● Talk / OFF / Mon. →Test mode switch：
The Data Diver has three basic modes of
operation: Talk mode, OFF mode and
Monitor mode. Before using the MT-8006B,
please set the Data Diver to proper mode;
otherwise, it will remain in the OFF mode.
(Your Data Diver is set at the “OFF” position before your first use)
T
alk Mode:
The “Talk” mode gives an off hook condition for dialing and talking as
a common battery telephone. It is also available for memory dialing,
last number dialing, caller dialing, redialing…etc.
7
OFF Mode
A. The “OFF” mode can be operated as either power off function
or voltage inspection.
B. Before testing the line, please slide the switch to the “OFF”
position to detect if any voltage exists. When “HI” LED lights up,
please disconnect from the tested line to avoid any damage to
the Data Diver
C. If the “HI” LED does not light up, then you can slide the switch to
either “Talk” or “Mon” position for testing operation
D. If the “HI” LED flashes and the ringer is ringing, it means there
is an incoming call, slide the switch to “Talk” mode, then it can
be used as a common telephone.
E. For safety reason, please use the “OFF” mode to inspect the
AC or DC voltage of unknown lines before testing
Monitor mode
The “Mon” position removes the transmitter from the circuit and the
“Mute” LED will light up automatically. It provides a high impedance
coupling to allow line monitoring without disrupting conversations or
signaling. If there is any signal present, there will be sound coming
from the speaker
When the Data Diver is in either “Talk” or “Mon” mode, the
battery will supply power to the memory operation and Mute
LED until it is drained. Please make sure the switch is in “OFF”
position when not in use.
● PULSE/TONE Switch

Battery and fuse replacement
If the Data Diver fails to operate properly, or stops working, replace
the battery and retest. Do not
use rechargeable batteries.
To replace the battery:
1. Disconnect the Data
Diver from the line and
place on a flat work
surface with the battery
cover up.
2. Use a Phillips
screwdriver to remove
the two screws from the
battery compartment.
3. Remove the battery cover
4. Remove the old batteries and properly discard.
5. Insert 4pcs of 1.5V AAA batteries into the Data Diver and
observe the proper polarity.
6. Place the battery cover back and fasten the two screws
securely. Do not over tighten screw. Over tightening will strip
the plastic.
Fuse replacement
If the Data Diver still stops working after a new battery is replaced, it
may be caused by a blown fuse.
To replace the fuse:
1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two screws from the
battery compartment.
2. Remove the battery cover
3. Remove the old fuse
4. Insert a same specification (ø5xL20mm, 250mA/250V) of fuse
5. Replace the battery cover, then fasten the two screws securely
taking care not to over tighten,
Caution：
Before the battery or fuse replacement, please set it in "OFF" mode
position as power off and disconnect the Data Diver from the line.
Remove the angled bed of nails, and stay away from any power
source or other electric equipment to avoid any electric shock
12
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, do not perform any servicing other
than that contained in the operating instructions unless you
are qualified to do so.
Disconnect clips from any metallic connections before
performing any maintenance.
If moisture should get inside the Data Diver, let the Data Diver dry at
normal room temperature for 24 hours. DO NOT HEAT THE DATA
DIVER. Moisture can provide a leakage path that may conduct
hazardous voltages to you. DO NOT USE the Data Diver if wet.
Keypad Care
Daily use of your Data Diver results in various liquids, dirt, and other
foreign material building up in your keypad. The keypad may be
cleaned by using a soft toothbrush with soap and water.
Do not use a petroleum-based or chlorinated cleaning agent as it will
harm the keypad. Let the Data Diver dry before using!
Data Diver Trouble Shooting:
1. The MT-8006B Data Diver is a professional telecom tool,
especially designed for checking telecom lines. It is not allowed to
be used under the power source AC100~125V 50/60Hz or
AC200~250V 50/60Hz; otherwise, it may cause the danger of
electric shock or product damage.
2. If there is any crosstalk in application, generally it is the
interference from the telecom line; please check if the angled bed
of nail clips well connected to the telecom line.
3. If any abnormal situation is found while you are using the Prokit's
Data Diver, please test the other telecom line in the different area
to identify the possible defective situation referring to the trouble
shooting list below. (Attention! Please never have the angled bed
of nail clips connected to the power source for safety reason.)
4. If the Data Diver still doesn't work after the first step of fix-up,
please send back to Prokit’s distributor for repairing
13
Caution：
If the Data Diver connected to a line with voltage over 100V, the fuse
will be blown, and it may also caused the IC protection function to
start and lock the Data Diver. When it happens, please remove all
batteries, and wait for 5-10 minutes until all power is dissipated, then
place the batteries back and restart the Data Diver.
