1. DESCRIPTION

The Model 501 Tracker II is designed to locate the path and depth of buried
cable, service wires, metallic pipe or conduit and locate the end of a cut cable.
A. Transmitter
The transmitter is housed in an aluminum case and is powered by eight (8)
1.5V AAbatteries. The transmitter has an on/off control knob which is also used
to adjust the output level and a light emitting diode (LED) indicating the battery
condition. In addition, the transmitter has an automatic shut-off feature after
1.5 hours of non-use. Effective range is greater than 4,000 feet in length and
for depths up to 7 feet.
B. Receiver
The receiver is encased in an aluminum housing, mounted with an antenna
and is powered by one (1) 9V battery. Like the transmitter, the receiver will
automatically shut itself off after 1.5 hours of non-use. The receiver has a
speaker for listening to the signal, a meter for monitoring the signal level, a
headset jack, an on/off volume control knob and an antenna for detecting the
tone over the cable.
C. Carrying Case with Inductive Antenna
The case is used for storing and transporting the Tracker II system and is
constructed of vacuum formed polyethylene. The case also includes an easy,
quick reference operation guide on the inside of the lid.
D. Cord Set
An 8 foot pair of leads with plugs and clips is included for connecting the
transmitter to the cable or pipe.
E. Inductive Coupler
The Inductive Coupler induces a tracing tone on a cable, wire or pipe by
clamping around it.
