the same location. Usually, but not always, 
these cables are less than 25ft in length, and 
are not installed in a wall or ceiling. Since both 
ends are accessible, one end can be plugged 
into the Main unit, and another end into the 
Remote unit. It is not necessary to remove the 
Remote unit from its docked position on the 
Main unit.   

4. Testing Installed cables:

To test cables installed in ceilings or walls, or
in applications that prevent the ends from
being in the same location, the Remote can be
detached from the Main unit. Once detached,
the Remote can be attached to one end a
cable, and the Main unit attached to the other
to the other end of the cable. These ends are
often in different rooms and on different floors
of a building.

5. Performing the Test:

Once the Remote and Main unit are attached
to the ends of the subject cable, as described
in 6.3 and 6.4 ,testing may begin, simply press
and release the test button on the Main unit,
observe the LED indicators, and note the
beeping sound that comes from the Main unit.

6. Interpreting the Results:
6.1 Battery Good Indicator:

The “BATTERY GOOD” LED should light 

whenever the test button is pressed and 
released. It will stay in for a minimum of 10 
seconds, or for however long the test button
