INTRODUCTION

Thank you for your purchase of the CT 1 CABLE DETECTIVE cable

tester. This unit was designed with the working musician and sound

person in mind. Read the following manual carefully to ensure proper

operation and a full understanding of all the CT 1 functions.

Tests for: Opens

Shorts

Intermittents

Crossed wires

DESCRIPTION

The CT 1 consists of two RCA jacks, two 1/4" jacks, two female XLR, two

male XLR jacks, and two MIDI jacks.

LED 1/GND: Indicates continuity between pins 1 of an XLR cable or MIDI

cable, or ground on an RCA or 1/4" cable.

LED 2/TIP: Indicates continuity between pins 2 of an XLR cable, or the tip

on an RCA or 1/4" cable.

LED 3/RING: Indicates continuity between pins 3 of an XLR cable or MIDI

cable, or the ring of a 1/4" cable.

To test RCA and 1/4" TS cables, plug each end of the cable into the proper jack

and wiggle the cable around at different points on the cable. Watch the 1 and 2

LEDs, if either LED is off, or goes on and off - the cable is bad.

The testing procedure for 1/4" TRS (stereo) and XLR cables is identical to the

above, except watch the 1, 2 and 3 LEDs.

Adapter type cables, such as 1/4" to XLR cables, may also be tested by plugging

each end into it's proper jack on either side of the line. Test as indicated above.

To test a MIDI cable, plug each end of the cable into the MIDI jacks and test as

described above. Watch the 1 and 2 LEDs, if either LED is off, or goes on and off

- the cable is bad.

NOTE: WHEN TESTING A 1/4" MONO TO RCA CABLE, CONNECT THE 1/4"

PLUG TO THE LEFT 1/4" JACK AND THE RCA TO THE RIGHT RCA JACK.

DUE TO A PARTICULAR CIRCUIT CONSIDERATION, TESTING VICE VERSA

(WITH THE 1/4" ON THE RIGHT AND THE RCA ON THE LEFT) WILL BE

INACCURATE.

TEST INDICATORS

NO LEDS = BAD CORD OR DEAD BATTERY

1 LED = SHORTED WIRES

2 LEDS = RCA, MIDI OR MONO CORD GOOD, OR CROSSED WIRES

IN STEREO & XLR CORDS

3 LED = GOOD STEREO 1/4" TRS, OR XLR CORD
