During this phase of testing, information about length, opens, shorts, split pairs, crosstalk, cable category, and speed is being gathered and computed. If there are no cable problems, testing continues until you are prompted to connect the Remote Probe and perform a wire map test. If all is OK, testing will finish (the “speed” screen is displayed).
NOTE: If there is a problem with the cable, the problem will be displayed, and testing will be halted. The problem must be corrected before testing can continue. See Appendix C for examples of cable failures.
Complete results are immediately available for Review and Saving after the test is completed. This “test now, review later” feature greatly speeds up the test process when you have multiple cable installations.
