DSX Software Requirements
The DSX main and remote testers need Versiv software version 2.3 or later to do
tests with the DSX-PCxx adapters.
To see the software versions in your main and remote testers
1 Connect the main and remote testers together with permanent link and
channel adapters or two channel adapters and a patch cord.
2 Turn on both testers.
3 On the main tester tap TOOLS, then Version Information.
The latest DSX software version is available at no charge on the Fluke Networks
web site. Download the update file from the website, then use LinkWare
software to install new software into the DSX testers. See the Versiv Series
manuals or the online help in LinkWare for instructions.
Characterize the Performance of the Adapters
When you first get the patch cord adapters, characterize their performance.
Later, the test results can help you see if the adapters need new jacks. See
Appendix A.
How to Do Tests on Patch Cords
Testing patch cords that have poorly crimped plugs can
reduce the life of the patch cord adapter's jacks or make
them unusable.
How to Set Up the Tester
1 Attach the DSX-PCxx adapters to the main and remote DSX testers.
2 On the home screen, tap the test setup panel.
3 On the CHANGE TEST screen, tap NEW TEST.
