TB 29. The test instrument is suitable as a network-enabled line tester for determining the wire se- quence. Displays in various sections show how the wires are assigned. The instrument also has additional interfaces for testing as many lines as possible. They include: the BNC jack for testing coaxial cables and the RJ11 jack for testing phone cables, for instance.

TB 29 19 GERMAN GERMAN ENGLISH Operating Switching on: Switch on the instrument with the On/Off button. Keep the button pressed until a beep is heard and the display comes on. Self-test: A self-test can be carried out with the enclosed line. For this, attach the RJ45 line to the RJ45 jack of the transmitter and to the RJ45 jack of the receiver. Then switch on the in- strument and start a test by pressing the “TEST” button. The following image shows that the instrument is ready to use:

Assignment: To check the assignment of a line, attach the line to be tested at the transmitter and at the matching jack at the receiver. Pressing the “TEST” button indicates the assignment on the display. Correct wiring should reveal the same result as in the previous self-test. IMPORTANT: Wire “9” is the shield in a network cable test. If there is no shield- ing, then “UTP” is indicated on the display and no Wire “9” is shown. If shielding is present, then “STP” is readable and Wire “9” should appear on the display.Operating 20 Testboy

TB 29 The following appears when there is a short-cut between two wires (e.g. Wires 3 and 4):

The following is shown, for instances, if individual wires are interchanged: In this example Wires “3” and “6” have been interchanged. Presentation is such when, for instance, wires are completely missing or interrupted: It is clear from this example that the transmitter has not received any feedback signal from the receiver for Wires “3” and “6“. Probable is either an inadequate contact or a ca- ble breakage.Operating Testboy
