How it Works:
The transmitter contains output cables terminated in modular RJ11 phone connector and test leads. The transmitter injects a traceable signal into cables, lets you checks telephone lines, and also performs continuity checks.
The non-contact probe (or tracer) can be placed near wires and audibly identifies the selected wire or cable with a distinctive tone. The adjustable sensitivity control (gain dial) makes it easier to identify the exact wire and helps eliminate false IDs.
The built-in continuity tester with LED indicator helps you get more done without an additional tester.
