1 INTRODUCTION
This Operating Manual is intended to help the user in operating
Cable Fault Locator KMK 8 explaining the operation rules. While following
the instructions as given below, it is recommended to use the demo
program found on the CD inside the carrying case. Running the demo
under WINDOWS will show you the front panel of the instrument with
display and keyboard. By clicking with the mouse on the keyboard, the
“virtual” KMK 8 will behave as the real instrument, helping the user to
carry out complete measuring procedures, but of course only “virtually”.
1.1 Application
KMK 8 hand-held small size instrument is intended to test the quality of
telecom cables during installation and to locate cable faults. That
combined instrument provides the followings:
• Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR)
• Active bridge for comfortable automatic, and accurate DC, AC
fault location and resistance, capacitance measurements on lines
with only small interference voltages
• Passive Wheatstone bridge for DC, AC fault location and
resistance, capacitive measurements on lines with heavy interfer-
ence voltages
• A voltage measurement module for measurements of AC and DC
interference voltages at cable systems.
• Voltage meter module to measure the DC and AC interference
voltages on the line
• Warning and information-systems continuously informing the user
about interference voltages to ensure the best measurement
accuracy.
• Remote control system for the far end loop closing device
