2. Make the correct connections in the cable as indicated.
• Once you’ve connected all the opens, the analyzer should prompt Good

Guided
Assembly
Building cables pin-to-pin
To use guided assembly to build pin-to-pin cables, follow these steps:
1. Following the documentation for the kind of cable you want to build, install the
correct connector adapters onto the 1000R+, then replace the cover plate.
2. Either connect a Sample Cable of the kind you want to build, or retrieve the
correct wirelist from memory (see page 29 for instructions on how to do this). If
you use a retrieved wirelist, skip step 3, and go directly to step 4.
3. Turn on the analyzer and learn the Sample Cable, then disconnect the Sample
Cable.
4. Install the same kinds of connectors used in the Sample Cable onto the cable
adapters already installed in the analyzer.
5. Make the first connection in your cable that is specified in the documentation.
The analyzer should prompt
Open Detected .
• If the analyzer prompts Errors Detected , you have not connected two
points that should be connected; you have created a short instead. If you
have created a short, break it, and go back to make the first good
connection.
6. Once the analyzer prompts Open Detected , press Display/Print once. The
analyzer will prompt you with the next set of points you should connect.
