K-Test
Use this function to find the approximate distance
to a resistance fault when both wires in a single pair
are faulted at the same place, and a separate good
pair or a single loop conductor is not available.
Resistance Check
Before you start the K-Test measurement, use the
Resistance function to measure the resistance from
both sides of the pair to the reference conductor.
The resistance faults must be common to the
reference conductor.
One fault must be at least twice as “heavy” as the
other fault (e.g., 5kΩ is twice as “heavy” as 10kΩ).
The sum of both faults must be at least 100 times the
loop resistance of the pair (for instance, if the loop
resistance is 50Ω, the fault sums must be 5k
Ω
or
greater).
The K-Test first makes a measurement with the far-
end “open” (the strap disconnected).
And then repeats the measurement with the far-end
“closed” (the strap connected).
You may choose to use a “far-end switch” to open
and close the far-end. The 3M KM Box Model 1162
is recommended for this application. The 965DSP
will automatically send tones on the blue and yellow
leads to communicate with the 3M KM Box (far-end
switch).
The far-end can be manually opened and shorted
during the test. However, be aware of timeout issues
that may occur.
K-Test Setup
The K-Test Setup screen is identical to the RFL
Setup screen. Press the [Setup] key to change the
gauge or temperature.

Open Far-end
Start the K-Test by opening the far-end.
Connect the red lead to R2, the wire to the heavier
fault (lowest resistance value). Connect the green
lead to R1, the wire with the lighter fault resistance
(the highest resistance value).
Connect black to the reference wire (either the shield
or another conductor in the cable).
If you are using a far-end switch (3M KM Test
Switch Model 1162) to open and close the far-end,
you should also connect the blue and yellow leads to
the pair under test. Also, connect the far-end switch
to the pair under test at the far-end access point.
Press the [Enter] key to start the test.
If you are using a far-end switch, the 965DSP will
automatically send a command to the device to open
the far-end.

K-Test Hookup: Close Far-End
The 965DSP will display the following screen if it
does not detect any hook-up errors during the “Open
Far-End” test.
The “Open Ratio” value displayed on the screen
is the ratio of R1/(R2+R1) times 100. This value
is used by some companies as part of the K-Test
measurement. It is not needed to actually calculate
the distance to the faults.
Note that the above screen indicates that the fault
resistances (R1 and R2) are OK!
If you are using a far-end switch, the 965DSP will
automatically send a command to close the far-
end. If you are not using a far-end switch, you or
somebody should manually short (or “strap”) the far-
end before you continue. Press [Enter] to continue
the K-Test.

ISDN Datalink (supported countries only)
The 965DSP has an integrated 2BIQ Echo
Canceling Adaptively Equalized ISDN transceiver
which conforms to the ANSI T1.601 standard.
2B1Q ISDN is sometimes called “National
Implementation” or “NI1” ISDN in North American
countries. It is sometimes called “Euro-ISDN” in
Europe and other countries.
Note: The 965DSP will not detect older ISDN
formats (such as ATT AMI, NT AMI, etc.).

ISDN Error Test (supported countries only)
The 965DSP can perform a near-end and far-end
block error test after linking to an active ISDN line.
.
Note: This function is suppressed in countries
where ISDN interoperability with the 965DSP
Block Error Test has not been verified.
The 965DSP will count and display the number of
near-end and far-end errors.
“Near-end” errors are the errors detected at the
965DSP. “Far-end” errors are errors detected at an
ISDN line card. (The far-end count is transmitted to
the 965DSP over the ISDN link.)
The screen displays the elapsed time since the start of
the ISDN Error Test. Standard practice is to monitor
the line for a fixed period of time (for example, 5 or
15 minutes) and count the number of errors.
Near-end and far-end errors are “blocks” of bit
errors. If there are no block errors in a given period
of time, this insures there will be no bit errors in the
same period.
The 965DSP will automatically stop counting errors
after 15 minutes.
The word “Link” will be displayed as long as the
965DSP is linked to the ISDN line. If the link is lost,
the screen will display “Link Lost.”

ADSL Modem (/ADSL option only)
965DSP models which include the ADSL modem
function are identified by the /ADSL option on
their Welcome screens. The Welcome screens for
the 965DSP/ADSL and 965DSP/SA/ADSL are
shown below.
Use the ADSL modem feature to establish a link
with a DSL Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) in the
central office or remote cabinet and determine the
ADSL data rate that the pair will support.
The internal ADSL modem in the 965DSP
complies with international standards such as
G.DMT (ITU G.992.1 Annex A), G.Lite (ITU
G.992.2), and ANSI T1.413 II. It will connect with
DSLAM’s that are similarly compliant.
Connect the red and black leads to the pair.
The ADSL modem in the 965DSP is used as
the customer premises equipment (CPE). Data
directions are referenced as Upstream and
Downstream. Downstream is the direction from the
DSLAM to the CPE (965DSP). Upstream is the
direction from the 965DSP back to the DSLAM.

