Structured Cable Field Calibration and Testing<br />

Step 3<br />

‣ Connect the RJ45/66 Block adapter to one end of the DH RJ45 patchcord.<br />

Note: If field testing a TIA-568A connection system, use a T568A calibration adapter.<br />

If field testing a TIA-568B connection system, use a T568B calibration adapter.<br />

‣ Insert the other end of the DH patchcord into the DH unit, leaving the block<br />

adapter connection open-ended.<br />

‣ From the DH Field Calibration screen, select START, or press AUTOTEST to<br />

perform the third calibration process.<br />

Step 4<br />

‣ Press AUTOTEST on the RH to perform the fourth calibration process.<br />

‣ If calibration is successful, the DH will briefly Display “Calibration Complete” and<br />

the RH will briefly display the PASS light. The handsets and the patchcords are<br />

now ready for testing procedures.<br />

‣ If calibration is unsuccessful, the DH will briefly display either a Warning screen<br />

displaying “No Remote Handset” or a Calibration Failure screen.<br />

AUTOTEST AND SINGLE TEST FOR STRUCTURED CABLE<br />

AUTOTEST SUITE OVERVIEW<br />

Autotest is the easiest and quickest way to measure and verify your cable installation.<br />

When the AUTOTEST key is pressed, the <strong>LANTEK</strong> tester automatically performs a<br />

series of pre-programmed tests. These test suites are pre-determined based on either<br />

adopted or proposed standards as well as specific parameters. After all tests have<br />

been completed, the tester displays a single overall pass/fail result and individual test<br />

pass/fail results.<br />

Autotests are performed with the Display Handset (DH) and Remote Handset (RH)<br />

connected at opposite ends of the cable under test.<br />

Test Suites<br />

Tests run during an Autotest depend on the cable type selected.<br />

Autotest can be preset to automatically save test results immediately following each<br />

suite of tests, or results can be saved and printed manually. To preset these functions,<br />

see Autotest Preferences.<br />

Individual sub-tests can be selected and viewed with more detailed data following<br />

completion of the Autotest using the Autotest Results screen.<br />
