Fault-finding with an A-Frame
The RD7100PL, PLG, TL and TLG models have the ability to detect cable or pipe
insulation faults accurately using an A-Frame accessory. The Tx-5 and Tx-10 transmitters
provide fault finding signals that can be detected by the A-Frame as a result of the signal
bleeding to ground through damaged cable sheaths.
The Transmitter’s multimeter function can be used to measure the impedance of the
connected pipe or cable in order to characterize the fault.
For a detailed guide to fault-finding, please refer to the operation manual.
Plug / Live cable connector
The plug connector is connected to the output of the transmitter and is used to put a
signal onto a line and trace it from a domestic mains plug to the service cable in the
street.
The live cable connector can be used to apply a signal to a live cable. Only suitably
qualified personnel should use this equipment.
Submersible antenna
This antenna is connected to the locator and used to locate pipes and cables underwater
at depths of up to 300 feet / 100 meters.
WARNING: use of the submersible antenna should be by fully licensed and
experienced personnel only, and only after fully reading the operation manual!
RD Manager PC Software
RD Manager is the RD7100 locator system PC companion, and it allows you to manage
and customize your locator. RD Manager is also used to retrieve and analyze survey and
usage data, run an eCert calibration, and to perform software upgrades.
You can use RD Manager to register your products to obtain an extended warranty, setup
your locator by performing a number of maintenance tasks such adjusting date and time,
activating and de-activating active frequencies, or by setting-up functions like CALSafe
or Strike
Alert.
RD Manager is compatible with PCs running Microsoft Windows 64 bit operating system.
