Instruction for Keys and Ports

Main features

1. Detection & tracking break- point of underground and wall-through wires.
2. Suitable for 2.6 feet in depth and 1640 feet in length.
3. Applicable to pet fence, irrigation cable, construction site.
4. LED light and earphone.

How to use

1. Push the transmitter switch to “Cable Scan” and turn the dial switch to High Tone.
2. Connect one of the transmitter’s alligator clips to the cable, and connect the other one to an independent ground using a grounding stake or screwdriver, orto an independent ground using a grounding conductor of an unshielded lead-in wire. ml
3. Swing the receiver antenna close to the ground and about 10-15 feet away from the transmitter position. (You will hear tones on either side of the path, with a null directly over the path)
4. Proceed along the path in the zero direction and adjust the transmitter and receiver for longer distances.
5. Once the path is determined, mark the ground at the zero point on the path.
6. Angle the receiver antenna 45 degrees from the ground and move away from the wire path at a right angle until another null point is found. Mark this point. (Fig.01)
7. The distance between the two marks is the approximate depth of the wire.

Note:

For single-core or double-core wire:

Red alligator clips is the signal line, Black alligator clips is used to connect the ground or neutral line or unloaded.

For shielded wire and multi-stranded wire:

• A: Unable to determine break-point due to signal interference, but line direction can be tested.
• B: If it is the direction of the shielded wire detection line, the red clip should grip the shielding layer.

How to properly install the battery?(Only for NF-817)

You need to organize the battery line and put them on the front of the battery, PLEASE DO NOT put the battery line on top.

How to find the wire locates?

Turn on the receiver and swing it back and forth. You will hear the sound “bi bi bi”; When approaching the breakpoint, the tone will weaken and then disappear. If the tone disappears. It means the breakpoint is at this location.

External Earphones
