Safety Information Warning IP200 IntelliTone Pro Probe IP200 Probe with 9 V battery Quick Reference Guide To prevent possible fire, electric shock, or personal injury: Never use the toner, probe, or test leads if they are damaged. Inspect the cases and test leads for damage before use. Never open the case except to change the battery; no user-serviceable parts are inside. Warning: Risk of personal injury. See explanations in the manual.
IntelliTone Pro Users Manual Battery Status LEDs on the toner and probe light for 1 second at power on to indicate the battery status: Toner battery status LED Probe battery status LED Green: Battery is good. Yellow: Battery is marginal. Red: Battery is low. See “Battery Life and Replacement” on page 16 for more information on the battery. Auto Power Down The toner turns off automatically after approximately 2 ½ hours of inactivity. The probe turns off automatically after 1 hour of inactivity.
Locating and Isolating Terminated UTP/STP Cables with the IntelliTone In locating mode, the probe’s LEDs light up from 1 to 8 as the signal strength increases. The higher the number, the stronger the signal. Note If you cannot locate the IntelliTone signal on 2conductor cables, the cable may be shorted. Use the cable map test (page 8) to test for shorts on cables with RJ11 and RJ45 connectors. Use the continuity test (page 12) to check for shorts on coax and non-terminated cables.

Isolating Individual Wire Pairs with the SmartTone Analog Function Isolating Individual Wire Pairs with the SmartTone Analog Function The position on the IntelliTone probe and toner lets you use the probe to trace using an analog 1kHz tone. SmartTone is intended for use on dry pairs of wires that are un-terminated at both ends of the run. It is not intended to be used on live wires with a DC power source (e.g., live telephone lines), nor will it work on wire pairs that are carrying AC signals.
IntelliTone Pro Users Manual Validating RJ11 and RJ45 Cable Maps You can use the IT200 toner and IP200 probe to validate the cable map on RJ11 and RJ45 connectors. The cable map function finds the most common wiring faults on twisted pair cabling: shorts, opens, and crossed pairs. 1 Connect an IT200 toner to a RJ11 or RJ45 jack, as shown in Figure 2. 2 Turn the toner’s rotary switch to .

IntelliTone Pro Users Manual Validating the Cable’s Shield The SYNC LED will now indicate a good, open, or shorted shield as described in the previous section. To use the probe’s SYNC LED for shield validation during cable map tests, do the following: To disable shield validation via the probe’s SYNC LED, do the following: 1 Remove the battery door and disconnect the battery from the probe, as described under “Battery Life and Replacement” on page 13.
Validating Ethernet Service Validating Ethernet Service Punch-down block The toner detects link pulses for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T Ethernet service on pins 1, 2 and 3, 6 of its RJ45 jack. 1 Turn off the toner. 2 Connect the toner to the circuit as shown in Figure 3. 3 Turn the toner’s rotary switch to SERVICE. 4 The Ethernet LED indicates service on pins 1, 2 or 3, 6 as shown in Figure 3.
IntelliTone Pro Users Manual Testing for Continuity You can use the toner to test circuits and components for continuity. 1 If you are testing a circuit, verify that it is not powered. Use the toner’s continuity function to check for continuity. Use a voltage meter to check other types of circuits for power. 2 Turn off the toner. 3 Connect the toner to the circuit or component as shown in Figure 4. .
Maintenance Maintenance Warning Clean the case with a soft cloth dampened with water or a mild soap solution. Caution To avoid damaging the case, do not use solvents or abrasive cleansers.
