Triplett CTX10 User manual

  • Hello! I'm your chat assistant. I've read the user manual for the Triplett CTX10 Coaxial Cable Tester. This manual explains how to test coaxial cable connections, featuring open/short testing, cable mapping with 4 color-coded terminals, and F adapter. I'm ready to answer any questions you have about its features, operation or specifications.
  • What type of cable can this device test?
    What does the testing include?
    What should I do before testing?
    What is the power source for this device?
    Is it possible to test cable through the connection of splitter?
CAUTION:
For correct testing, please remove all devices from the two end of the coaxial cable
before the test. The tester can only test one complete cable; it is not able to test the
cable through the connection of splitter.
This device is designed to test the connection of F type coaxial cable. The testing includes
continuity and cable mapping. The tester includes 4 mapping terminals with different color
and a F type adapter, which are very helpful for cable identification.
