3. Probe the suspected wires with the amplifier probe.
Reception of tone will be strongest on the subject
wire. In case of ready access to bare conductors, a
handset or headphone may be used to receive the
tone.
● TESTING CONTINUITY (SWITCH TO "CONT")
CAUTION:DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY ACTIVE AC
OR DC CIRCUIT IN THIS MODE.
1. Connect the test leads to the subject pair.
2. Use "cont" position.
3. A bright "GREEN" light indicates continuity. The LED
will not glow if the line resistance exceeds 12kΩ.
● TESTING CONTINUITY USING TONE
(SWITCH TO "TONE")
CAUTION:DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY ACTIVE AC
OR DC CIRCUIT IN THIS MODE.
1. Connect the test leads to the subject pair.
2. Use a handset or headset at the remote end and
touch the wire end(s) with the clip lead(s).
3. Reception of tone is an indication of continuity.
● MODULAR TESTING
1. All above tests are available through the modular
plug for line 1 only - red and green wires.
● COAX TESTING
1. To test unterminated coax, connect red to outer
shield and black to center conductor or red to outer
shield and black to ground.
2. To test terminated coax, connect red to connector
housing and black to center pin or red to connector
housing and black to ground.
