Abstract
An improved digital signal line carrier type detector non-conductively senses and counts voltage pulses on a probed line. Further, the detector produces a human-readable display of the carrier type in use on the probed line, and can detect carriers of various frequencies without the use of multiple oscillators or probes. The detector may be housed in a hand-held portable housing, and may be powered by one or more batteries. A timer circuit is usable with the detector to prevent accidental discharge of the battery for an extended period of time.