Press Status key to display more ADSL modem
connection information.
ADSL Status
The 965DSP displays all of the available information
about the ADSL modem connection on three
separate screens. The Status screen displays the
line and channel operational data. ADSL data can
be carried on a fast channel (maximum speed, but
no data correction) and an interleaved channel
(lower speed, but more data integrity). Although
both channels can exist on the same connection, in
practice only one is used. The type of channel is
selected by the DSLAM. The 965DSP displays the
data rate of this channel as well as other performance
data for both data directions as indicated below.

DSLAM modem manufacturer information is
displayed if available, but this feature is not
supported by all service types or manufacturers.
The 965DSP displays ‘unknown’ in this field if the
DSLAM manufacturer information is unavailable.
FEC, CRC, and HEC counts in each direction are
also displayed. FEC is the number of Forward
Error Correction events in each direction. These
are automatically corrected errors, and as such they
do not require re-transmission of data. CRC is the
number of Cyclic Redundancy Check errors detected
in each direction. These numeric checks indicate that
the ADSL data frame had one or more uncorrected
errors, so the data must be re-transmitted reducing
throughput. HEC is the number of Asynchronous
Transfer Mode (ATM) cell Header Error Correction
events detected in each direction. ADSL normally
carries data in ATM format to remain synchronous
with data on the network. For the modem in the
965DSP, dummy 53-byte ATM data cells are inserted
to maintain proper timing with the DSLAM. The cell
header field integrity is checked separately since it
directs the data cell to its destination, and errors in
the header can cause the loss of an entire data cell.
Press the Alarms key to display more ADSL
modem connection information or the Status key to

LOS indicates a Loss of Signal alarm. This means
that the ADSL received pilot tone power was 6dB
or more below its reference power. Pilot tones do
not carry data and are used for line synchronization.
LOF indicates a Loss of Frame alarm. Loss of
Frame occurs when the expected ADSL framing
bit sequence is not detected indicating a loss of
synchronization.
LCD FAST indicates an ATM Loss of Cell
Delineation in the Fast mode. Cell boundaries must
be maintained for proper ATM synchronization, and
this alarm indicates that the cell beginning and end
location have been lost.
LCD INTR indicates an ATM Loss of Cell
Delineation in the Interleaved mode.
LOM indicates a Loss of Margin. This means that
the measured signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) was
below the required SNR as set by the DSLAM.

81
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The ADSL Graph presents a graphic display of the
number of bits transmitted in each ADSL Discrete
Multi Tone (DMT) frequency bin. ADSL modems
require wide bandwidth to operate since they
essentially use 256 separate simultaneous modems,
each requiring about 4kHz of bandwidth called a
bin. Each of these mini-modems transmits complex
symbols (‘baud’) at 4000 symbols per second. Each
symbol represents from 0 to 15 encoded bits of
information. The number of encoded bits in each
symbol depends on the SNR of the modem bin.
A significant decrease in the number of bits per
bin can result from ADSL signal attenuation or
increased noise.
Examining the bits per bin can indicate the presence
of interfering signals in certain frequency bands of
the ADSL spectrum. To identify the bin number, bin
center frequency, and bits per bin, use the [LEFT]
and [RIGHT] arrow keys to position the cursor
on the graph. The upper left box displays the bin
number (1 – 256) at the cursor position. The upper
right box displays the number of encoded bits (0
– 15) transmitted in the selected bin. The lower box
displays the bin center frequency in kilohertz.
ADSL Results Save
You can save all of the results of an ADSL Modem
test for later upload to a computer (see ‘ADSL

The date and the time display the 965DSP “system
clock.” See the “Set Clock” section on page 12 for
further information on setting the clock, and also for
information on the format of the date and time.
Use the blue keys to enter an alphanumeric ID. The ID
may have up to fourteen characters. Because there are
not enough keys for all twenty-six letters, each of the
number keys (except “1”) also function as letter keys
for ID entry. Whether a number or letter is entered
depends on how many times the key is pressed. As an
example, if the Ohms key is pressed once, the number
“3” will be displayed. If the same key is pressed
twice, the letter “d” will be displayed, three times
for the letter “e” and four times for the letter “f”.
When the desired number or letter is displayed, press
any other key to insert the next number or letter.
This will cause the previously entered characters to
move to the left making room for the new character.
If the same key needs to be used multiple times in
a row (i.e. to enter the sequence ‘ABC2’), press the
[Up] arrow to insert multiple spaces to the left of the
cursor. Use the [Left] arrow to position the cursor
under the first space and enter the first character,
and then use the [Right] arrow to move the cursor
under the next space. Insert the next character and
use the [Right] cursor again to position the cursor
to the next position. Continue entering numbers or
letters in this manner until all have been entered. If
you enter more than 14 characters, the first entered
character will be discarded. To change or delete any of
the characters that have been entered, use the [Right]
or [Left] key to move the cursor under the letter to be
changed or deleted. To delete the character, press the
[Down] key. To change the character, press the key of
the new character once (for a number) or several times
(for a letter). Once the ID has been entered, press
the [Enter] key to save the current ADSL test results
unless the User Info option (see User Info Setup page
19) is enabled. If User Info is enabled, you will see
another edit screen as shown below.

