3.3 Selecting a Cable Test Standard
The Cable Test Standard used by the SCAN-LAN Vt to certify cables may
be changed whenever the up/down arrows symbol appears next to the cable
name. (See the illustration below.)
To select a different cable test standard:
1.Set the dial to Autotest, Quick
√
, Wire Map, Length, or Traffic.
2.Press either arrow key to display the cable-standard library and select a
different cable test standard.
3.When the desired cable test standard is highlighted, press SELECT (F4)
or Enter. The SCAN-LAN Vt immediately begins testing using the new
cable test standard.
NOTE
Refer to Appendix A, Test Standards, for assistance in choosing an
appropriate cable test standard. This chapter explains when to select a
cable standard and when to select a network standard.
When using a SCAN-LAN Vt System, cable standards are compared at
both ends. If they differ, the standard on the remote end will be changed
to match that of the main end.
3.4 Defining Custom Standards
Existing cable test standards can be modified to create a maximum of 2
additional custom standards. Custom standards are initially labeled as
Custom #1 and Custom #2. Once you have defined a new standard, it
appears in the cable-standard library identified by an asterisk (*).
