Safety Information
To prevent possible fire, electric shock, personal injury,
damage to equipment, or inaccurate test results, read the
safety information in the DTX CableAnalyzer Series Users
Manual before using the tester.
DTX Software Requirements
The DTX main and remote testers need software version 2.4.1 or later to work with the
DTX-PCxxS adapters
To determine the software versions in your main and remote testers, do the following:
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 Turn the rotary switch to SPECIAL FUNCTIONS; then select Version Information.
The latest software version is available at no charge on the Fluke Networks web site.
Download the update file from the website; then use LinkWare
new software into the DTX testers. See the DTX CableAnalyzer Users Manual, the DTX
CableAnalyzer Technical Reference Handbook, or the online help in LinkWare for
instructions.
Patch cord performance requirements may change as
standards are amended. If requirements change, Fluke
Networks will post an updated test specification database
for the DTX tester on the Fluke Networks DTX software
download page. To install a new database, use the Modify
DTX Test Limits utility in LinkWare.
Characterizing the Performance of the Adapters
When you receive the patch cord adapters, you should characterize their performance.
Later, the test results can help you determine when the adapters' jacks need replacing
or verify that the adapters are working properly. See Appendix A: "How to Characterize
and Test the Performance of the Adapters".
