oIf the CONT indicator [8] does not light, one or both of the
wires are broken, or the wrong wires were connected or short
circuited.
Caution: Make sure the pair of wires under test is not in contact
with any other electrified or earthed object, as this may cause an
incorrect result.
4.2 Cable Detection / Test
Use both the tone generator and the cable tracker to verify where a
cable is going, if it is interrupted or not and where the interruption is
located.
1. Set the tone generator's mode switch [9] to TONE.
The TONE indicator [8] starts flashing.
2. At one end of the cable / wires to be tested, connect the red clip
to any wire or one specific wire you want to test. Connect the
black clip to the ground wire or, if you cannot find it, one of the
other wires.
3. Use the volume control [2] on the side of the cable tracker to
control the volume.
4. Use the probe tip [1] of the cable tracker as follows:
oIf you do not know where the cable is going or if there are
several similar cables, you can detect the correct one with the
probe. Hold the probe to the suspected wire and press the
trace button. The signal is the loudest at the correct wire.
oIf you do know where the cable is going, the probe allows you
to verify immediately at the other end whether or not the
cable is interrupted. Hold the probe to the end of the wire and
press the trace button. If no signal is obtained, the test wire
is probably interrupted.
oPress and hold the trace button [3] and follow the cable to
where the signal stops: the signal wire is interrupted at that
point.
Remarks:
•The best test results are obtained when the black clip is connected
to a separate ground wire.
•The probe is very sensitive: as it gets nearer the signal wire, the
tone gets louder.
•Electric fields may interfere with the detection of the signal wire.

4.3 RJ12 Phone Connector Test
The tone generator can be used to determine the polarity of a phone
line, and the status of a working line.
1. Set the tone generator's mode switch [9] to OFF.
2. Insert the phone line connector [7] in the phone socket and
connect the red and black connectors [6] to the wires to be
connected. The CONT indicator [8] lights.
oGreen means the polarity is correct (black is "+" (tip) and red
is "–" (ring)).
oRed means the polarity is inversed (black is "–" (ring) and red
is "+" (tip)).
oIf the LED does not light up, either the connections are not
established correctly or the socket is not connected.
3. To test the status of a telephone line, first connect the red
connector to the "–" (ring) side and the black connector to the
"+" (tip) side. The CONT indicator [8] lights.
oGreen indicates a clear line.
oFlickering yellow means there is an incoming phone call (ring
signal).
Note: In this case, set the mode switch to CONT to terminate
the call on the line.
oIf the LED does not light up, the line is busy.
4.4 Selecting the Tone
Select the tone you want to hear (single or dual tone) with the audio
signal switch at the inside of the tone generator.
1. Open the battery compartment and remove the battery.
2. Unscrew the screw in the battery compartment and the four
screws in the back cover.
3. Carefully remove the back cover and lift the PCB.
The audio signal switch is located at the left side of the PCB
(component side up, battery connectors at the bottom).
4. Set the switch in the desired position.
5. Replace the PCB carefully and put the cover back.
Caution: Make sure that no wires are crimped and that the
mode switch is in position. The indicator LEDs should fit easily
through the holes. Do not force.
6. Fix the back cover with the 5 screws.
7. Replace the battery and close the cover.
