Tracing Live Circuits and Locating Circuit Breakers:

1) Plug the transmitter into the receptacle. Push the power button and green LEDs will flash three times. This is the battery check. The unit will then flash the LED that indicates the type of line you are connected to and send the appropriate signal on the line.

2) Push the receiver high range button. The unit will beep twice and the green power LED above the button will glow. The receiver will indicate a signal if within sensing range.

3) Move the receiver within a few inches of the transmitter. All five LEDs should flash and the unit will emit a beeping sound.

4) Take the receiver to the vicinity of the circuit breaker panel and press the high range button. If a signal is received, move the receiver toward the panel producing an increase in signal strength. Check all panels without resetting the receiver to find the strongest signal. This is the panel containing the breaker feeding the transmitter.

5) Open the panel door, push the low range button, and move the receiver over all the breakers. Next, move the receiver down the row of breakers until the LEDs flash. The breaker or fuse containing the strongest signal is the receptacle or device to which the transmitter is connected.
