Coax Remote Set P/N T120C

ID/MAP 19 video (coax) cables at one time. Numbered

custom F remotes 1 thru 19 for easy identiﬁcation.

Data Remote Set P/N T121C

ID/MAP 19 data (twisted pair) cables or data ports/

jacks at one time. Numbered custom RJ45 remotes

1 thru 19 for easy identiﬁcation.

Master Remote P/N T124C

The replacement Master Remote(s) can be used as

an extra Master Remote(s) when testing networks.

Map your network ﬁrst to help identify the extra

Master Remote(s).

Toner Cable P/N T125C

RJ45/Alligator

Use when shooting tone via the data port. Cable

conductors are terminated on contact #1 and #2,

so program your VDV MapMaster to shoot tone on

pair 1 and 2.

NO-Fault Cable P/N T126C

7.5” Special RJ12 to RJ12

The NO-Fault Cable uses no-fault RJ12 connectors

on both ends to assure no damage to the RJ45 jacks.

It is the ideal patch cable to use when mapping or

shooting tone.

RJ45 PortSaver P/N 21025

Extend the life of your tester by using the RJ45

PortSaver as your sacriﬁcial cable. This eliminates

the wear and tear from constantly plugging in and

out of the tester port.

MASTER REMOTE

The VDV MapMaster2.0™ Remote

designed for testing both Voice (RJ12/11)

and Data (RJ45) networks. Patch cables

can be tested without removing the

remote from storage.

NOTE: extra master

remotes can be

used simultane-

ously if mapping

is done ﬁrst so

each master

remote can be

identiﬁed.

ACCESSORIES

Additional accessories to help make testing easier.

Adjust the Length Constant Value:

The VDV MapMaster2.0™ has default length constant values for voice, video,

and data cables. These values, shown in Table 8, are common length constants

that apply to these cable types. You can adjust the length constant value

according to the speciﬁcations of the

cable you are testing.

NOTE: Bypass this section if the default

values (see chart to the right) stored in

the tester’s memory satisfy the length

constant values for the cables you are

measuring.

NOTE: The length constant value last set for each connector type (voice, video,

or data) is stored in the unit’s memory. If you have not adjusted the length

constant value for any or all cable types, the default values will be stored.

The length constant can be adjusted at any time.

1) When in Length Mode, press and

hold the LENGTH/TONE button until

“EDIT CAP” appears in the bottom

of the display screen. The following

updates listed below occur in the

display screen:

 •Theselectedconnectortype(voice,

data, or video) appears in the top of

the screen.

 •An“E”willdisplayintherightside

of the screen to indicate you are in

Edit Mode.

 •Thedisplayscreentogglesbetween

the current length reading and the length constant value.

2) Adjust the Length Constant value for the cable you are testing. In Edit Mode,

the VOICE and VIDEO Mode buttons function as Up and Down (yellow arrows

are denoted on the buttons). You can use these buttons to adjust the length

constant over a range of 10 to 40 picofarads per foot in 0.1pF/ft increments.

NOTE: While editing, the display screen toggles back and forth between

the length constant value and the measured cable length. You can edit the

length constant value when the length constant is displayed. Continuously

pressing the UP or DOWN buttons keeps the length constant on the display

screen. Toggling begins when a few seconds have lapsed after the last

button press.

You can also edit the length constant value while the measured length is

displayed in the screen. This is helpful when you know the length of the cable.

Press the UP/DOWN buttons while length is displayed in the screen. Continue

to adjust the length constant until the reading matches the known cable

length. The length constant is being updated as the length display is changing.

3) Select the LENGTH/TONE button again to measure the connected cable under

the parameters of the new length constant.

NOTE: If the cable’s capacitance is too large, dashes will display for the length.

Changing the connector type or exiting Length Mode will store the adjusted

length constant in the unit’s memory for the next test. Up to three length

constants can be stored, one of each connector type.

Length Constant Accuracy:

The length constant refers to the electrical parameter used to measure

length, in this case, the capacitance of the cable per foot or meter. Accuracy

is dependent on how close the instrument can be set to the cable constant

for the cable being measured.

The length constant can vary from cable to cable, of the same type produced by

the same manufacturer. It can also vary over the length of one cable because the

length constant is dependent on the physical properties of the cable, which may

not be consistent throughout the entire cable. The change in wire pair spacing

through the cable can vary the length constant along the length of the cable.
