4.1. Cable Test Schedule
The Cable Test Schedule displays all the individual cable runs associated
with the open job. For your convenience when testing, you can sort each
field in the Cable Test Schedule in ascending or descending order. To
sort the Cable Test Schedule, move the highlight to a cell in the column
to be sorted and press the
SORT
(F4) soft key. The column is sorted
first in ascending order. A second press sorts by descending order and
toggles between the two on subsequent presses.
To test a cable on the list, highlight the Cable ID you wish to test. Attach
that cable to the appropriate connector on the main unit. Attach the
remote unit to the other end of the cable you wish to test.
With the remote connected to the cable, the test function can be started.
Press
TEST
(See Figure 4.2). You will hear relays switching in the main
unit and remote. A link is established with the remote, and Validator-NT
begins testing the cable to the parameters that have been defined for its
type. If it is network cable, Validator-NT will perform full Signal to Noise
Ratio and Skew testing as well as Speed testing with a Bit Error Rate
Test (BERT) in approximately 23 seconds.
