair with the loudest
tone.
