Figure 3-3: Configuration for Testing the Conductive Attachment
To test the conductive attachment for loose or broken wires:
12
Connect the BLACK and RED ends of the Conductive Attachment together. Lay the connected wires out on the floor
in a circular configuration (see Figure3-3). Plug the Conductive Attachment into the DIRECT/4820 CLAMP jack of
the Transmitter.
13
Turn the Transmitter on by pulling the POWER SWITCH up.
14
Place the Receiver tip directly on one of the conductive wires.
15
Turn the MODE SWITCH on the Receiver to the fourth position (field strength only). The field strength should be the
same or very close to the reading in test procedures 5 and 6 above. The reading should be constant and not fluctuate.
16 While watching the field strength readout, wiggle each connection point on the Conductive Attachment at the
DIRECT/4820 CLAMP jack and at the clamp end of each of the Conductive Attachment wires (red and black). The
field strength should not change. Any fluctuation in the reading indicates a loose or broken wire within the conductive
attachment.
17
Repeat step 16 on the other conductive wire.
18
Turn the Transmitter OFF.
