Autotest Results for Twisted Pair Cable

To see detailed results from a test, use DUto highlight the test on the main Autotest menu; then press E.

Note

The tests run during an Autotest on twisted pair cable depend on the test standard selected. Tests not applicable to the selected test standard are not run or displayed. For a list of tests applicable to various test standards, see Table C-1 in Appendix C.

Wire Map Test

The wire map test tests and displays the wire connections between the near and far ends of the cable on all four pairs. Shield continuity is also tested if a shielded cable type is selected and you have not disabled shield testing in SETUP. The pairs tested are those defined by the selected test standard. Table 3-1 shows examples of wire map displays.

If the wire map test passes, the Autotest continues. You can view the wire map test results when the Autotest is complete. If the wire map test fails, the Autotest halts and the wire map screen appears with the word FAIL. You can then save the wire map results by pressing S. To continue the Autotest, press $Continue Test.
