Continuity Test - Klein Tools VDV500-820E Manuel D'instructions

ENGLISH
To ensure safe operations and service of the instruments, follow these instructions. Failure to observe
these warnings can result in fi re, electric shock, severe injury or death.
The Toner-Pro and Probe-Pro are designed for use on extra-low voltage cabling systems (less than 60
•
volts) for testing when NOT energised.
The maximum voltage across ABN Test Clips of the Toner-Pro is 60 volts in Test mode, and 20 volts in
•
Continuity mode. Connecting the Probe-Pro to live mains AC power may damage it and pose a safety
hazard for the user.
DO NOT use instruments if they are wet, as it could pose a shock hazard.
•
DO NOT use instruments if they are damaged in any way.
•
Turn off instruments and disconnect all ABN Test Clips before attempting to replace batteries.
•
The battery door must be in place and secure before you operate the instrument.
•
DO NOT open the case, other than the battery compartment.

CONTINUITY TEST

The Toner-Pro transmits frequencies on non-energised wires only. When the Toner-Pro is turned on, a
continuity test will be performed to determine if the 2 wires to be traced are in close proximity to each other,
without a conductive path between them. The 'CONT' Indicator

illuminated green, a tone can be generated and you may proceed.
SELECTING TONE FREQUENCY
The Toner-Pro defaults to the 800 Hz frequency setting when powered on. Use the Tone Mode Up
Tone Mode Down selector buttons to change the frequency. The Tone Frequency Indicators
T7
display the frequency being transmitted. If an alternating tone is selected, the two respective Tone Frequency
Indicators will blink. Tones will cycle through the available frequencies in a continuous loop when a selector
T6
button is pressed repeatedly.

2. Turn Toner-Pro on by pressing the Power On/Off button
3. Check the 'CONT' Indicator
4. Select the preferred tone setting using the Tone Mode Up
5. Turn the Probe-Pro on by pressing the Power On/Off button
6. At the far end of the cable, spread the wires apart at least 2" (51 mm), if possible.
7. Use the Probe-Pro to scan the cable's wire pairs. Move the Probe-Pro's tip
The Probe-Pro's volume will increase as it approaches the toned pair. When the Probe-Pro's volume is high over
the first wire, low in the middle (between) the two wires, and high over the second wire, you have located the pair
of wires you are tracing. Use the Volume Increase
