Learning the NVP of a Cable

The FrameScope can determine the NVP (Nominal Velocity of Propagation) of a cable, for use in certification testing. NVP is expressed as a percentage of the speed of light. you must use a sample of the cable at least 50 feet (15 meters) long. Longer cable samples produce more accurate results.

To learn the NVP:

1Measure the length of a sample of the cable.

2Connect the cable sample to the FrameScope. Do not connect the DualRemote.

3On the Expert mode Tools menu (see page -134), press Learn NVP. The Learn NVP screen displays.
