SCREEN FUNCTIONS
A.
Length Indicator: Displays length of cable being measured. Blinking
dashes mean the cable length or total capacitance has exceeded the
maximum limits of the unit. When using a preset value, this will update
every 5 seconds. When in “User” Mode, this will update every 1 second.
B.
Active Cable Preset Icon: Displays the selected preset cable
value or “User” Mode.
C.
Ready Icon: When lit, indicates that the unit is ready to take a length
measurement.
D.
Short Icon: Indicates whether the cable being tested has a short.
E.
Unit of Measurement: Indicates the unit of measurement (feet or
meters) currently being used to display the measurement. To switch
between metric and imperial units, hold the UP and DOWN arrow
keys for one second.
F.
Voltage Icon: When lit, indicates that a voltage is present in the cable
being tested. The unit is disabled when this icon is lit. Immediately
disconnect the unit from the cable and disconnect the cable from the
voltage source. NOTE: The absence of the “Voltage!” symbol DOES
NOT necessarily mean that there are 0 volts on the line.
G.
Capacitance per unit length constant: In “User” Mode, the pF
constant will be displayed. Use the UP or DOWN arrow keys to adjust
this value.
H.
Battery Indicator: This will fl ash when the battery drops below 6V.
Replace the battery at this point.
