shows a FAIL for the overall result. Identify and correct the
problems with the cable and do the Autotest again.

Figure 20. PASS* and FAIL* Results
WIRE MAP Tab
The WIRE MAP tab shows the connections between the ends of
the cable under test. The tester compares the connections to the
selected Outlet Configuration to get a PASS or FAIL result.
If the wire map test fails, you can continue or stop the Autotest.
Or, you can tap SCAN ON to do the wire map test continuously
while you look for the fault. To continue the Autotest after you
correct the fault, tap SCAN OFF, then tap CONTINUE.
If you leave then return to the WIRE MAP FAIL screen, the SCAN
ON button goes away. To see the button again, tap TEST AGAIN.
You can also select the continuous wire map test as a single test
from the TOOLS menu. See “Continuous Tests” on page 70.
Figures 22, 23, and 24 show examples of wire map screens. For
information on AC wire map screens, see Chapter 4.
