Tracing Energized Wires - Smart Sensor
Set-up:

Test Leads
AT-8000-TE
1. Plug the green and red test leads into the Transmitter.
2. Connect the green wire to a separate neutral.
3. Connect the red test lead to the wire being traced,
For receptacles, make sure to connect the test lead to
the line/phase wire. For Energized systems the signal
will ONLY be transmitted between the load-side to
which the Transmitter is connected and the source
of power.

Energized Smart SensorTM Mode
The Smart SensorTM enables easier wire tracing by
showing the direction and position of the wire and is the
recommended method for tracing Energized wires.
ENERGIZED:
DE-ENERGIZED:
1. Tur n o n the Receiver and select SMART SENSORTM
mode using the directional arrows.
2. Hold the Receiver with the Smart Sensor
the target area.
3. Move the Receiver in direction indicated by the
arrow on the screen. If the screen ashes a “?”
in a red target then either no signal is detected
or the signal is not adequate enough to display
direction; increase the sensitivity using the “+”
button on the Receiver.
4. Press ENTER when complete to return to the
home screen.

TIP: For best results, keep the Receiver at least 1 m
(3 feet) from the Transmitter and its test leads to
minimize signal interference and improve wire
tracing results. Select the “Long” Smart Sensor
Range in the Settings Menu if working with
wires that are greater than 1 m (3 feet) deep.

1. Tur n o n the Receiver and select either Energized
or De-energized TIP SENSOR mode using the
directional arrows.
2. Hold the Receiver with the Tip Sensor facing the
target area.
3. Scan the target area with the Tip Sensor to nd the
highest signal level, then begin tracing the detected
wire. Increase or decrease sensitivity of the Receiver
by pressing + or - on the keypad as necessary.
4. Press ENTER when complete to return to the
home screen.
TIP: In Energized mode, align the groove on the Tip
Sensor with the wire direction for best results; the
signal may not be detected without this alignment.
De-energized mode uses a different antenna in the
Tip Sensor than Energized mode. Specic alignment
of the Tip Sensor groove to the wire is not required.
De-energized wire tracing results are based only on
how close the Tip Sensor is to the wire.
Align
1. Tur n o n the Transmitter.
2. Veri fy that the test leads are properly connected;
the red LED voltage status light should be on
for circuits with voltage above 30 V AC/DC, and
it should be off for De-energized circuits below
30 V AC/DC.
3. Select HIGH signal mode by pressing HI.
