Ohmmeter Test
Check the continuity of the cable run between the KSU and digital or electronic telephone
with an ohmmeter.
➤ To perform the ohmmeter test
1. Disconnect the DSS console, electronic or digital telephone.
2. At the MDF, place shorting jumper wires between the A and B of pair #1 (green-red),
the A and B of pair #2 (black-yellow) and the A and B of OCA pair #3 (blue-white), for
PEKU/PESU only. (For MDF pin numbers, See Chapter 4 – DK40 Universal Slot PCB
Wiring.)
3. At the modular block, measure the resistance between all wire combinations. The
proper readings are shown in Table 9-3 for digital telephones, DDSSs, DDCBs and
Table 9-4 for electronic telephones and HDSSs.
4. An improper reading indicates an open, crossed or shorted wire. See “Power Supply
Replacement” on Page 2-21
