Using the Signal Generator/Transmitter:
Signal Clamp
Signal Clamp
1. Plug the Signal Clamp into the Connection Socket on
the Signal Generator/Transmitter.
2. Turn the Signal Generator/Transmitter on.
For MXT4 only, select either 8kHz, 33kHz or CF frequency.
3. Check that the jaws of the Signal Clamp are clean.
Place the Signal Clamp AROUND the cable making sure that the jaws
are able to fully close. The audible signal from the Signal Generator/
Transmitter should drop in pitch indicating that the jaws have
closed correctly.
WARNING
NEVER attempt to place the Signal Clamp around electricity cables
that are deliberately suspended out of reach. They may be unsheathed or unprotected cables.
NOTE
The Signal Clamp cannot apply a signal to a cable that is not earthed at both ends such as abandoned cables
that have been cut off where they appear above ground or cables supplying unearthed equipment.
