Make a Custom Copper Cable Type
If a twisted pair or coaxial cable installation has a cable type that
is not in the list of types in the tester, you can make a custom
cable type for the job. A custom cable type has these settings:
 Custom cable name
 Standard cable type used for default values
 NVP (nominal velocity of propagation)
You can make up to 20 custom cable types. The tester keeps
custom cable types with the other cable types in the main
DSX-600 unit. The names of custom cable types have an asterisk
(*) at the start and end.
Use the values specified by the cable manufacturer to make the
custom cable type.
To make a custom cable type
1 On the home screen, tap the test setup panel.
2 On the CHANGE TEST screen, tap a copper test, then tap EDIT.
Note
You must select a test before you make a custom
cable type, but you can use the cable type in any
test that supports the category of the cable.
3 On the TEST SETUP screen, tap Cable Type, tap MORE, tap
Custom, then tap MANAGE.
4 On the MANAGE CUSTOM screen, tap the Create panel.
