3. komponentit

The Fluke 2042 system consists of two main units: the Transmitter (2042T) and the Receiver (2042R).

Figure 3.1: Fluke 2042 Cable Locator (Receiver and Transmitter)

The image displays the two primary components of the Fluke 2042 Cable Locator system. On the left is the Fluke 2042R Receiver, a yellow handheld device with a large LCD screen at the top, displaying "SENSE 9", "CODE F", and "LEVEL". Below the screen are several control buttons, including a power button, a light button, a UAC button, and navigation/selection buttons. The bottom part of the receiver shows "FLUKE 2042R RECEIVER". On the right is the Fluke 2042T Transmitter, also a yellow rectangular device with a dark grey face. Its LCD screen shows "Volt 12 50 120 230 400", a warning triangle, "CODE F", and "LEVEL" bars. Below the screen are two circular buttons, one green and one black, and "FLUKE 2042T TRANSMITTER" at the bottom. Both units are designed for robust field use.

3.1. Fluke 2042T Transmitter

• LC-näyttö: Shows transmitting level, transmitting code, and external voltage (12V, 50V, 120V, 230V, 400V).
• Lähtösignaali: Generates a 125 kHz signal for tracing.
• Voitage Alue: Operates with voltages up to 400 V AC/DC.
• Taajuusalue: 0–60 Hz.

3.2. Fluke 2042R Receiver

• Backlight LC-Display: Displays level of receiving signal, code of receiving signal, and live voltage osoitus.
• Herkkyyden säätö: Allows for automatic or manual adjustment of receiving signal sensitivity.
• Acoustical Signal: Switchable audio feedback for signal detection.
• Soihtu Lamp Tehtävä: Integroitu valo pimeissä olosuhteissa työskentelyyn.
• Tracing Depth: Capable of tracing cables 0-2.5 m in walls/underground.
• Main Voltage Tunnistus: Detects main voltage from 0-0.4 m.

4. Asennus

Before first use, ensure both the Transmitter and Receiver have sufficient power. The units come with batteries included.

4.1. Pariston asennus/tarkistus

While batteries are included, it is good practice to check their charge level. Refer to the battery compartment on each unit for access. Ensure batteries are inserted with correct polarity.

4.2. Lähettimen kytkeminen

Connect the transmitter to the circuit or cable you wish to trace. The Fluke 2042T can be connected to live or dead cables. Use the appropriate leads and adapters for your application. Ensure all connections are secure before powering on the transmitter.

5. Käyttöohjeet

The Fluke 2042 is designed for ease of use, providing clear signal identification through its digitally coded sender signal.

5.1. Basic Cable Tracing

1. Virta päälle: Turn on both the Transmitter (2042T) and the Receiver (2042R).
2. Yhdistä lähetin: Connect the 2042T to the cable or circuit to be traced. For live circuits, ensure the voltage is within the specified range (up to 400V AC/DC).
3. Select Mode (Receiver): On the 2042R, select the appropriate mode (e.g., automatic or manual sensitivity adjustment) using the control buttons.
4. Trace Cable: Move the 2042R Receiver along the suspected path of the cable. The display will show the signal level and code. The acoustical signal can be switched on for audible feedback.
5. Identify Signal: The digitally coded signal ensures that you are tracing the correct cable, preventing false readings from other sources. The "CODE" display on both units should match.
6. Tarkka sijainti: The signal strength (LEVEL) on the receiver's display will increase as you get closer to the cable. Use this to pinpoint the exact location.

5.2. Lisätoiminnot

• Live Voltage Merkintä: The receiver's display will indicate the presence of live voltage, enhancing safety during operation.
• Soihtu Lamp: Activate the integrated torch lamp on the receiver for improved visibility in dimly lit areas.
• Useita signaaleja: Additional transmitters can be used to distinguish between several signals in complex installations.

6. Huolto

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your Fluke 2042 Cable Locator.

• Puhdistus: Puhdista laite säännöllisesti mainoksellaamp kangas. Älä käytä hankaavia puhdistusaineita tai liuottimia.
• Varastointi: Store the device in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Refer to storage temperature specifications.
• Akun hoito: Although batteries are included, if the device is to be stored for an extended period, it is recommended to remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
• Kalibrointi: For professional use, periodic calibration may be required to maintain accuracy. Consult Fluke's official support for calibration services.

7. Vianmääritys

If you encounter issues with your Fluke 2042, try the following steps:

• Ei signaalia/Heikko signaali:
  • Varmista, että sekä lähetin että vastaanotin ovat päällä.
  • Tarkista molempien laitteiden akun varaustaso.
  • Verify proper connection of the transmitter to the cable.
  • Adjust the receiver's sensitivity (manual mode).
  • Ensure the cable is within the tracing depth range.
• Väärät lukemat:
  • Confirm the "CODE" displayed on the receiver matches the transmitter's code.
  • Minimize interference from other electrical devices.
• Näyttöongelmat:
  • Tarkista akun varaustaso.
  • Ensure the backlight is activated if working in dark conditions.

If problems persist, contact Fluke customer support.
