Signal strength indicator LEDs The higher the signal strength detected, the more the red indicator LEDs light up.
  • Page 8 When the transmitter is turned on, it generates a specific tracing signal on the wire, creating an electrical current within the wire. This electrical current flows along the wire, passes through the grounding connection to the earth, and returns to the transmitter. The connection method for the transmitter is shown in Figure 3.
  • Page 9 Warning: Before connecting the transmitter, ensure that all equipment are disconnected from the wires to be traced. To avoid electric shock, before turning on the transmitter, connect the red alligator clip to the wire you want to trace and the black alligator clip to the earth or ground.

  • Page 11 of the signal detected by the receiver will change. The volume of the buzzer sound and the number of lit signal strength indicator LEDs will also change accordingly. There are two accepted methods to trace and locate wires: Peak Tracing Method and Null Tracing Method. Null Tracing Method When using the Null Tracing Method, the probe of thereceiver should be vertical and point to the wire.
  • Page 12 Peak Tracing Method When using Peak Tracing Method, the probe of the receivershould be parallel to the ground surface and be vertical to thewire to be traced (see Figure 5). When the probe is directlyover the wire being traced, it will detect the strongest signal.At this point, the buzzer emits the loudest sound, and the highestnumber of red signal strength indicator LEDs will be lit.When you move the receiver's probe from directly over the wireto...

Using the Headphone The receiver can be used with headphones. When using itin a noisy environment, you can insert the headphone pluginto the headphone jack on the receiver to assist in tracingand locating wires or cables.
  • Page 14 The signal of the transmitter and receiver is adjusted to the maximum. Trace and locate the wire by means of the signal intensity indication ( buzzer sound and red indicator LEDs on thereceiver ). When moving the receiver slowly across the wireto be traced, the signal intensity changes considerably.
  • Page 15 Note: Make sure that the connection to the ground is far away from the wire to be traced. The max. tracing depth is about 2 to 3 feet. The tracing depth strongly depends on the ground conditions. During the tracing process, if the environment is excessively noisy, you can use headphones to listen to signal changes.
  • Page 16 At this time, appropriately reduce the sensitivity until the receiver just receives the signal from the transmitter, and this area is the break of the wire.
