2, 3, 4, ...8 (Yellow) Wire 2, 3, 4, ...8
Short (Red) Short condition between wires, or between shielding and center of BNC

connector.cable are detected.

Connected or 25 Ohm (Green) A straight-through connection cable is detected. Or a

standard Ethernet 10Base2 and 10Base5 terminated with 25 Ohm cable is detected.

Non-parallel or 50 Ohm A non-straight-through connection cable is detected. Or an

Ethernet 10Base2 and 10BAse5 cable with one end termination value (50 Ohm)
is detected.

No connection/no terminator (Yellow) No cable or terminator is scanned.
Battery good/battery low (Yellow/Green) It shows the battery status. If LED is green
