Analyze Test Descriptions and Availability
For an overview of individual tests, refer to Chapter 7, Cable Testing
Fundamentals. The individual tests you can run depend upon the cable being
tested. Test availability is pre-determined based on the adopted or proposed
standards (See Chapter 4, Test Suites, Table 4-1).
Test Setup
1. If the LANTEK tester has not been calibrated in the past 7 days, perform a
field calibration (See Chapter 3, Calibrating the Tester).
2. Configure the tester as required (See Chapter 3, Configuring the Tester).
Note: The tester retains the last used configuration settings. You will need to set
configuration options if one or more parameters have changed.
3. Select the Cable Type (See Chapter 3, Changing a Cable Type).
4. Disconnect the cable to be tested from all network equipment.
5. Connect adapters and patchcords to both the Display and Remote Handsets
using the connectors.
6. Connect the Display Handset patchcord to one end of the link and the Remote
Handset patchcord to the opposite end.
Note: Refer to Chapter 7, Figures 7-3 and 7-4, for connections to complete Permanent
and Channel Link testing.
7. Power up the Display Handset by pressing the On/Off key.
Note: The Remote Handset will be powered up automatically by the Display Handset
when the Analyze testing begins.
