II Cable Tester automatically performs a number of
pre-programmed single tests. Autotest can be enabled from the Display (DH) or Remote (RH)

Specification of the test series is based on approved or recommended standards, as well as
specific parameters.
After the test series is completed, LanTEK

Connections
Separate cable line to be tested from all network components.

(link), and the Remote handset (RH) to the opposite end of the cable line (link).
Test run
By pressing the AUTOTEST key, the test procedures described below are initiated:
First, the Display handset (DH) attempts to establish a connection to the Remote handset
(RH) via a correctly connected wire pair. If connection cannot be established, the Display
handset (DH) will show the message "Searching for Remote (RH). The search is continued
until the Autotest is manually cancelled or the Remote handset (RH) is located.
After connection to the Remote handset (RH) has been successfully established, its serial
number is read out to check if current configuration data are available.
NOTE:
If during the last 7 days no calibration has been performed on the identified Remote
handset (RH), the Autotest is cancelled and the user receives a message that a field
calibration is required.
Display handset (DH) continues the Autotest if serial number is valid. Most Autotests start
with the Wiremap test for twisted pair cables.
Following the Wiremap test, the other single tests that have been defined for the currently
selected cable type are performed.
After completion of Autotest, all test data can be displayed, saved and printed.
The test results of the last Autotest are stored in the non-volatile memory and remain
available for viewing even after the LanTEK
®
II Cable Tester is powered on or powered
down.
