PPECT Mode

PPECT = PPECT Mode is designed to work with the
Power Probe ECT2000 for locating open circuit conditions
in wiring.
When using the ECT2000 to find opens in wiring, the
ECT Transmitter injects a specialized digital signal that is
normally picked up by the wireless ECT Receiver. In some
situations, such as large wiring bundles or limited access,
pinpointing the ECT signal and locating the exact point of
the wire failure may be difficult when using the ECT Receiv-
er alone.
When you select the ECT Mode, the Power Probe IV is now
specifically tuned to detect the ECT open circuit signal. The
Power Probe IV is meant to work by direct contact to the
circuit.
Probe and contact the circuit with the ECT signal on it and
the main display will show "DETECTED" and the Red/
Green LEDs will illuminate, verifying you are the correct
wire. This can greatly aid in detecting opens in tight wire
bundles or confined locations.
