Test Type Configuration Tips
It is not advisable to perform a Resistance test on pairs that have not been checked for VDC
because the TALAN applies DC Voltage to perform the Resistance test. Therefore, when you
select a Resistance test combination that has a pair that is not going to get tested due to the
current TEST TYPE selected for VDC TEST TYPE, the TALAN will automatically change the VDC
TEST TYPE to the same TEST TYPE as you selected for the Resistance TEST TYPE. A warning
message will be shown reminding you that this change automatically occurred to the VDC TEST
TYPE.
For example, assume you do the following:
Set VDC TEST TYPE to Balanced Pairs
Then set Resistance TEST TYPE to All Pairs
The TALAN will automatically change VDC TEST TYPE to All Pairs.
A Warning Message will appear.
However, the TALAN will allow you to select a lower set of pairs for VDC once the Resistance
TEST TYPE is set.
For example, assume you do the following:
Set Resistance TEST TYPE to All Pairs,
Then Set VDC TEST TYPE to Balanced or None.
The TALAN will permit this change, because it assumes that your selection is based on
knowledge of the state of the wires/pairs, however a Warning Message will appear.
