The SASKATE Underground Cable Locator system consists of two main units: the Transmitter and the Receiver (Probe).

4.1. Đơn vị phát

The transmitter generates a signal that is sent through the cable to be traced. It features various modes for different testing scenarios.

Figure 4.1: Transmitter Unit. Features include OFF, CONT (Continuous), and TONE modes, along with an RJ11/RJ45 port and alligator clip connections.

4.2. Receiver (Probe) Unit

The receiver detects the signal emitted by the transmitter, allowing you to trace the cable's path and identify its location. It provides both audible and visual indications.

5. Thiết lập

5.1. Lắp đặt pin

Both the Transmitter and Receiver units require one 6F22 battery each (not included).

1. Tìm nắp ngăn chứa pin ở phía sau mỗi thiết bị.
2. Open the cover and insert one 6F22 battery, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
3. Đóng chặt nắp ngăn chứa pin.

5.2. Kết nối máy phát

Connect the transmitter to the cable you wish to trace using the appropriate connector accessory:

• For RJ11/RJ45 Cables: Plug the RJ11 or RJ45 connector directly into the corresponding port on the transmitter.
• For Bare Wires or Alligator Clip Connections: Use the provided connector accessory with alligator clips. Connect the red clip to one wire and the black clip to the other wire or ground, then plug the accessory into the transmitter's RJ11/RJ45 port.

5.3. Kết nối tai nghe

For noisy environments or discreet operation, plug the earphones into the 3.5mm earphone jack on the receiver unit.

6. Hướng dẫn vận hành

6.1. Bật / Tắt nguồn

• Máy phát: Select the desired mode (CONT or TONE) to power on. Select OFF to power off.
• Người nhận: Slide the ON/OFF switch to ON to power on. Slide to OFF to power off.

6.2. Selecting Transmitter Mode

• CONT (Liên tục): Generates a continuous tone (1000Hz nominal value). Useful for general cable tracing.
• TONE (Alternating): Generates an alternating tone (1000Hz/1500Hz nominal value). This mode can help differentiate the signal from background noise.

6.3. Using the Receiver (Probe)

1. Bật nguồn thiết bị thu.
2. Adjust the sensitivity switch to HIGH or LOW. Start with HIGH for initial tracing, then switch to LOW for more precise localization.
3. Move the tip of the receiver along the suspected path of the cable.
4. Listen for the audible tone from the speaker or earphones. The tone will be loudest when the receiver is directly over the cable.
5. Observe the LED indicators. Brighter LEDs indicate a stronger signal, confirming proximity to the cable.

6.4. Ứng dụng

• Line Searching: Connect the transmitter to one end of the cable. Use the receiver to follow the signal and locate the cable's path.
• Kiểm tra ngắn mạch: The device can help identify short circuits by changes in the signal. Consult the specific tone characteristics for short circuit indication.
• Clear, Busy, Ringing Recognition: When connected to telephone lines, the device can help identify line status (clear, busy, or ringing) through distinct tone patterns.

7. Bảo trì

7.1. Vệ sinh

Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the housing.

7.2. Thay thế pin

Replace batteries when the signal becomes weak or the device fails to power on. Always replace both batteries simultaneously for optimal performance. Remove batteries if the device will not be used for an extended period.

7.3. Lưu trữ

Bảo quản thiết bị trong túi đựng ở nơi khô ráo, thoáng mát, tránh ánh nắng trực tiếp và nhiệt độ quá cao hoặc quá thấp.

KHAI THÁC. Xử lý sự cố

• Không có tín hiệu/Tín hiệu yếu:
  • Kiểm tra mức pin của cả hai thiết bị và thay thế nếu cần.
  • Ensure all connections between the transmitter and the cable are secure.
  • Verify the transmitter is powered on and in the correct mode.
  • Adjust the receiver's sensitivity (try HIGH first).
  • Ensure the cable is not too deep or heavily shielded, which can attenuate the signal.
• Interference/False Readings:
  • Environmental factors (e.g., nearby electrical lines, metal objects) can cause interference. Try to move away from such sources.
  • Ensure the cable being traced is isolated from other active cables if possible.
