Cable Labeling

• To define cable names for creating a test list, you can use the label buttons to insert

individual variables into the name. Any number of name fields can be used from the

selection list, and multiple separator characters can also be used. The order of the

name components depends on the order of selection of the field name.

• In order for the cable test list to automatically increment, the cable ID number

must be present in the name. It can be positioned anywhere in the template. If ID

is not activated as a name component, an error message will appear.

• To add to the cable name, fill in the appropriate field and tap on the button to the
