2. Коопсуздук маалыматы
Жабдуулардын бузулушун жана жаракат алышын алдын алуу үчүн ар дайым төмөнкү коопсуздук чараларын сактаңыз:
- Аппаратты колдонуудан мурун бардык нускамаларды окуп, түшүнүңүз.
- Эгерде түзмөк бузулгандай көрүнсө же туура эмес иштеп жатса, аны колдонбоңуз.
- Always disconnect power to circuits before connecting the transmitter to de-energized wires.
- Электр системалары менен иштөөдө тиешелүү жеке коргонуу шаймандарын (ЖКК) кийиңиз.
- Ensure proper battery installation and replacement as specified.
- Аппаратты суудан жана экстремалдык температурадан алыс кармаңыз.
3. Орнотуу
3.1 Батареяны орнотуу
The 508S-G requires two 9V batteries for operation (one for the Transmitter and one for the Receiver). To install or replace batteries:
- Locate the battery compartment on the back of both the 508ST Transmitter and 508SR Receiver.
- Бөлүмдүн капкагын ачыңыз.
- Туура полярдуулукту камсыз кылуу менен жаңы 9V батарейканы салыңыз.
- Бөлүмдүн капкагын бекем жабыңыз.
- Use the 'BATTERY TEST' function on the Transmitter to verify battery strength.
3.2 Connecting the Transmitter (508ST)
The 508ST Transmitter injects a signal into the wire to be traced. Proper connection is crucial for accurate results.
For De-energized Wires:
- Ensure the circuit is completely de-energized кандайдыр бир байланыштарды түзүү алдында.
- Connect the red alligator clip lead from the transmitter to the wire you wish to trace.
- Connect the black alligator clip lead to a known good ground source (e.g., a ground rod, cold water pipe, or neutral wire).
- Set the transmitter switch to the 'HIGH' position.
For Energized Wires (up to 120 VAC):
- Use the AC adapter plug provided.
- Plug the AC adapter into a live 120 VAC outlet that is connected to the wire you want to trace.
- Set the transmitter switch to the 'HIGH' position.
4. Операция
4.1 Using the Receiver (508SR)
The 508SR Receiver detects the signal emitted by the transmitter. It features a thumbwheel switch for turning the unit on and adjusting the receiver gain (sensitivity).
- Turn on the 508SR Receiver using the thumbwheel switch.
- Adjust the gain to a suitable level. Start with a lower setting and increase as needed.
- Hold the receiver with the tracking antenna pointed towards the suspected path of the wire.
- Listen for the audible tone and observe the visual indicator (if present) to identify the signal strength. The strongest signal indicates the wire's location.
4.2 Tracing Wires Underground
When tracing wires underground, walk slowly along the suspected path, sweeping the receiver's antenna from side to side. The signal will be strongest directly over the wire.
4.3 Locating Wires in Walls, Floors, and Ceilings
For indoor applications, move the receiver along the surface where the wire is suspected. The signal will peak when the antenna is directly over the wire. The 508S-G can also help locate specific circuit breakers by connecting the transmitter to the circuit and then using the receiver at the breaker panel.
4.4 Determining Wire Depth
The 508S-G can help estimate the approximate depth of a buried wire. Once the wire's path is identified, hold the receiver at a 45-degree angle to the ground, directly over the wire. The distance from the ground to the receiver when the signal is strongest at this angle can provide an indication of the wire's depth.
5. Техникалык тейлөө
- Тазалоо: Бирдиктерди жарнама менен сүртүңүзamp кездеме. Абразивдүү тазалагычтарды же эриткичтерди колдонбоңуз.
- Сактагыч: Store the 508S-G in its rugged carrying case in a cool, dry place when not in use.
- Батареяны алмаштыруу: Replace batteries promptly when the low battery indicator appears or when performance degrades. Always use fresh 9V alkaline batteries.
- Автоматтык түрдө өчүрүү: The receiver is equipped with an automatic shut-off feature to conserve battery life.
6. Кыйынчылыктарды
| Көйгөй | Мүмкүн себеп | Чечим |
|---|---|---|
| Сигнал жок же начар сигнал | Low batteries; Improper transmitter connection; Wire too deep or too long; High interference. | Replace batteries; Verify transmitter connections (ensure good ground); Adjust receiver gain; Reduce interference sources. |
| Inaccurate tracing | High interference from other cables/metal; Receiver gain too high; Incorrect tracing technique. | Lower receiver gain; Move away from other metallic objects; Sweep antenna slowly and methodically; Ensure proper grounding of transmitter. |
| Transmitter not powering on | Dead battery; Faulty connection. | Replace battery; Check all connections. |
