• 200EP-G only. Safety Safety is essential in the use and maintenance of Greenlee tools and equipment. This instruction manual and any markings on the tool provide information for avoiding hazards and unsafe practices related to the use of this tool. Observe all of the safety information provided.5 Purpose of this Manual This instruction manual is intended to familiarize all personnel with the safe operation and maintenance procedures for the Greenlee 200B-G and 200EP-G Tone Probes. Keep this manual available to all personnel. Replacement manuals are available upon request at no charge at www.greenlee.com. Operation

1. Connect the leads of a Greenlee tone-sending test set

(e.g.77HP) as follows: a. Pair Identification, to the two wires of the pair. SeeFigure2a. b. Single Conductor/Cable Tracing: Connect the RED lead to the subject wire and the BLACK lead to earth or ground. See Figure 2b. Note: Refer to the instruction manual provided with the tone generator for more details. Figure 2a. Pair Tracing Figure 2b. Cable Tracing6

2. Place the test set in the TONE position.

3. To activate the probe, press and hold the ON/OFF button. This

button must remain depressed to operate. Hold the tip of the probe near the tone generator and listen for the tone. This verifies that the tone generator is working and identifies the sound of the tone (steady, warbling, etc.).

4. Once activated, the volume control can be adjusted to suit

the environment. Reception can be increased to overcome noise (e.g., vehicular traffic, airplanes, or engine room) or decreased to reduce interference (e.g., computer/data hum or AC buzz).

5. The 200EP-G is equipped with recessed terminal ports for

connecting a lineman’s handset. Attaching the handset in TALK mode automatically activates the amplifier.

6. Touch the tip of the probe to the insulation of each conductor.

Reception of tone will be loudest on the subject wire and detection may be improved by separating the wires from the group. If more than one pair or single conductor is carrying the tone, decrease the volume until only the subject conductor is left with tone, ensuring that positive identification has been made.

7. When pair tracing, in order to confirm that the correct pair

has been identified, separate the two wires. The signal will be as loud on each of the pair wires and will NULL halfway between the two wires.

8. On the 200EP-G, press the ON/OFF button further to its

second position to turn the flashlight ON. Reduce pressure slightly to turn it back OFF. Note: To use the 200EP-G without pressing the ON/OFF button, connect a jumper, a telephone test set (in TALK mode), or headset to the recessed tabs near the speaker.7 Specifications Electrical Gain (nominal): 30 dB Input Impedance (nominal): 100 MΩ Probe Tip Resistance (min): Metal Tip: 0 Ω Plastic Tip: 300 Ω Headset: 3.5 mm stereo plug; 8 ohms minimum Battery: One 9 VDC (NEDA 1604, JIS 006P, or IEC 6LR61) Battery Life (nominal): 50 hours Physical Length: 231 mm (9.0”) Width: 55 mm (2.2”) Depth: 28 mm (1.1”) Weight: 145 g (5.2 oz) Operating/Storage Conditions Temperature: 0 °C to 50 °C (32 °F to 122 °F) Maintenance Battery Replacement
