INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Network Cable Tester
Please read and learn safety instructions before use or maintain the equipment
- Please store the test in right place and operate the incorrect way in case of the sharp probe hurts sb .
- The main tester uses 6V DC for power supply; the Receiver uses 9V battery for the power supply.
- Never put the equipment in a place with much dust, humidity and high temperature (over 40°C).
- Please use the battery according to the specification; otherwise, it may result in damage to equipment.
- Please never dismount the equipment arbitrarily. The maintenance and care shall be conducted by professional personnel.
- The tester will shut off automatically if it does not work for 30 minutes in succession.
- Please take out the battery in the launcher and receiver if the equipment is not used for a long time so as to prevent that the battery liquid is leaked in future.
- Never use the equipment to detect a power cord with electricity (such as power supply circuit of 220V), otherwise, it may result in damage to equipment and personal injury.
- Never conduct related operations of the communication line in thunderstorm weather so as to prevent lightning strokes and impact on personal safety.
Overview

Product interface and keypad Introduction
Product operation methods
Start and display:
Carry out self-checking at the same time (The dotted line dynamically displays
the course of self-checking from left to right):
Wait 5 seconds or push any key to display the main menu.
Main menu display:
There are four functions to be chosen on the main menu.
- WireMap — Wiring diagram measurement to check end-to-end continuity of cables M, L, R and locate the error.
- Pair & Length—Pair and measure length to verify cable length, open circuit, pairing.
- Coax/Tel—Coaxial cable measurement to check continuity and indicate open and short circuits.
- SETUP—Calibrate and length of cable.
Wiring diagram (WIREMAP) test function:
After entering the wiring diagram (WIREMAP) test function, the tester shall carry out wiring diagram (WIREMAP) test and displays as follows while checking is being undertaken:
Test Result 1: Short circuit (SHORT)
It displays as follows if there is any short circuit in cable or terminal: (e.g.12 short circuit in the sample)
At the moment, push the key to restart testing or push the PAIR &Lkey to return the main menu. Always eliminate short circuit error first and then start further measurement.
Test Result 2: Neither far-end matcher (ID)nor cable Inserts into local
port (L).
The tester will automatically detect the remote unit and connected it will
display as follows if the cable to be checked does not insert into the remote
unit or if the cable does not into the local(L)in the local test:
At the moment, push the key to restart testing or push PAIR &L key to return the main menu.
Test Result 3: Normal wiring diagram (WIREMAP) display
The tester will automatically detect the remote unit and local port (L)
cable and it will display a wiring diagram (WIREMAP) as follows if the remote
unit(ID) or the cable to be checked is found:
“R:” means “Remote” tester.
“M:”means “Master” tester.
At the moment, push key to restart testing or push PAIR &L key to return
the main menu.
Test Result 4: Wiring diagram (WIREMAP) displays when there is an open circuit at the far-end of the cable.
“R:” line “3” and “6′ pin location display ex”, it indicates an open circuit
in far-end plug “3” and “6” pin, and the open circuit is located nearby the
far-end plug.(The open circuit should be located within 10% cable length if it
is measured from the far-end plug)
Note: because the cable is made via paired cable cores,the open circuit
at the far-end always displays in pairs as shown above where there is one open
circuit or all are open circuits in the far-end “3”and “6”pins. For
identification, it is simple to move the tester to the far-end to have the
measurement.
Test Result 5: Wiring diagram (WIREMAP) display when there is an open circuit at the near-end of cable.lt will display wiring diagram(WIREMAP) as follows if there is an open circuit at the near-end plug of the cable:
“M:” line –3″ pin location displays “x”, it indicates an open circuit at near- end plug “3” pin and the open circuit is located nearby the near-end plug. (The open circuit should be located within 10% cable length if it is measured from the near-end plug)
Test Result 6: Wiring diagram (WIREMAP) display when there is an open circuit in the middle of the cable.
“I” line “3” pin location displays “x”, it indicates an open circuit in the middle of “3” pin cable. (The open circuit should be located within 10%-90%cable length if it is measured from the near-end plug.) The pair and length function (PAIR & LENGTH) can make the user know where the open point accurately is.
Pair and length measurement (PAIR & LENGTH) function: When measuring cable length, just connect one end of the cable with the Main tester, no need to connect the other end with the remote unit.
After entering into “PAIR & LENGTH” measurement, it will display as follows to
indicate the measurement is being undertaken:
Note:ln view of different technical parameters of different brand cables, the
user should use the “calibration” function before length measurement (Refer to
the details herein).
Test Result 1: Short circuit (SHORT)
It will display as follows if there is any short circuit in cable or terminal: (12 short circuit in the sample)
(The tester is incapable to exactly locate a short circuit.)
At the moment, pushMilkey to restart the test or push PAIR &L key to
return the main menu.
Always correct short circuit error first and then start further measurement.
Test Result 2: Normal pair and length (PAIR &LENGTH) display It will display as follows if pair and length(PAIR & LENGTH) measurement is in normal condition:
At the moment, push key to restart test or push OUR key to return the main menu.
Test Result 3: Abnormal pair and length (PAIR &LENGTH) display It will display the paired lines first if there is unpaired lines and length (PAIR & LENGTH) measurement:
In which, the last line (78 ) indicates there is no pair is found in lines 7and 8, at the moment, it will display the length of the unpaired line number.
It will display “X” to indicate an open circuit if the length is less than
90%of other line pair length and the open circuit is located at around 89.3M
from the tester. (The open circuit line number could be rechecked by the
WIREMAP function.)
At the moment,push key to go back the previous picture and push bikes to
show further unpaired line number length.(Or push WWI key to return
the main menu) Coaxial cable and telephone line measurement function: After
entering into (Coax/Tel) function, the tester will show the test result as
follows if the cable is normal:
Coaxial cable and telephone line measurement function:
After entering into (Coax/Tel) function, the tester will show the test
result as follows if the cable is normal:
It shall display “OPEN” if there is any open circuit or the coaxial cable is not connected. It shall display “SHORT” .At the moment, push key to repeat the measurement or push PAIR &L key to return the main menu.
Note: For coaxial cable measurement, it needs accessories: BNC adaptor cable:one end is connected to the “main” port, the other end is connected to the coax cable.
Calibration and setup (SETUP) function:
After entering into calibration and setup (SETUP) function, the tester shall display as follows:
Push key to move cursor “—>” indicator up and down to the desired item and
then push PAIR &L key to enter related setup function accordingly.
UNIT: It is used to set up length units and shifts between meter (Meter) and
feet (FT).
Calibration:
For an accurate measurement of cable length, the calibration operation should
be done as follows.
Push key (No) to exit calibration function.
Insert same type cable of given length into “M” port, do not need to insert
far-end recognizer, pushed key (Yes) to undertake measurement and display the
measured length :
At the moment, hold and key (-/+) to display the length to be adjusted to
actual given length and then push DMA key to reserve calibration factor and
exit calibration function.
It will display as follows if the cable length being measured is too short
(<10M) which reminds the user to change a longer cable for calibration:
At the moment, push Ikey (No) to exit the calibration function. Push Ikey (Yes) to repeat the measurement.
At the moment, push key (No) to exit the calibration function. Push key (Yes)
to repeat the measurement.
Note: If the tester is restarted, the tester will recover the standard
calibration factor of the Class UTPS cable as the value set before.
