Options for Cable IDs
When you save the test results for a cable, you usually give the
results the name that is the ID for the cable. There are several
methods you can use to make IDs for test results:

You can use the
CABLE ID SETUP
screen to make a set of
sequential IDs. See “Tutorial: Make a Set of Sequential Cable
IDs” on page 66. When
Auto Save
is also on, the tester
automatically saves each result with the next available ID in
the set.
A cable ID set also lets you use IDs again so you can add different
results to tests you saved before.
 You can enter an ID each time you do a test. To do this, turn
off the
Auto Save
function (see page 65). Each time a test is
completed, tap
SAVE
(if the test passed) or
FIX LATER
(if the
test failed), then enter an ID manually.
 You can use LinkWare PC software to make a set of IDs,
download the set to the tester, then import it into a project.
See “Import an ID Set into a Project” on page 552.

After you do a test, you can enter the ID for a test you saved
before. This lets you replace results or add different results to
a test you saved before.
 If the test failed before, and you saved the results, you can
select it on the
RESULTS
screen, then press
TEST AGAIN
to
replace the results for that ID.
Notes
Cable IDs are case-sensitive. For example, the
tester saves result with the names “A0” and “a0”
in two different records.
Cable IDs can have a maximum of 60 characters.
If you delete all the ID sets in a project, the tester
makes a default set that starts with 001.
