User questions & answers

Question:	Is it easy for a beginner to use? Does it easily hook up to the wire or do I need to cut into the plastic surrounding the wire
Answer:	It's easy to connect and you don't need to cut into the insulator, but the problem I had with the tool is: the signal is so sensitive that I wasn't able to tell if the wire was cut, because all the wires I was testing were in a harness
Question:	How many feet will this work for
Answer:	i was using it very successfully at over 70 feet. The lines I was tracing were up and over in a building. So i really do not know the exact distance. but it worked great
Question:	If I have both ends of a house wire exposed, how would I hook up to check if I have the correct wire
Answer:	You connect the transmitter to a pair of wires in the room, either raw ends or in an RJ11 telephone jack. Turn it on. Turn on the probe and check that the toner is working. Go go to NID, where all the house wiring starts. The tone can be hear is you are near the wire, louder on the outside of the cable, very loud when actually touch the correct pair of wires.
Question:	Do you have to use the transmitter or can it locate passive cables behind a wall without it
Answer:	You can locate 60Hz lines behind a wall to some extent, without the transmitter: The probe will make a louder 120Hz buzzing noise as it is moved closer to cables.

User questions & answers

Question:	will it work on a dead motor
Answer:	First you need to determine why the motor died. Is the electrical service supplying the correct voltage. A meg-ohm meter will tell if it is an electrical issue in the motor or not. Does the rotor spin freely?
Question:	Will this work on 4/0 wire
Answer:	Yes I personally used it on 750MCM which is 5 times the diameter of 4/0. This is a great phase rotation meter.
Question:	i see the max voltage is listed for 600v will it survive 690 +/- 4% are the leads 1kv rated? i understand that it wont last as long on
Answer:	Yes you got to be quick when measuring it.
Question:	Will this work on the output of a VFD
Answer:	It should as long as the VFD is running (being commanded to go a direction at 50-60 HZ)
Question:	haw many output channels
Answer:	This DC Power Supply has 3 Output channels - a 5V, 12V and a variable 0-30V (3A).
Question:	How many simultaneous output does it have Since there is only one output pin ( + and
Answer:	There is a terminal connection for the 5VDC (+,-) and 12VDC (+,-) and an adjustable voltage output (0-30VDC at 3A.
Question:	If your running less than 30 volts can you send more than the 3 amps
Answer:	It offers three choices of power output: adjustable 0-30-volt, 0-3-amp, plus fixed 5- and 12-volt.
Question:	whe and where do you connected the 3 three simultaneous outputs
Answer:	The three outputs are located on the front panel labeled as 5V, 12V, and to the right side of the panel is the variable voltage output (up to 30V at 3A).
