Short
– The pair has a low resistance connection from one wire of any pair to another wire in any pair in
the cable or shield. A short with remote attached is indicated by the FAIL icon being on and flashing X’s
in the appropriate pin position of the second display line.Error messages listing all the pins shorted
together will also be displayed. In the PRETEST mode (no remote), all error messages will be displayed.
Miswire
– Single or multiple conductors are not connected to the same pins at both ends of the cable.
With a remote attached, the wire map shows the pin numbers from display line 1 (main) to
display line 2 (remote). A reverse pair is a special case of a miswire in which the pair is wired to the cor-
rect pair of pins, but the two conductors are reversed. In PRETEST (no remote), this type of error is not
detectable.
