Shield Test: This setting shows only when you select a

shielded cable type. If you selected a shielded cable type,

select On for this setting.

Test Limit: The test limit specifies the limits for

measurements so that the tester can give a PASS or FAIL

result to the test. The TEST LIMIT screen shows the last 10

limits that were selected.
If you do not see the correct test limit, tap MORE, tap the

name of a group, then tap a test limit.

Store Plot Data: If Store Plot Data is Off, the tester does

not save plot data for frequency-domain tests or for the

HDTDR/HDTDX analyzers. You can see the plots before

you save the test and exit the results screen. If Store Plot

Data is On, the tester saves plot data for frequency-domain

tests.
Make sure that Store Plot Data is On. If it is not, tap the On/

Off control.

HDTDR/HDTDX: This setting lets you see results from the

HDTDR

and HDTDX

analyzers only when a test gets a

FAIL or PASS* result, or after every Autotest. The analyzer

results help you locate the causes of FAIL and PASS*

results. These tests are not required by any test limit. To

see these results, select All Autotests.

Outlet Configuration: This is the wire map for the cable.

The Test Limit you select determines which Outlet

Configurations you can select on the OUTLET CONFIG

screen.
If the correct outlet configuration does not show, tap Outlet

Configuration. On the OUTLET CONFIG screen, tap the

correct configuration, then tap USE SELECTED.

AC Wire Map: This setting lets you do tests on links

connected through midspan PoE (Power over Ethernet)

devices. For this tutorial, make sure this setting is Off.

2-5 On the TEST SETUP screen, tap SAVE.

Tests” on page 71.
