Results of testing a good coax cable, No.5 (Green) Coax Terminator
being used; screen displays as:
1. “PASS” shown on the first line and Coax
(RJ45) mode also shown on first line;
2. On the third line, the remote number and
color code are displayed;
3. When a Remote Terminator is
connected, no length information
will be displayed on the screen.
(when measuring the length of a
coax cable, no remote should be
used, see screen#L-10 of LENGTH
mode)
Results of testing a coax cable without a F-Connector Terminator
attached; screen displays as:
1. “FAIL” shown on the first line and the
Coax (RJ-45) mode;
2. On the third line, “Open” is shown
Note: the eight specially numbered and
color-coded F-Connector Terminators
must be used in conjunction with Coax
cable test mode.
Results of testing a shorted cox cable; screen displays as:
1. “FAIL” shown on the first line and the
Coax (RJ-45) mode;
2. On the third line, “Short” is displayed;
LENGTH Mode - Description (1)
• Measuring cable length by measuring its capacitance and using the capacitance
per unit of length (length constant) to calculate the length.
• Connect cable to the Main unit (with or without the presence of a Remote at
the other end).
• Press any key to turn on the Tester, press MODE, scroll through and select
LENGTH mode, press SELECT key to enter (see Screen #L-1)
• Use Up and Down arrow keys to select type of cable (M12- 2 pair
data cable, M12>RJ45 for M12 to RJ45 cable, RJ45 for 4-pair data
cable or Coax (RJ45) for coaxial cable) to test (see screen #L-2),
press SELECT to proceed with cable length measure.

Adapter and any one of the eight color
coded
Coax Terminators
must be
attached on the other end to perform test.
