RJ45 Adapter Cable
Low Voltage Alarm
Adjust the DIP switch on the emitter to “Scan” position, if the
battery level is lower than 6V, “Status” and “Verify” indicators will
light up simultaneously. The battery needs to be switched out to
a new 9V battery.
Spotlight
Convenient in dark settings. The spotlight on/off toggle switch is
located on the probe next to the volume dial.
Automatic Power Down
Unit will automatically power down after brief inactivity to save
battery life. Battery lifespan ~50 hours.
Accessories
Earphones
Use earphones in noisy settings to
prevent outside interference for precise
tracking and testing. Earphone jack is
located on the side of the probe next to
the volume dial.
Earphone 9V Battery
Volume Adjustment
The volume can be adjusted for tracing
cables. Volume dial is located on the
side of the probe in between the ear-
phone jack and the spotlight toggle.

Other Functions
Open Circuit or Short Circuit Testing
Adjust the DIP switch on the emitter to “Test” position, then
press the function switch on the emitter for 2 seconds, the
“Verify” indicator will go from flashing to solid. Connect the
crocodile clamp to the RJ11 port, clamp the two ends of the
cable with crocodile clamps, in case of a short circuit. Indicator
light “1” on the emitter will light up. Impedance can be identified
by the brightness of the light. The dimmer the light is, the lower
the resistance. The darker the light is, the greater the
resistance.
DC Level Testing
Adjust the DIP switch on the emitter to “Scan” position, then
press the function switch on the emitter for 2 seconds, the
“Status” indicator will turn off and the “Verify” indicator will flash.
Connect the crocodile clamp to the RJ11 port, clamp the two
ends of the cable with crocodile clamps. If the “Status” indicator
light turns red, then this classifies the positive pole is from the
red clamp. If the “Status” indicator light turns green, then this
classifies the negative pole is with the red clamp. Electrical
level can be identified by the brightness of the light. The dim-
mer the light is, the higher the level is. The darker the light is,
the lower the level is.

Telephone Cable Tracing Function
1. Directly insert telephone wire with RJ11 plug into RJ11 port of
emitter (Note: Do NOT put live telephone cable into RJ45 port, doing
so ma result in burning of testing device.)
2. Push DIP switch on emitter to “SCAN” position. Wire locator
indicator “STATUS” will flash, which indicates normal operation of
emitter.
3. While using the probe, press the inching button on receiver to find
target wire.
4. During testing, to switch testing over to dual-tone, press “Switch”
button.

Network Wire Collation Function
1. Insert the two ends of a networking cable into the RJ45 ports of
the emitter and receiver.
2. Push function switch button on emitter to the position of “TEST”,
testing indicator “VERIFY” will flash which indicates that the emitter
is working properly.
3. Short circuit, breaking circuit, open circuit or wires crossing
indicated on device.
4. During testing, pressing on the Switch button will toggle between
fast and slow levels.
Supports direct wire collation
of operating switch
uickly test open circuit/short circuit
and wire crossing through status
indicators.
Replace standard
cable testers
Note: The equipment is prohibited to be used on heavy-current wires.
Electrical Wire Tracing Function
1. Directly insert RJ11 of crocodile clip into RJ11 port of emitter,
connect telephone line with the clamp.
2. Push DIP switch on emitter to “SCAN” position. Wire locator
indicator “STATUS” will flash, which indicates normal operation of
emitter.
3. While using the probe, press the inching button on receiver to find
target wire.
4. During testing, to switch testing over to dual-tone, press “Switch”
button.
Connect emitter with
telephone line to be located No need for electrical drill.
uickly find or trace the correct wire among many with-
out the trouble of a multimeter.
