RECEIVER ORIENTATION
The orientation of the Receiver in relation to the wire being traced is very
important. The vertical Crosshair Groove
indicates the preferred direction of the wire for the strongest signal
detection. While tracing a wire, rotate the Receiver to always ensure the
highest signal value is displayed. The signal may not be detected if the
Receiver tip is not properly aligned to the wire. If the signal drops, the wire
may have changed direction (horizontal to vertical or vertical to horizontal).
Whenever possible, keep the Receiver at least 3' (0.9 m) away from the
Transmitter and test leads to reduce signal interference.
APPLICATIONS
Circuit Breaker Finder (energized and de-energized)
1. Connect the Transmitter to the circuit to be identified using either the direct
ground or remote ground connection and power the Transmitter on. The
direct ground and remote ground connection methods can be used on both
energized and de-energized circuits, but an energized circuit produces a higher
signal strength.
2. Verify that the Energized Indicator on the Transmitter is illuminated if
connected to a circuit with voltage above 25V AC/DC and is not illuminated for
de-energized circuits.
3. Go to the electrical panel and power on the Receiver. If there is more than one
panel, touch the tip of the Receiver to each panel cover to identify the panel
with the highest signal level. Use the Increase Sensitivity
Sensitivity
5
panel with the highest reading.
4. Once the panel has been identified, open the cover.
5. Orient the Receiver facing left or right and perpendicular to the breakers (See
below). Slowly move the Receiver up and down in front of each breaker. Use
the Increase Sensitivity
buttons to adjust the Receiver sensitivity levels as
5
needed to locate the breaker with the highest reading.
After any sensitivity level changes, rescan all the
breakers to find the breaker with
the highest reading.
NOTE: Energized circuits typically use
sensitivity levels 1-3, and de-energized circuits may need
higher sensitivity levels 4-8.
NOTE: If two or more breakers have the same signal value,
remove the panel cover and place the tip of the Receiver on
the individual wires to help in determining the correct breaker.
NOTE: Ensure the wire is held in the proper orientation in
relation to the tip of the Receiver.
