Coaxial Cabling (MICROSCANNER PRO)
Note: This feature is available in the residential
version or when using the COAX upgrade kit.
MICROSCANNER measures the full length of a
50 and/or 75 (Ohms) coaxial cable, e.g. RG-6
and identifies its termination state.
1. Attach the supplied COAX adapter to the
MAIN jack (identified on the unit right above
the modular 8 jack).
2. Connect the cable to be tested to the COAX
adapter jack.
3. To display the length screen, press the
MODE key until the word LENGTH appears
on the screen. The overall cable length will
be shown.
If the coaxial cable is not terminated at the far
end, the word Open will be displayed.
If a shorted cable is detected, the words FAULT
and Short will be displayed, and the length
where the short has been found.
