COAX CABLE TESTING: Move the cursor to coax cable and press SELECT to test a coax cable for length, opens, shorts (plus dis- tance to these faults). Wire map and toning is also available from this menu.

Coax cable test is a quick test and does not perform LAN Performance Verification. Test results can be stored in Printer Memory.

RJ-45/COAX ADAPTER: The Main Unit has a permanent COAX connector labeled “Coax.” The RJ-45/Coax adapter is used to connect the coax cable to the Remote Probe. Pins 1 and 2 of the Remote Probe’s socket are used to test the coax cable.
