| The AccuTrace Cable Route Tracer consists
of a transmitter, which energizes the line with a traceable signal,
and a portable receiver, which detects the signal. The transmitter
can energize the line either by magnetic induction from a built-in
antenna or by direct conductive connection to the metallic line.
Energizing the line conductively provides increased tracing distance
and minimizes signal coupling to other lines. Inductive coupling,
which does not require a mechanical connection to the line, permits
a buried line to be traced without uncovering or de-energizing
it.
The transmitter provides a simple LO/HI pushbutton to adjust
the transmitted signal's strength, and a PULSE button for battery
conservation and easy identification of the signal.
The receiver can be used to trace lines using either peaks (detection
of the maximum signal) or nulls (detection of the minimum, or
zero, signal).
The antenna is swivel-mounted for operation in vertical, horizontal
or 45 mode used to calculate depth. The receiver provides audible
and visual indication of detected signal strength. Simple controls
adjust sensitivity and amplification, and a jack provides for
audio output to an optional headset.
Standard AA batteries provide up to30 hours of continuous operation.
When the receiver is not in use, the telescoping handle retracts
for convenient, compact storage |
