CableMaster 200
The CableMaster 200 has a single button for operation. With this you can start
tests and select all other functions and options. Depending on how long the button
is pressed (less than 1 sec. or more than 1 sec.), different functions are called up:
1. Cable Test (short key press): Briefly pressing the key of the switched off
CableMaster 200 starts a cable test, “Test” appears on the display. The result
is displayed. If the button is briefly pressed again another test is started. When
not in use, the CableMaster 200 switches off automatically after approx. 20 seconds
(unless the device is in LOOP mode). If the button is held down until “LOOP”
appears on the display and then released, continuous tests are performed and
the result display is updated.
With a long continuous button press, the endurance test is stopped and the
mode selection is called up. If the “LOCATE”-Mode is selected and an ID Remote
is connected instead of the Wiremap Remote the CableMaster 200 displays the
number of the connected ID Remote.
Possible display options are:
− “Open”: Connection to the Remote is interrupted
− “Pass”: The test was successfully executed
− “Short”: Short circuit between one or more pairs
− “Split”: Wrong laying of the wires within different pairs
2. Mode Selection (long key press): Long press of the button of the switched on
CableMaster 200 calls up the mode selection. The cable test and tone generator
modes are displayed one after the other. The mode displayed when the button
is released is executed. The modes appear in the following order when the
CableMaster 200 is switched on:
• OFF: If the display shows “OFF” and the button is released at the same time,
the CableMaster 200 switches off.
• LOOP: Cable test in continuous mode until the test is terminated by a long button
press or the mode selection is called up.
• LOCATE: Detects network map-only ID remotes #1 - #5. This mode is not used
to test cables but is used only to map the location of the jack that the far end is
connected to using the map-only ID remotes. For testing cables use the master
remote stored in the bottom of the tester.
• Hi Lo 1, Hi Lo 2, Hi, Lo (four tone patterns): The next four modes are tone
generation modes with different sound patterns. “Hi Lo” tone sequences are
transmitted in two frequencies of different lengths. “Hi” and “Lo” only have one
frequency at a time. By briefly pressing a key in one of the sound modes, the
pairs of wires that are affected by the sound signal change. The corresponding
pins are displayed.
• CABLE: The same cable test is performed, as with a short push-button action.
