ABSTRACT:
A detector and a variable signal generator are coupled so that one or more specific changes in the output of the detector will cause a change in the characteristics of the generated signal. This change in signal characteristics is non-transient, the change remaining in effect until such time that another change in the detector output causes another change in the signal characteristic. The system can provide remote-end positive wire identification with no additional instrumentation at the remote end. When this invention is embodied in an already existing piece of test equipment, such as a multimeter or time domain reflectometer, there need be no additional hardware instrumentation at either end.
