3. MAIN APPLICATIONS – LOCATING BREAKERS/FUSES
Setting up the AT-6010-TE Transmitter
1. Press the ON/OFF key to turn on the Transmitter.
2. Verify that the test leads are properly connected - the red LED voltage status light should be
on for circuits with voltage above 30V AC/DC, and it should be off for De-energized circuits.
3. HIGH signal mode is automatically activated when Transmitter is turned on.
Using the AT-6010-RE Receiver
1. Turn the Receiver on. Tracing mode is automatically activated.
2. Align the groove on the Tip Sensor with the breaker/fuse lengthwise (See Figure 3.2c).
3. Scan all breakers/fuses in any order to find a breaker/fuse with the highest signal. Adjust
sensitivity by pressing + or - on the keypad to show the signal strength near 50 for the
breaker/fuse with the highest signal. After any sensitivity adjustment rescan all breakers/
fuses to find the one with the highest signal level.
Important note: Differentiation in breaker/fuse designs, height, internal contact structure may
affect precision of breaker/fuse identification. For most reliable results, remove the breaker/fuse
panel cover and perform scan on the wires instead of breakers/fuses.
Scan the breakers/fuses always at the same position and alignment of the tip sensor. A variation
may affect improper results.
Depending on the detected signal, the Receiver automatically switches to either Energized
De-energized
mode, and displays this information on the LCD.
