• After connecting the cable, the BNC-LED (3) should no longer be
illuminated. If the BNC-LED (3) is illuminated this means that the
cable is not OK.
• Now activate the BNC Test button (2). If the
flashes green, this means that the cable is OK. If the BNC-LED (3)
flashes red or if it is not on, this means that the cable is not OK.
Testing twisted pair cables
• Connect the RJ45 plug of the cable which is to be tested with the
cable tester and the remote unit (7).
• Switch on the cable tester by pressing on the power switch (6).
The blinking power LED (4) signals readiness for operation.
• As soon as the cable tester is switched on, the device scans each
individual cable one line after another. If the cable is OK, the LEDs
(1&2, 3&6, 4&5, 7&8) of the remote unit (7) flash green one after
the other. If a LED is first green then red or if it does not flash at
all, it means that the cable is defect.
• Shielded cables can be tested by pressing on the ground switch
(5). If the shielding is OK, all the LEDs of the remote unit (7) flash
one after the other (also the GND LED), except the LED for the
3&6 pair. If the GND LED flashes green then red or if it does not
flash at all, it means that the cable is defect.
When testing a non shielded cable, make sure that the ground
switch (5) is off.
