13. Very important features

Finding Neon Lightning Circuits without the

transmitter.

The Sniffer is capable to find circuits breakers which

are connected to Neons Light circuitry.

This is usefull to check quickly which circuit breaker is

connected to a neon circuit. Most neons firing current

will induce a signal which can be detected by the

sniffer.

EnerSave

The Sniffer is software driven and has an Auto-off

feature which turn the receiver off automatically after

a certain time. This timer starts when the Sniffer is

turned ON and is not reset by anything.

Mutli Voltage and Multi Frequency

The transmitter has been designed to be able to

operate on 100V or 240V circuits at 50 or 60Hz.

9V Battery

The sniffer uses a 9V batter. Due to it's very low

consumption, any type of 9V battery is suitable.

TIP - SENSOR

The sensor is made out of a SMD inductor. The SMD

inductor can touch the circuit breaker housing

or the insulation of wires.
