Description
The Tomar 1760 Short-Range Tester is a precise handheld tool designed for technicians who service STROBECOM II and STROBESWITCH detectors. By aiming into the detector’s sight tube from under 6 inches and pressing ON, it quickly verifies detector responsiveness and readiness for gate or traffic-control tasks.
- Output LED: Invisible IA-type narrow beam width delivers a targeted signal into the detector’s sight tube for reliable activation.
- Frequency Control: Crystal-controlled solid-state digital oscillator ensures stable, repeatable test signals across bands.
- Recommended Use: Position the LED directly into the sight tube or detector eye for accurate results and quick verification.
- Activation Method: Press the ON button to emit the test signal and observe the detector’s confirmation LED or response.
- Battery: 9V alkaline transistor-type battery designed for dependable field operation.
- Model Variants: 1760-10 Transit Band (low) frequency and 1760-14 Emergency Band (high) frequency for compatibility with different detector configurations.
The 1760 Short-Range Tester enables fast, unambiguous checks of STROBECOM II and STROBESWITCH detectors, helping technicians confirm that a detector will preempt a traffic controller or trigger a gate opener relay when needed. Its compact form and simple ON-button operation make it ideal for on-site maintenance, pre-shift checks, and routine inspections. With selectable transit and emergency band options, you can tailor testing to the specific detector setup, reducing false readings and ensuring reliable system performance.
