Tone
Fig 32
SignalTEK NT can act as a tone generator (Fig 32). Together with a
compatible tone probe, the route of a cable can be traced. A choice
of three tones can be selected. To achieve the best result, the tone
may be played over one of eight pins relative to the other seven, or
over one of four pairs. The tone is started and stopped with the F1
soft key which displays as RUN or STOP accordingly.
Press the soft key SETUP (F3) to change the tone and the pin, or pin
pair, that the tone is played on. Press the soft key APPLY (F2) for
your changes to take effect.
Autotest
Fig 33
SignalTEK NT can be set up to run a
predefined range of tests when the yellow
Autotest button is pressed on either the
Near-End or Remote Unit. The range of
tests is set from SETUP>TESTS>AUTOTEST
by ticking the check boxes next to your
choice, Fig 33. Press the soft key APPLY
(F2) for your changes to take effect.
Fig 34
When an Autotest is run, Fig 34, the display lists the tests that are
applicable to the current mode from the list that you selected at
Setup and shows the status of each. After the Autotest is complete,
or has been stopped, each individual test can be selected and its
detailed results displayed.
In Cable mode, Autotest is limited to Wiremap.
