Introduction
The Greenlee 2012 Circuit Tracer consists of a transmitter and a
receiver. When plugged into an energized circuit, the transmitter will
generate a signal. This signal will be present along the entire circuit and
in any cords, tools or appliances connected to that circuit. The receiver
is then used to trace the circuit or locate the circuit breaker.
Operation
The receiver is more effective when it is held perpendicular to the
conductor it is tracing. See Typical Applications for illustrations of
typical uses.
Setup
1. Plug the transmitter into the circuit’s receptacle. (Receptable should
be NEMA 5-15R with 100 to 125 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz.)
2. Set the selector to “Line.”
3. Turn on the receiver by rotating the OFF/adjustment knob clockwise
until it clicks. The ON/Pulse LED will illuminate and a tone will
sound.
Note: If the ON/Pulse LED fails to illuminate, change the battery.
4. Rotate the knob counterclockwise until it meets resistance. This will
ensure that the test is started in the highest sensitivity.
5. Hold the receiver close to the transmitter. The ON/Pulse LED will
flash and an “H”will appear on the display.
•A series of tones will begin.
•As the receiver moves closer to the transmitter, the tone will
become higher pitched.
•If the tone sounds like a continuous hiss or buzz and the “H”is
not showing continuously, the transmitter does not have power.

6. Test the unit on a known functioning circuit or component.
(Receptable should be NEMA 5-15R with 100 to 125 VAC,
50 to 60 Hz.)
•If the unit does not function as expected on a known functioning
circuit, replace the battery in the receiver (2012-R).
•If the unit still does not function as expected, send the unit to
Greenlee for repair.
Tracing a Circuit
1. Set up the transmitter and receiver as described in Setup above.
2. Beginning at the transmitter, move the receiver in a sweeping
motion along the wall, floor or ceiling.
3. Using the tone and “H”display as a guide, trace the wiring. Adjust
the sensitivity according to the material of the wall, floor or ceiling.
•Decrease the signal’s intensity (and the receiver’s tone) by
turning the knob clockwise.
•Increase the signal’s intensity (and the receiver’s tone) by
turning the knob counterclockwise.
Note: If the signal becomes lost during this procedure, continue on to
where the circuit is likely to end (a junction box or fuse panel) and trace
back to the transmitter.
Locating a Circuit Breaker
1. Set up the transmitter and receiver as described in Setup above.
2. Slowly move the receiver toward the circuit breaker panel.
The ON/Pulse LED will blink and an “H”will appear on the display.
A series of tones will begin. The “H”will help distinguish the real
signal from interference or line noise.

3. Back away from the panel and try again if the tone is a continuous
hiss or buzz.
4. Go to the next circuit breaker panel if no signal is emitted.
5. After locating the proper panel, open the panel door and set the
selector on the receiver to Fuse/Breaker.
6. Turn the knob clockwise until it meets resistance. This will ensure
that the test is started on the highest sensitivity.
7. Start at the top of the panel and scan each breaker, taking note of
which breakers give a signal.
8. Decrease the signal’s intensity (and the receiver’s tone) by turning
the knob counterclockwise.
9. Scan the breakers that previously gave a signal.
10. Repeat steps 7 through 9 until only one breaker gives a signal. The
transmitter is connected to the circuit powered by this circuit
breaker.
Note: If there is any doubt as to which is the correct breaker or fuse
(due to unusual breaker design, wiring or the possibility that two
breakers are feeding the same circuit), have the wiring checked by a
qualified electrician.
