Black Box TS1003A, TS1002A, TS1000A-R5 manual Running an Autotest for Twisted Pair Cabling

OMNISCANNER

The Adapter field will automatically change to reflect the adapter that is currently attached. OMNIScanner auto-senses the adapter. If the adapter is changed, OMNIScanner will automatically adjust the content in the fields Autotest: and Cable: to reflect the new setup.

Every Project has certain Autotests and cables assigned already. These associated

lists will appear in the pop-up lists for each item. If the Autotest or Cable you want

to use is not in a pop-up list, open (Setup) to select the appropriate item.

(See Chapter 3, Setup: Autotest, Cable, or Project, for further information.)
