17 Test Lead Compensation
Test lead compensation is required for some of the copper tests so as not
to affect data accuracy, since test lead characteristics have some impact on
copper test results (mainly resistance, capacitance, and TDR tests). Test
lead characteristics vary with respect to cable temperature.
The
Test Lead Compensation
routine allows you to perform resistance
and capacitance compensation. The page displays the
Pass
/
Fail
status of
the last compensation done.
Note:
For greatest accuracy, perform a test lead compensation before a new test
session with the FTB-1 unit.
To access Test Lead Compensation:
1.
