The length mode measures the length of a cable by
measuring its capacitance and using the capacitance per
unit length (length constant) to calculate the length.
The length is displayed on the LCD along with the
current value of the length constant.
The SEL button changes the pair being measured in a
1–2, 3–6, 4–5, 7–8, and auto-select sequence. The pair
number is displayed next to the length except in auto-
select mode. If a selected pair has a fault, the fault
replaces the length reading on the LCD. In auto-select
mode, the tester automatically selects a pair without a
fault.
You can use the up/down arrows to change the length
constant. If network termination patterns are found in
the length mode, the tester will display “T Ring
Network??,” “xbase-T Network?,” or “Network?” (all four
lines terminated). If the tester senses a remote, the ID
Number is displayed.
