• Locate: Detects network map-only ID remotes #1–#5.
This mode is not used to test cables but is used only to
map the location of the jack that the far end is connected
to using the map-only ID remotes. For testing cables use
the master remote stored in the bottom of the tester.
• Hi Lo 1, Hi Lo 2, Hi, Lo (four tone cadences): The four
modes are all tone generator modes with different
sounds. The "Hi Lo" tones are made up of two frequencies
with different timings. "Hi" and "Lo" are single frequency.
Once in a tone mode, short presses change the pins
carrying tone. The pins with tone are displayed. In a tone
mode, the tester will turn off automatically 30 minutes
after the last button press or by exiting to mode select
with a long press. Note that you must use an analog tone
probe to hear the tones generated by the tester.
• Off: When the button is released with "OFF" displayed,
the Tester will power off. Once in one of the above
modes, OFF is the first mode offered upon exiting to
mode select. To select a different mode other than OFF,
continue to hold the button down and the next mode in
rotation will be displayed next.
• Cable: The cable test mode is the single cable test mode
with 20 second timeout that a short press from powered
off executes.

WIRING AND DISPLAY EXAMPLES
Properly Wired T568A UTP:
T568B is electrically identical to T568A but swaps
the green and orange pairs. Either standard will
work as long as the same standard is used at both
ends of a run or patch cable. Mixing "A" and "B"
creates a cross-over cable.
T568A Cable with a Misfire and
Unrecognized Continuity:
1 and 2 pins on the MapMaster mini are con-
nected to pins 2 and 1 at the remote-end. The
pins with this error are flashing. The "U" for the
remote pin numbers indicates an unrecognizable
continuity was detected that is neither a short or
open. An ID remote connected to the MapMaster
mini when in cable test mode would also show
this error.
WIRING AND DISPLAY EXAMPLES
T568A Cable with a Short and Open:
The 1–2 pair pins are shorted together, and the
7–8 pair is open. The pins with the errors are
flashing. Dash lines (-) on the bottom (remote)
display line indicate the short, while no numbers
on the bottom line indicate the open pair.
T568A Cable with Split Pairs:
A common error in building a cable is to put all
the pairs in pin sequence 1–2, 3–4, 5–6 and
7–8. This will produce the correct continuity,
but the pairs are designated to be on pins 3–6
and 4–5 in the middle of the connector for
compatibility with phone wiring. This wiring error
is only detected by the split pair test since the
designated pairs are not twisted together.
