PAIR TRACING
Connect the Tone Generator to the pair to be traced. Check that the tone is being sent before leaving the oscillator. PTS100 Probe
detects the electrostatic eld around the wire pair and outputs it to the integral speaker after ltering to reduce mains interference.
In most circumstances the low sensitivity setting will work well but if the signal is weak or noisy then choosing the higher
sensitivity setting may help.
Placing the probe alongside the pair gives a strong signal except where the wires cross.
Here there should be a noticeable null. Move the probe back and forth along the wire to conrm this.
Placing the tip in the centre of an opened twist of the pair should
give a minimum signal. If it does not decrease, suspect a split pair
(two wires from different pairs) or a faulty pair one wire broken or
high resistance.
Shorting the pair should cause the signal to completely disappear
or fall to a very low level. This veries that you have the right pair.
