Capacitance/Opens
Capacitance/Opens
The
Capacitance/Opens
test measures the capacitance of the loop and
calculates length. Capacitive balance is also measured when all pairs are
selected.
Snapshot
The capacitance/opens
Snapshot
shows measured
Capacitance
values and
Length
for each lead
combination. The parameters are as follow:
Current Group
is the current test group name, for
example
Multimeter
.
Current Test
displays the test being measured.
When FED is
Enabled
, the FED icon and numeric
state are displayed beside the
Current Test
.
Here you can switch to another test from the given
list. However, this action will terminate the
ongoing measurement test.
Note:
The accuracy of the
2 Terminal
Capacitance Measurement
is impacted by
the use of the FED, and the
3 Terminal
method is recommended to be used
instead.
Selected Pair
allows you to select
All Pairs
or a single wire pair for
measurement.
Cable Parameters
:
Cable Type
allows you to select a cable entry (with its associated
parameters) from the current Cable Book, to use for testing. The
selection is not saved when leaving the test. The current Cable
Book entry is shown by default.
Capacitance T-R
displays the capacitance value from Tip to Ring in
nF/mi ranging from 10.0 to 500.0.
