| Specifications for the TS100 PRO |
| Maximum Length |
8,000 feet (2,438 meters) on certain cable types, 4,000 feet (1,220 meters) on most cable types, and 500 feet (152 meters) on cables with high loss. The tester shows -Err if the cable is too long to be correctly measured. |
| Representative Maximum Cable Length |
8,000 feet (2,438 meters): CAT-3 Twisted Pair 8,000 feet (2,438 meters): CAT-5 Twisted Pair
6,000 feet (1,830 meters): 12/2 AC Wire
3,000 feet (900 meters): RG-6/U TV Coax
1,500 feet (457 meters): RG-174/U Coax |
| Minimum Length |
No minimum length (can read a bridge tap at 0 feet/meters). Minimum non-zero reading is 2 feet or 1 meter. |
| Length Accuracy |
±2 feet (±0.6 m) for cables less than 10 feet (3 m)
±5 feet (±2 m) for cables longer than 10 feet (3 m) and shorter than 200 feet (60 m)
+/-3%+/-5 feet (±2 m) for cables longer than 200 feet (60 m) |
| Distance to Bridge Tap |
0 feet to 3,200 feet (975 meters) |
| Minimum Length of Bridge Tap |
10% of the distance to the bridge tap. Dependant on the cable characteristics. |
| Measurement Rate |
Maximum of 4 complete measurements per second, decreasing to 2 seconds per measurement based on cable size and uniformity. |
| VOP |
Adjustable from 20 to 99, saved in flash memory. |
| Test Technology |
Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) with 100 Ω drive impedance, 6v maximum pulse height. |
| Cable Type |
Virtually all two or more conductor cables. |
| Power |
4 AA alkaline batteries. |
| Reverse Battery Protection |
No damage to the tester will occur if the batteries are installed backwards. |
| Battery Life |
35 hours (typical) |
| Low Battery Indication |
LED display alternates between LO and bAtt when the battery voltage falls below 4.5v. |
| Maximum Output Voltage |
4 voltage peak |
| Maximum Isolation Voltage |
250 volts RMS |
| Voltage Measurements |
Range: 0 volts AC to 115 volts AC; 0 volts DC to ±150 volts DC
AC voltage ≥90 volts or DC voltage ≥100 volts causes high voltage warnings to show on the display |
| High Voltage Detection |
AC voltage detected to 115 volts; DC voltage detected to ±150 volts. |
| SmartTone® (5-tones) Range |
7,000 feet (2,134 meters) |
| Toner Range |
52,800 feet (16,093 meters) |
| Tone Injection |
Approximately 1 kHz at an amplitude of 80% of battery voltage. Variable frequency and cadence. Tone characteristics change as cable condition changes to “normal-open” from any other condition. |
| Impedance Range |
35 Ω to 330 Ω with auto-compensation within this range. Cables with impedances outside this range will not be properly tested and may produce erratic or incorrect readings. |
| Temperature Range |
Operating: 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C)
Storage: 32°F to 131°F (0°C to 55°C) |
| Humidity |
Operating: 20% to 80% relative humidity
Storage: 0% to 100% relative humidity |
| Operating Humidity |
80% maximum at 86°F (30°C )
50% maximum at 104°F (40°C ) |
