Cable Length Meter 4.2 Pair SGL Key The Cable Length Meter can measure single- or two-conductor wires. Press the PAIR SGL key to toggle between single or two conductor. For single-conductor measurement, the unit is connected at both ends of the wire/conductor. For two- conductor measurements, the unit is connected one end of the wire and the other end of the pair is shorted (wire length = total resistance/2).

In this mode, use the UP/DWN keys to adjust the larger digits to match the length of the sample wire (100–200 ft. range). If the sample wire is 150 feet and its resistance is equal to 0.315 ohms, the smaller digits on the left-hand side of the screen will display “0.0021 ohms/ft. (150 feet/0.315 ohms = 0.0021 ohms/ ft.) 4. T o store the new value, press the SET LE

Cable Length Meter 4.3 Coax, Network, and Telco Modes Coax, Network, and Telco modes detect the distance to opens and the distance to shorts. The Cable Length Meter determines the length by measuring line capacitance when the line is open or by measuring resistance when the line is shorted. When measur- ing opens, use the UP/DOWN keys to adjust the capacitance coefficient (10 to 40 pf per feet) to calculate the cable length. The Cable Length Meter supports three user-adjustable length coef

Cable Length Meter Changing Opens/Capacitance Coefficient Using Set Length To change capacitance coefficients, follow the steps above (cable/wire must be open) based on the sample wire (100 to 200 feet). The Cable Length Meter measures the total capacitance of the cable and displays the value in the lower left- hand corner of the LCD (the cable must be within 10 to 40 pf per feet range, other- wise meter will indicate OL).
