Options for Cable IDs

When you save the test results for a cable, you usually give the
results the name that is the ID for the cable. There are several
methods you can use to make IDs for test results:
 You can use the CABLE ID SETUP screen to make a set of
sequential IDs. See "Tutorial: Make a Set of Sequential Cable
IDs" on page 40. When Auto Save is also on, the tester
automatically saves each result with the next available ID in
the set.
A cable ID set also lets you use IDs again so you can add
different results to tests you saved before.
 You can enter an ID each time you do a test. To do this, turn
off the Auto Save function (see page 39). Each time a test is
completed, tap SAVE (if the test passed) or FIX LATER (if the
test failed), then enter an ID manually.
You can use LinkWare PC software to make a set of IDs,

download the set to the tester, then import it into a project.
See "Import an ID Set into a Project" on page 169.
After you do a test, you can enter the ID for a test you saved

before. This lets you replace results or add different results to
a test you saved before.
 If the test failed before, and you saved the results, you can
select it on the RESULTS screen, then press TEST AGAIN to
replace the results for that ID.
Cable IDs are case-sensitive. For example, the
tester saves result with the names "A0" and "a0"
in two different records.
Cable IDs can have a maximum of 60 characters.
If you delete all the ID sets in a project, the tester
makes a default set that starts with 001.
