Transmitter Callout Features
1. Output Jacks
Non-polarized, standard banana plug type.
2. Power Indicator
When the transmitter is On, the
indicating that a signal is being produced.
3. Line Energized Indicator
The transmitter continuously monitors the voltage
across its output terminals. If greater than 30 volts
AC or 40 volts DC is present, the LED indicator
illuminates. The transmitter also communicates the
line voltage state to the receiver.
4. Low Battery Indicator
When the batteries approach the 10% discharge
point, the
LED lights. Once the batteries
are depleted, the LED flashes. At this point, the
batteries are fully exhausted, and the unit forces
power down.
5. Power Button
Depress the
the transmit function. Depress again to conserve battery
power when not in use.
6. Operating Voltage Range
Operates on energized/de-energized circuits from 0 to 600V AC/DC.
7. Battery Compartment
Holds (4) AA batteries.
8. Safety
Rated for use in Cat III-600V environments. Incorporates a high-energy, fast-acting
protection fuse.
Additional Notes
•
The transmitter's signal does not affect sensitive, electronic equipment on the circuit when
placed on the 120 volt supply.
•
In a closed circuit, because the transmitter generates a small test current, its signal can be
detected upstream through the feeder panel and the distribution transformer. The strength
of the signal is reduced as it passes through the transformer in inverse proportion to the
turns ratio of the transformer.
•
Can be used on GFCI protected circuits.
•
There is no auto off feature on the transmitter or receiver.
•
The transmitter is rated for 0 to 600 Volts AC 50 or 60 Hz or DC. It is not compatible with
non-sinusoidal or distorted waveforms as are found at the output of variable frequency
drives, dimmer switches or in the presence of harmonically distorted waveforms.
