Two worst tested parameters will be displayed on the result summary screen. Press the

4.2.1.1

 

The Tone Generator mode 

Starting from v8.0, unless when performing a Single-Ended cable test, WireXpert will automatically 

switch to Tone Generator mode when only one end is connected and the 

[AUTOTEST]

 button is pressed. 

WireXpert will be able to perform audible cable detection when paired with a Softing CT15 Tone 

Generator.  
When faced with multiple unlabeled open-ended cables, connect one end of the cable to WireXpert. 

Point the CT15 Tone Generator to the other end of the cables. CT15 will produce a different tone when 

the cable that is connected to WireXpert is detected.  
The Tone Generator mode can also be triggered by pressing the 

[TOOLS] 

button

Quick Settings provides quick selection using predefined TIA (CAT 5e/6/6A) and ISO (Class D/E/EA/F/FA) 

configurations for UTP/FTP cables. WireXpert will detect if Channel or Permanent Link adapter is used 

and changes its test limits automatically.
