4 2. Introduction the triplett wiremaster mapper is an 8-way cable mapping kit, with built-in continuity beeper, and 120vac line cross protection. The main unit and the remotes allow the user to attach to a vari- ety of different cables or outlets. Included in the ‘mapper’ is a tone generator that a...

10 flash. If the battery test led does not flash, the battery should be replaced. If it is weak, it may produce erroneous results in the cable map mode. Verifying product operation after turning the product on, connect the provided bnc to bnc adaptor to the bnc on the wiremaster mapper. Experimental...

11 note: the wiremaster mapper does not test for reversed polarity dc voltages. If reversed polarity dc is present, the wiremaster mapper will not properly detect a remote. If you suspect reversed polarity dc voltage is present, use the bnc to clip lead adaptor to connect to the suspect wires, rever...

12 at the ends of the target cables opposite the remotes, connect the wiremaster mapper, in succession, to each cable, noting the id number of the led that lights. If upon connecting the wiremaster mapper to a cable, the open led remains lit, the cable may not have a remote at its opposite end, an o...

13 the wiremaster mapper is equipped with the necessary adaptors and remotes to test cables with bnc, f, and rj11/rj45 connec- tors. It also includes clip lead adapters to allow any pair of wires to be tested. Additionally, almost any off-the-shelf bnc adaptor can be used with the wiremaster mapper....

14 not necessarily through all of the ports. For distribution systems using fully power passive splitters, the wiremaster mapper will map individual remotes the splitters. Only one remote at a time can be mapped. Connecting more than one remote at a time to the system will cause an incorrect id on t...

To use this feature, the clip lead adaptor is of- ten used. Connect the clip lead adaptor cable to the bnc on the wiremaster mapper. When a cir...

16 the wiremaster mapper performs its id test using only the cen- ter two conductors of the rj connector. The open and short / continuity tests are only performed on these conductors. Other wires in the cable may have opens or shorts, and the wiremaster mapper will not detect them. Intermittent conn...

17 generating a wire tracing signal the wiremaster mapper can be used to generate a wire tracing signal. This signal is compatible with the triplett hound, hound 2 and hound 3. To trace a wire using this feature, connect the wiremaster mapper to the cable or pair of wires using one of the provided a...
