Structure

The UT683KIT is an intelligent wire tracker for noiseless wire tracking. The RJ45 jack of the transmitter can enable tracking and flashing functions simultaneously to help you quickly and accurately locate the target cable.
The RJ11 jack can automatically identify open circuit, short circuit, polarity, ringing signal, and other states to help you quickly distinguish cable faults.
It is an ideal tool for integrated wiring and installation and maintenance of weak electricity systems.

Network Line Tracking

  1. Insert the RJ45 plug of the network line into the RJ45 jack of the transmitter.
  2. Press the button on the transmitter to enable the tracking function. In tracking mode, press the button to enable the flashing function simultaneously. If the target network line is connected to an active switch, router or network card, the PORT FLASH light of the transmitter will flash synchronously with the network port indicator.
  3. Press the  button on the receiver to start tracking. When beeps are heard, the target network line is found.

Telephone Line Tracking

  1. Insert the RJ11 plug of the telephone line into the RJ11 jack of the transmitter.
  2. Press the  button on the transmitter to enable the tracking function.
  3. 4. Press the  button on the receiver to start tracking. When beeps are heard,the target telephone line is found.

Power Cable Tracking

  1. Use the RJ11 alligator clip adapter cable to connect the transmitter and metal cable being tracked.
  2. Press the button on the transmitter to enable the tracking function.
  3. Press the button on the receiver to start tracking. When beeps are heard, the target cable is found.

Demonstration of Tracking Operation

If the target cable are intermixed with massive cables, turn the sensitivity knob to adjust the sensitivity. Louder sound means stronger signal and closer to the target cable.

RJ45 Cable Validating

  1. Insert the RJ45 plugs of the cable under test into the RJ45 jacks of the transmitter and receiver.
  2. Press the button, the button flashes, and the validating function is enabled.
  3. Judge the state of the cable (good wiring, short circuit, open circuit, miswire) according to the line sequence indicators on the transmitter and receiver.
  4. During test, press the button to switch between fast and slow mode.
  5. The diagram below shows the wiring of different states (good wiring, short circuit, open circuit, miswire) for unshielded cables.
    • Good wiring: LEDs (1~8) on the transmitter and receiver light up in turn.
    • Short circuit: No.3 and No.4 LEDs on the receiver light up simultaneously with dim brightness.
    • Open circuit: No.3 LED of the transmitter and receiver do not light up.
    • Miswire: LEDs of the transmitter and receiver do not light up correspondingly.

RJ11 Cable Validating

  1. Insert the RJ11 plug of the cable under test into the RJ11 jack of the transmitter, or use the RJ11 alligator clip adapter cable to connect the transmitter and metal cable under test.
  2. Press the button, the button flashes, and the validating function is enabled.
  3. The CONT indicator lights up green to indicate open circuit of the cable, and red to indicate short circuit of the cable. The POLARITY indicator lights up green to indicate that the cable has a positive polarity voltage, red to indicate that the cable has a reverse polarity voltage, and green and red flash alternately to indicate a ringing signal or AC power on the cable.

Other Functions

  1. NCV Function
    Press the NCV button to enable the NCV function. When the target cable or socket has an AC voltage over 40V, the receiver will beep and the NCV indicator will flash synchronously.

  2. Flashlight
    Press the button to turn on/off the flashlight of the receiver.

  3. Low Battery Indication

  4. When the battery voltage ≤3.4V, the power button will flash.

  5. When the battery voltage 3.0V, the device will automatically shut down and need to be charged.

  6. Earphones
    In noisy environments, users can wear earphones during operation (earphones need to be prepared by users). Volume can be adjusted by turning the sensitivity knob.
