INSTRUCTIONS
Additional copies of this manual are available upon request at no charge.
Do not attempt to repair this test instrument. It contains no user-serviceable parts. Failure to observe this precaution can result in damage the instrument.
Replace weak or discharged batteries as soon as either of these conditions is detected.
Verifying Cable Pairs
To verify that the correct wire pair has been traced, use either of these methods:
Method 1:
1. Separate the two wires into a “V” shape.
2. Place the probe tip near the center of the “V.”
• If the 45082 does not detect a signal at the center of the “V,” but does detect a signal as the probe is moved closer to each wire, the two wires are correctly paired.
• If the 45082 detects a signal at the center of the “V,” the wires are either incorrectly paired or one of the wires is faulty. Move the 45082 closer to one wire and then the other. The wire that has a signal is one of the wire pair. The wire without a signal is either not a part of the pair or has a fault, such as high resistance, an open or a short to ground.
Method 2:
1. Connect the wires together to create a short circuit.
2. Place the probe tip near the wires. The 45082 will not detect the signal if the wires are correctly paired and short circuited. If the 45082 does detect the signal, this indicates a fault such as high resistance or an open circuit.
Description
The 45082 Pair Tracing Probe is intended to trace wire pairs. It can detect signals between 500 Hz and 1.2 kHz. For best results, use the 45082 Pair Tracing Probe with the 45081 Tone Generator.
Specifications
Battery Quantity and Type ..................... one 9-volt
Frequency Range ...................... 500 Hz to 1.2 kHz
Operating Range ............ approx. 6 miles (10 km)
Operation
1. See the tone generator manufacturer’s instructions. Connect the tone generator to the cable pair and turn it on.
2. Hold the 45082 Pair Tracing Probe near the tone generator. Press the ON switch to check for the presence of the tone generator’s tone.
3. Set the Gain Adjustment to “Far”. Trace the cable.
Note: Rotate the Gain Adjustment Knob
toward “Near” to reduce the gain as necessary. The correct wire is the one with the strongest signal.
