Certification of Network Installations
OMNISCANNER is designed to efficiently certify cabling installations
through its Autotest feature. Test results, test specifications, and cable
types are organized into Projects. The Project, its test specifications and
cable types are selectable from the OMNISCANNER Project screen.
OMNISCANNER contains a number of predefined projects, grouped by
test standards, to allow easy and fast operation.
The typical order of operations performed when certifying a cable
installation is as follows:
Preparation
Prior to initial certification, perform the following:
1. Run a self-test by setting the reference for OMNISCANNER and
OMNIREMOTE periodically, e.g. weekly.
2. Select the appropriate Project, Autotest specification, and Cable
type.
Certification
Perform the following for each installed cable to be tested:
3. Attach OMNISCANNER to one end of the link, which is typically at the
patch panel in a wiring closet.
4. Attach OMNIREMOTE to the corresponding outlet at the other end of
the cable link.
5. Run Autotest.
6. Save test results.
Completion
At the end of the day or shift, the test results are uploaded using
Scanlink Tools software.
Scanlink Tools support the following:
• Upload test results
• Storage of test results to files (Scanlink proprietary format)
• Print test reports
• Export results in CSV format
