Accessories Included
Most 500XP/FP probe kits come fitted with a plastic tip and
one metal spare as well as a wrist strap that may be fitted if
needed.
Probe Tips
The probe tips can be simply unscrewed and swapped.
Optional Accessories
Headset
A headset or earbud with 2.5 mm jack plug (part numbers
HS001 or EB001) may be used with the 500XP/FP. When
plugged in, the loudspeaker is disabled and all sound is repro-
duced in the headset.
Use of any other headset may compromise user safety. The
output level limiting built into 500XP/FP is tailored for Greenlee
headsets. Use of other headsets may result in sound levels that
could, with long-term exposure, cause hearing damage.
Complementary Products
The 500XP/FP can be used with any audio tone generator that
produces a signal of a few volts or more in the frequency range
400 Hz to 3 kHz when in
basic
mode. For optimum performance
in filtered modes, precision tone generators from Greenlee are
recommended because they produce precise filtered frequen-
cies of 577 Hz and 983 Hz, chosen as not being harmonics
of AC mains power at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. Examples are 77GX,
TG600J, 177, PE7780, and tone generator features of NC-100,
NC-500, TM-700, and the Sidekick
®
range of testers.
Use with other oscillators in the filtered modes is possible but
not recommended as their imprecisely controlled, low-cost
circuitry may produce tones that are filtered out by 500XP/FP
and may therefore not be audible when noise cancelling filters
are active.
