CableTest/Pretest – This mode
performs detailed analysis on a cable�
If a remote is sensed at the remote end
of the cable, a wire map, the remote ID
and certain faults are displayed at the
end of the cable analysis:
• There are two lines of numbers
displayed at the end of the test� The
top line of numbers on the display
represents the connector pins on
the main unit� The second line of
pin numbers is the connector pin
numbers of the remote, normally
being the same as the top line for a
normal (straight-thru) data cable�
• If there is a miswire, the numbers
on the second line indicate the pin
numbers detected�
• If no connection is detected for
some of the pins, the second line
will be blank in those pin locations�
• If a short is detected, the second
line will have a ashing ‘X’ in that
position and the specic short
condition displayed on the third line�
• If a high-resistance fault (i�e� a “soft”
short, as opposed to a hard short,
of up to 125 kohm for Network and
100 kohm for Telco) is detected, the
second line will have a ashing ‘R’
