Tester
Basics
Duplicating the Adapter Setup
Duplicating the adapter setup for a test is required in order to keep test results consistent. If you
retrieve a test program from memory, you
must
install the adapters in the same positions defined
when the test program was created.
When you begin a new test, the
adapters can be placed in any
available position.
When you recall the same test from
memory,
the adapters must be
inserted in the original positions.
Can’t remember where the
adapters go?
Don’t worry. If you saved the test
program, the original positions will be
displayed in the tester (see
“Adapter
Signatures” on page 16
)
, or on the
documentation used for the test.
Pins, Nets, and Net Lists
The word
pin
is generically used in this manual and in the tester interface to describe an
individual contact or terminal in a connector.
An interconnection between two or more pins in a cable is called a
net.
When the tester learns a
cable, it assigns each net in the cable a net number.
All of the nets for a cable make up a
net list.
In some Cirris products, the term
wire list
is used
interchangeably with the term
net list.
