CHAPTER 6: Diagnostics

Wires are shorted:

Wiremap finds shorts in cable.

In this example, the wiremap indicates that wires 4-5 are shorted. Use the number on the left side of the screen to find the exact location of the short. For example if 36 ft is displayed, the short can be found 36 feet away from OMNIScanner.

Split Pairs:

If a cable is wired correctly, pin-to-pin, but there is a split pair, Wiremap displays Split Pairs and highlights the pins in error.

In our example, one wire from the 4-5 pair is twisted with one wire in the 7-8 pair. The Split Pair will be highlighted with reversed numbers.

The message SPLIT PAIRS will be displayed below the Wiremap.

Press ESC to exit the WIREMAP screen.
