Autotest on Coaxial Cabling
The following tests are run during an Autotest on coaxial cabling:
•
Impedance
•
Resistance
•
Length
•
Anomaly detection (Results shown only if anomalies are detected.)
To run an Autotest on coaxial cabling, refer to Figure 2-7 and proceed as follows:
1. Turn off any PC nodes connected to the cabling you are testing.
2. If you want the Autotest to report cable length, remove the terminator from the
far end of the cabling.
3. Attach any channel link interface adapter to the main unit.
4. Turn the rotary switch to AUTOTEST.
5. Verify that the test standard and cable type displayed are correct. You can
change these settings in the SETUP mode.
6. Remove the terminator from the near end of the coaxial cabling. Use the RJ45
to BNC adapter to connect the cable to the test tool.
7. Press T to start the Autotest.
