Setting Up Cable Ids - Fluke DSP-4100 User Manual

Setting Up Cable IDs

The cable identification (cable ID) is the name you assign to the Autotest results
you save. You can create a cable ID each time you save an Autotest, or you can
use IDs generated as follows:
•
The auto increment function generates IDs by incrementing the last
alphanumeric character in the cable ID.
•
The auto sequence function generates IDs by incrementing characters through
a range of values defined by a start and end ID.
•
On a DSP-4300 test tool, you can select IDs from lists downloaded to a
memory card. You can create and download the lists with LinkWare software.
See the online help or "Getting Started" under Help on the LinkWare menu for
details.
Enabling the Auto Increment Function
The test tool's auto increment function increments only the last alphanumeric
(letter or number) character of the cable identification name each time you save
Autotest results.
To enable or disable the auto increment function, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the rotary switch to SETUP.
2. Use $ Page Down and D U (if necessary) to highlight the auto
increment setting; then press !Choice.
3. Use D U to highlight Enable; then press E.
The last character of the cable ID you enter when you save the next Autotest will
be incremented when you save subsequent Autotests.
