FEATURES

? The Amplifier Probe is designed to identify and trace wires or cables within a group without

damaging the insulation.

? Works with any Tone Generator to identify wires.

? Volume control for increased sensitivity and adjustable to suit work environment.

? Recessed ON/OFF button prevents battery drain.

? Power supply is in any 9V battery with a life of approximately 100 hours.

? A plug receptacle is provided for head set or head phone.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Connecting the tone generator.

In terminated working cables:

Connect one test lead to a terminated wire and the other test lead to earth or equipment

ground.(See figure 2)

In unterminated or non-working cables:

Connect one test lead to an unterminated wire and the other test lead to another unterminated

wire.

2. Depress the round on/off spring-loaded button of the amplifier probe. The volume control switch

can be adjusted to suit the environment. Volume can be increased to overcome noise, or

decreased to reduce interference.

3. Touch the tip of the amplifier probe to the insulation of each suspect conductor.

4. Reception of tone will be loudest on the subject wire.

5. The plug receptacle is provided for connecting to a head set or hand set.
