6100-Cu Multifunction Copper Tester Operation Manual
Tests
The purpose of the Multimeter tests function is to
detect AC/DC voltages and currents, measure
resistance and capacitance in a loop, and stress test
the loop.
To access Multimeter tests:
From the Copper Main pane, highlight Multimeter and
press to open the Multimeter menu.

9.1 Multimeter Main Page

Multimeter tests allow you to do the following:

make basic electrical safety checks (AC volts)

check for crossed or coupled battery voltages

assess basic loop continuity

balance loop quality with resistance
measurements

measure total electrical length with capacitance

measure the ground path resistance with the
station ground test

run a stress test.
Pair Detective runs many of these tests automatically
and is a recommended starting test to assess loop
quality and identify common faults.
To access Pair Detective from Multimeter tests:
1. Press to return to the Copper Main menu.
2. Highlight Pair Detective and press
launch the test.
