Length

The Length function measures the full length of a

twisted pair or coaxial cable. Twisted pair: If you

are measuring standard pair length,

MICROSCANNER will determine whether the

cable is open, shorted, or connected to a hub.

1. Connect the cable to be tested to the MAIN

jack (identified on the unit right above the

modular 8 jack).

2. To display the length screen, press the

MODE key until the word LENGTH appears

on the screen. The overall cable length will

be shown.

No Cable attached

70 feet cable

If the far end of a cable is connected to a hub,

MICROSCANNER will display HUB and the cable

length. The cable is considered connected to a

hub when the 3 - 6 pair is terminated and either

pair 1 - 2 or 4 - 5 is terminated.
