Instructions for Use

To Trace a Tone

1)Connect the Tone Generator to the RJ11 Alligator Clip, then place the Alligator Clip on the cable to be traced

2)Select one of the tones of choice, the green LED will indicate the power-on mode

3)Press and hold the black button on the Amplified Probe to turn on the probe.

4)Adjust volume control to a comfortable level. If the signal is very loud when near the cable, the volume may need to be reduced to keep from overloading the TRACETone™. When overloaded, small increases or decreases in the signal at the tip cannot be heard.

5)Hold the tip of the TRACETone™ near cable to be identified. The signal will be loudest on the wire or cable the generator is attached to. Separating the wires or cables may help in isolating the correct cable.
