PAIR TRACING
...................................................................
Pair tracing with an oscillator and probe is the
quickest way to identify cable pairs. Just connect
a signal to the line and search for it at the distant
location with a PTS100 probe.

OPERATION
...................................................................
Apply a tracing oscillator to the origin of the pair
to be traced. Although most oscillators will work
with PTS100, either PTS200 (warble tone) or
PTS209 (beep tone) are suitable for use with
PTS100.
Check that a tone is being emitted before going
to the far end. (A shorted pair will not emit a
signal). Search initially with the gain set high -
rotate the sensitivity control towards "Far". This
setting is used when trying to find a signal from a
distance or when the signal is weak. Move the
probe towards the strongest signal. Reduce the
gain setting (towards NEAR) if the signal fails to
vary as the probe is moved around. The
strongest signal will be received when the
insulation is contacted or it will be stronger still if
direct copper contact is made.
VERIFYING CABLE PAIRS
...................................................................
The are two ways to ensure that the right pair has
been traced.
l
Open the pair into a V and place the probe
tip near the centre. A null or zero will be
found at or near the centre on the correct
pair. If the signal will not zero the pair is
split. If the signal nulls way over to one side
the pair is unbalanced and faulty - this
could be one wire high resistance, open
circuit or grounded.
l
It is also possible to verify the pair by
shorting the target cable pair. If correctly
traced the signal will be eliminated by this
action. If not then the pair may again be
split or faulty.
OPERATING RANGE
...................................................................
It will be possible to trace the signal at about
10km (7 miles) from the oscillator depending on
the local ambient noise at the receiving end.
(Further is often possible).
BATTERIES
...................................................................
When the battery is nearly discharged the output
from the loudspeaker will become quiet and
distorted. To change the battery just slide open
the hatch cover and insert a new standard 9 volt
battery. Use either Alkaline or Lithium Batteries.
REPAIR
...................................................................
For maximum strength and long life PTS100
case is permanently sealed.
