CABLE TESTER CT100
1. Introduction
Congratulations! With the CT100, you have purchased an indispensable
tool that enables you to easily check the most common cables used
by musicians and sound engineers. Faulty cables are a common cause
of failure in live and studio situations. This microprocessor-controlled
device was designed to ensure fast, reliable problem location. Various
test modes and the included belt clip add to its flexibility.
2. Cable Tester Mode
◊ ◊
Move the ON switch to the CABLE TESTER position.
Insert one end of your cable into any OUT jack of the CT100. Connect
the other end of the cable to any IN jack. The LEDs will indicate
which input pins are connected to each output pin. Additionally, the
GROUNDED SHIELD LED indicates whether a XLR OUT jack's shield is
connected to the pin 1/sleeve signal.
2.1 How to test intermittent connections
The following method allows you to detect intermittent connections
caused by wire breaks or faulty solder points. While in CABLE TESTER
MODE, press RESET to store the current cable-wiring display and to clear
the INTERMITTENT LEDs. Move the cable vigorously in all directions
and watch the LEDs. Any change in wiring or break in the signal flow
will cause the LED of the corresponding input pin to light up. The LED
will stay lit until RESET is pressed again, assuring detection of even the
shortest breaks in the signal flow. It is a good idea to repeat the test
after resetting the LEDs to double-check the initial results.
3. Installed Cable Tester Mode
This mode enables you to test cables in fixed installations or situations
that don't allow you to connect both ends of the cable to the CT100.
◊ ◊
Hold down the RESET button while moving the ON switch to
the CABLE TESTER position. The ON LED will blink to indicate
that the CT100 is in INSTALLED CABLE TESTER MODE.
