JOBS
Test results can be organised into folders called Jobs. A maximum of 5000 results can be
stored, each consisting of a Data Test result and a Wiremap Test result, divided into a
maximum of 50 Jobs. Jobs can be uploaded from the tester to a USB memory key and it is
En
recommended to do this regularly to provide a backup against loss of data.
Following a factory reset a default job "MyJob" is created. To change the name of the Job,
press F1 (JOBS) on the HOME screen then F1 (EDIT). The Job name and up to 8 Information
fields can be edited by selecting the required field with the cursor keys and pressing
ENTER. Note that spaces are not allowed in Job names, and any space that is entered will
automatically be converted to an underscore character. When all of the required details are
complete, press F2 (APPLY). The details will be included when the Job is uploaded to USB.
To create another Job, press F1 (JOBS) on the HOME screen then F2 (OPTIONS). Select
NEW and press ENTER. Fill in the new Job name. The Information fields are automatically
copied from the last Job and can be changed if required.
Select the Job that is to be used as the current Job by highlighting the Job Selection box
on the HOME screen using the cursor keys, pressing ENTER and selecting the required Job.
By selecting the Auto Save box on the HOME screen, the results can be set to save
automatically, manually, or only if the test is passed.
The first time a test is run with a new or empty Job, the result can be saved manually, even
if Auto Save is switched on. This allows the format of the result name to be adjusted and
used for all subsequent results. To adjust the result name, move the highlight to the Result
field. The up/down cursor keys can then be used to increase/decrease the result number or
any other numerical part of the result name. Alternatively, press ENTER to edit the result
name. Subsequent tests will use the same result name format, but will increment the result
number, when the result is saved. For example, if the first result name is set to "Cable0123",
the next result will automatically be saved to "Cable0124" and so on.
To view saved results, press F1 (JOBS) on the HOME screen. The Job list is displayed. Use
the cursor keys to scroll up/down the list to the required Job, then ENTER to display the list
of results in the selected Job. Use the cursor keys to scroll up/down the list to the required
result, then ENTER to display the Wiremap and Data Test information for the currently
selected result. Press F1 (RENAME) to edit the name of the currently selected result. Press
F2 (DELETE) to delete the currently selected result. Press F3 to show ALL results, only
PASS results or only FAIL results
If a cable needs to be re-tested, for example if it previously failed but has now been
repaired, select the result in the result list using the cursor keys. Press ENTER. then F1
(RETEST). This returns to the HOME screen, runs a new test on the cable and automatically
saves the result using the selected name, overwriting the old result.
When a Job is complete, it can be uploaded from the tester to a USB memory key. Select
the required Job in the Job list then press F3 (TO USB). Select the required report style
then press F1 (CONFIRM). Insert a USB memory key and press ENTER. This does not
remove the Job from the tester – the Job is only copied to the USB key and more results
can still be added to it later if required. Alternatively, all of the Jobs can be uploaded at
once by pressing F2 (OPTIONS) in the Job screen then selecting ALL TO USB in the
Options screen. This screen also allows all stored Jobs to be deleted.
