Testing Twisted Pair Cabling
1
Turn on the tester.
If the tester is already on and in coaxial test mode (
),
press
to switch to twisted pair test mode (
).
2
Connect the tester and wiremap adapter or ID locator to
the cabling as shown in Figures 5 through 17.
The test runs continuously until you change modes or turn
the tester off.
Notes
You can measure length without connecting a far
end adapter; however, an adapter is required for a
complete wiremap test.
If the
PoE
indicator appears, see page 31.
