shown on the LCD screen will disappear when the new value has
been stored.
5. Recall a stored value by pressing the Memory button until the
desired memory location is shown.
TESTING CABLE & DETERMINING LENGTH
Once a cable's NVP value has been set, the cable length can be determined
using Test Mode. As stated in Preparing to Test Cables, the cable to be
tested should be left open on the opposite end from the tester. A cable
terminated with an impedance closely matching the characteristic
impedance of the cable can produce inaccurate test results.
• Testing Cable:
1. Attach the cable to be tested as instructed in Preparing to Test
Cables section. Cables Cables
