Black Box CLM5000 manual Using the Cable Length Meter, 2.Factory default values, ohms/feet

Chapter 4: Using the Cable Length Meter

3.Press the SET LEN (LEN = Length) key, and the Set Length screen (Figure 4-2) appears. In this mode, use the UP/DWN keys to adjust the larger digits to match the length of the sample wire (100–200 ft. range). If the sample wire is 150 feet and its resistance is equal to 0.315 ohms, the smaller digits on the left-hand side of the screen will display “0.0021 ohms/ft. (150 feet/0.315 ohms = 0.0021 ohms/ ft.)

4.To store the new value, press the SET LEN key for approximately 1.5 seconds. The unit generates a confirmation beep. The new 12 AWG length coefficient of 0.0021 ohms/feet will be stored in memory in place of the factory default of 0.0017 ohms/feet.

NOTE: Restoring Factory Default Values. To restore factory coefficients back to their original values, hold the UP/DOWN keys and the Power key down at the same time when powering down the unit. Any previous values stored by the user will be deleted from memory. Table 4-2 lists the factory default values.
