BASIC TEST UTP: Move the cursor to BASIC TEST and press SELECT to test a UTP cable for length, opens, shorts, split pairs (plus distance to these faults) and wire map. BASIC TEST UTP is a quick test and does not perform LAN Performance Verification. Basic test results can be stored in Printer Memory.
NOTE: BASIC TEST UTP is often used when a cable fails to pass the LPV test. Or it is used to test
Figure 6-36. Press the down arrow button
after the UTP cable is connected.
Follow the instructions on the screen (plug the cable you wish to test into the LEFT jack). Only an uncoiled cable will give you the most accurate length measurement. At this point in the testing, the far end of the cable should not be connected to any device.
