> NVP
cable length. The default value defined by the selected cable type represents the typical NVP for that
cable type. You may enter a different value if necessary. To determine the actual value, change the
NVP until the measured length matches the known length of a cable. Use a cable at least 30 m (100
ft) long.
Increasing the NVP increases measured length.
