To Trace a Tone
> Connect the Tone Generator to the RJ11 Alligator Clip, then place the
Alligator Clip on the cable to be traced
> Select one of the tones of choice, the green LED will indicate the
power-on mode
> Press and hold the black button on the Amplified Probe to turn on the
probe.
> Adjust volume control to a comfortable level. If the signal is very
loud when near the cable, the volume may need to be reduced to keep from
overloading the TRACETone™. When overloaded, small increases or
decreases in the signal at the tip cannot be heard.
> Hold the tip of the TRACETone™ near cable to be identified. The signal
will be loudest on the wire or cable the generator is attached to.
Separating the wires or cables may help in isolating the correct cable.

Probe with a #1 Phillipshead screwdriver and remove battery door.

with plus symbol on case.
