    Note: Observe the limits and safety precautions at all times. 1. Set the switch of the V210 transmitter to “TONE”, the red LED of the transmitter lights up. If the red LED does not light up, please check the battery.
  • Page 9 If you move the probe sensor away from the wire, the tone will decrease and then disappear. 6. If the V210 receiver is difficult or impossible to pick up any signal, please increase the sensitivity level and try again. And double check the suspected points. See ( Figure 3 )

  • Page 13: General Tracing Procedures

    2.12.1 Working with open circuits On detection of an open circuit, the V210 transmitter injects a special radio signal into the circuit, which can be picked up by the V210 receiver probe sensor.
  • Page 14: Working With Short Circuits (And Tracing Circuits)

    Unlike radio signals, magnetic fields are not easily absorbed by nearby conductors and therefore can be picked up by the V210 receiver probe sensor in a wider range of situations (See Fig. 9 as below) Weakened...
  • Page 15: Special Tracing Procedures

    2.13 Special Tracing Procedures In all cases, first set the V210 receiver at a lower sensitivity level and increase it as necessary. Proceed as indicated in the sections of this User’s Manual applicable to your situation.
  • Page 16: To Increase The Pickup Range When Tracing Wires

    ( see Fig.11 ) This last method should be used only as “last resource” and with the V210 receiver set to a lower sensitivity, as it could make the pinpointing of the precise location more difficult due to the much increased range.
  • Page 17: Circuits With Multiple Loads And Branches

    (See Fig. 12), and when these circuits are active or live, the bulk of the current injected into the circuit by the V210 transmitter will be directed to the shorted branch of the circuit. However smaller amounts of current (or stray currents) will flow to the other branches as long these provide a path to ground (i.e.
