    Map consistency • Contact analysis After connecting the SLC to the SIGA-MFT, connect the SIGA-MFT to your PC using the USB cable, and then Method 1: Map consistency start the SIGA-MFT Software. The map consistency method maps each device in the...
  • Page 9: Setting Mapping Analysis Options

    To set mapping analysis options: Figure 10: Starting the analysis 1. In the SIGA-MFT Software window, click Mapping > Mapping Analysis, as shown in Figure 9 above. This opens the Mapping Analysis window. 2. Modules: Click Selection > Include Modules to toggle between including and excluding modules in the analysis.

    Devices that don’t respond to the map command consistently need to be investigated. Figure 13: Inconsistent device (1) The inconsistent device does not report during contact analysis (2) The device appears in a summary section of the mapping consistency report SIGA-MFT Map Fault Tool User Guide...
  • Page 12: Example 2: Low Current Difference Value

    T-taps to detect devices with Figure 16: Reports for low current difference devices low current difference (DIF). Devices reporting a DIF value of 7 or less need to be investigated. Figure 15: Low current difference device SIGA-MFT Map Fault Tool User Guide...

    (2) Negative DIF results are also reported for correctly wired modules. Reports All devices in the loop within a loop are flagged as failed in the report. Devices outside the loop are not. Figure 19: Report for a loop-in-a-loop SIGA-MFT Map Fault Tool User Guide...
  • Page 14: Example 5: Reverse Input Polarity Or Short

    Example 6: Connecting the Class A return If there is a short in the SLC or if the input polarity is When the SIGA-MFT is connected to the Class A return reversed, the SIGA-MFT application will not operate of an SLC and the devices are wired correctly: correctly.

    3. Use the current map to get the end-of-line device addresses (from the map) and the T-tap count (from the map loop statistics). 4. Use the SIGA-MFT report (the sections on end-of- line devices) to identify the device addresses that are not actual end-of line-devices.
