Downloading New Test Standards

When new test standards are available, you can download the standards from
Fluke’s LAN Products BBS or web site to your PC, then use DSP-LINK to
download the standards to your test tool.

Cautions

Downloading new test standards erases all test result
data stored in the test tool’s memory. To save stored
Autotest or Single Test results, upload the results to a PC.

To prevent an unexpected loss of battery power to the
test tool, connect the battery charger to the test tool
during the downloading process.

To download cable standards from the BBS or web site to your test tool, proceed
as follows:

1.

Copy the test standards file from the BBS or web site to a PC. The file is
compressed and self-executing.

2.

Execute the file to expand the data. Expanding the file creates a file with a
.SDB extension.

3.

Connect the test tool to the PC and configure the serial ports as described in
the earlier section “Preparing for Data Transfer.”

4.

In the DSP-LINK window, click on Test Standards Update.

5.

If you want to save the Autotest reports stored in memory, click on no in
response to the next dialog box. Save the reports by uploading them to the PC.

If you do not want to save the stored reports, click on yes.

6.

Enter the path and file name of the expanded (.SDB) test standards file.

7.

Click on OK.
