METALIC TONE
Metallic tone may be applied between the Ground cord and Red clips of the
TriTone Transmitter 3. This allows the user to apply tone for a variety of
applications.
PAIR IDENTIFICATION
This mode is not dependent on the condition of the grounds or bonds but tone
will not be heard if one side of the pair is open.
Metallic tone can also be used to send tone on one side of a pair. Connect one clip
to the shield/ground and the other clip to the Tip or Ring. This allows the user to
identify a pair with one side open. Using SMPLX 1T, SMPLX 3T, or Triplex makes
this unnecessary.
CABLE IDENTIFICATION
Tone can be used to locate cables. Connect the Ground clip to the shield/ground
and the Red clip to a vacant cable pair, both the Tip and the Ring. A hand-coil
probe and amplifier can be used to pick up the tone in the cable.
