Cable locator
Suggestions
1. Adjust the transmit power level to suit different detection radious.
2. The position of the target can be precisely located by setting the receiver's
manual mode and selecting the appropriate sensitivity.
Caution!
1. Contact with the ground must be assured.
2. The transition resistance of a line break must be greater than 100kOhm.
3. The ground connected to the emitter can be an auxiliary ground, ground
from a grounded outlet, or a pipe that is properly grounded.
4. When tracing the line break in multi-conductor cables, pay attention that all
cables remaining in the insulated cable or conductor must be grounded in
accordance with regulations. This is required to avoid cross coupling of the
applied signals (by a capacitive effect of the source terminals). The tracing
depth for the shielded cables and connectors is different, since the individual
wires of the conductors in the shielded cables are twisted together.
