Make Sure Your Tester is Ready to Certify
Twisted Pair Cabling
To make sure your tester meets its accuracy specifications, follow
these guidelines:
Keep the tester's software current. The latest software is

available on the Fluke Networks website. See "Update the
Software" on page 589.
At a minimum, set the reference for the twisted pair adapters

every 30 days. Because this procedure includes a self test and
helps ensure maximum accuracy of test results, the best
practice is to set the reference each day. See "Set the
Reference" on page 82.
 Make sure you select the correct cable type for the job, and
that the NVP for the cable is correct. See Table 3 on page 84.
 Make sure you select the correct test limit for the job. See
Table 3 on page 84.
Make sure the cords and connectors for all test equipment

and patch cords are in good condition.
Make sure the battery is fully charged.

Send the modules to a Fluke Networks service center every 12

months for factory calibration.
