About the Tone Function
The tone function provides tone for pair identification.
The
unit
can send
tone
for
two
hours
before
automatic
shut-off.
With the
TONE
key, you can apply precision tone to the
cable for
loss
measurements. With the 965/965M, you
can also apply tone of any user-entered frequency and
amplitude
for
loss
or
gain/slope
measurements.
For the specific tone output of your test set, see Section
Three, “Specifications.”
Caution
If hazardous voltage warnings are displayed when the test set is
switched on or reset (or at any time during the testing
procedure) follow standard procedures for de-energizing and
discharging cables.
