6. Иштөө нускамалары

6.1. Cable Tracing / Line Finding

This function is used to locate a specific cable among a bundle or to trace its path.

1. Connect one end of the cable to be traced to the appropriate port (RJ45, RJ11, or BNC) on the Transmitter unit.
2. Turn on the Transmitter and set the SCAN switch to 'SCAN'.
3. Turn on the Receiver unit.
4. Use the Receiver's probe to scan along the cable path or through the bundle of cables.
5. When the Receiver detects the signal from the Transmitter, it will emit an audible tone. The tone will be strongest when the probe is directly over the target cable. Adjust the volume on the Receiver as needed.
6. For noisy environments, use the provided headphones with the Receiver.

6.2. Тармак кабелинин узундугун өлчөө

The NF-308 can measure the length of network cables up to 1000 meters with an accuracy of ±3%.
