Description

The Fault Mapper Pro™ is a hand-held graphical TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer)
designed for identifying and locating faults on power and communication cables, given
access to one end only.
The Fault Mapper Pro™ measures cable length, and indicate the distance to cable faults, to
a range of 11700 ft (3500m), on virtually any type of cable.
The Fault Mapper Pro™ shows a reflection profile of the cable under test as an oscillos-
cope-like trace on a 128 x 64 pixel Graphical LCD. A movable cursor can be aligned with
faults and the distances read off.
The Fault Mapper Pro™ has a selectable impedance facility allowing it to be matched to the
cable under test. This automatically eliminates the transmission pulse from the display,
enabling easier identification of short range faults.
The Velocity of Propagation (Vp) is adjustable between 1% and 99% enabling accurate
calibration to the cable under test.
The Fault Mapper Pro™ incorporates an oscillating tone tracer, that is detectable with a
standard tone tracer, for use in the tracing and identification of cable pairs.
The unit also displays a "Voltage Detected" warning and sounds an alarm when connected
to a cable energized by more than 10V, which prohibits testing.