both fields. The data entered into each field will
remain present for every saved result until explicitly
changed or cleared. In this way information that is
infrequently changed (Tech ID for instance) does
not need to be re-keyed every time. These two fields
are appended to the ADSL Results when they are
printed or stored in PCLink.
At least 40 ADSL test results can be saved. The
percentage of remaining memory for results storage
is shown in the box at the top of the screen. The
number of saved TDR or Autotest results does not
impact the number of ADSL results that can be
saved.

Use the [Up] and [Down] key to change the parameters
for the control selected.
Individual controls and their parameters are described as
follows:
Length:
100 ft, 200 ft, 500 ft, 1 kft, 2 kft, 5 kft, 10 kft, 20kft,
30 kft
(30m, 60m, 150m, 300m, 600m, 1.5 km, 3 km, 6 km,
10 km)
Length allows you to set the distance (or span) from the left
side of the screen to the right side. The left side of the screen
is usually at the test set, and the right side is the furthest
distance that can be displayed with the length selected.
Filter: is Out, is In
Filter allows you to switch in a filter to remove noise. You
should use the filter if you see noise on the display. Note:
Switching in the filter may make it difficult to detect
small events on the cable.
Pulse Width:
5 ns, 34 ns, 235 ns, 1600 ns
Pulse Width allows you to select the width of the pulse
sent out on the pair. The 965DSP automatically chooses the
best pulse width for each length selected. Note that you can
change the pulse width independent of length.
Use a shorter pulse width to give better resolution of events.
A shorter pulse width will not go as far on the pair.
Use a wider pulse width to see further on the pair. Note that
the resolution of a wider pulse will not be as good as a
shorter pulse.
Pulse Width is also displayed at the top right of the display.

Gain: 0db, 6db, 12db, 18db, 24db, 30db, 36db,
42 db, 48db, 54db through 198 db - for a
total of 34 gain settings.
Gain allows you to select the vertical gain of the
TDR. Higher gain will make events look taller on the
screen and is helpful for finding small faults. The
gain settings are selected as a db level.
Vp (Velocity of propagation): 0.50 to 1.00
(75 to 150 m/uS)
Vp allows you to adjust the velocity factor
(“propagation velocity”) of the pair or cable.
Different cable types have different values of Vp.
To get the most accurate distance, Vp should be
set to the exact value for the cable being tested.
Vp is displayed at the top left of the screen.
Note: Vp can be displayed in m/uS (see Units
Setup on page 10 for more information).
The following is a list of approximate values for
several cable types and gauges:
PIC:
19 AWG
22 AWG
24 AWG
26 AWG
0.69 (108 m/us)
0.68 (102 m/us)
0.67 (100 m/us)
0.66 (99 m/us)
JELLY-FILLED:
19 AWG
22 AWG
24 AWG
26 AWG
0.66 (102 m/us)
0.65 (97 m/us)
0.64 (96 m/us)
0.63 (94 m/us)
PULP:
22 AWG
24 AWG
26 AWG
0.69 (103 m/us)
0.68 (102 m/us)
0.67 (100 m/us)
Water in cable will increase the value of Vp. If the
cable has water in it, distances will appear shorter
than they actually are.

Zoom: x1, x2, x4, x8, x16
Zoom allows you to set the horizontal gain of the
TDR. Higher Zoom will spread out the trace and
make it easy to identify the start of an event.
Move Cursor: [Left] [Right]
Use the [Left] [Right] arrow keys to move the cursor
across the screen. The distance from the 965DSP
to the cursor is always shown in the center of the
distance bar. Always place the cursor to the left side
of an event to determine distance to the event.
Note: Always subtract the five foot length of the
test leads from the distance measurement for
highest accuracy.
Distance Bar
Start
0
1525 ft
3000 Stop
The “Start” and “Stop” numbers shown in the
distance bar are the distances from the test set to the
left and right side of the screen.
The Stop distance may be different from the Length
selected due to the screen resolution.
The Start and Stop distances are also affected by
zooming and panning.
Panning
If you move the cursor to the right side of the screen,
the screen will “pan” or move to the right.
If you move the cursor to the left side of the screen
(and the start distance is greater than 0 feet or
meters), the screen will “pan” to the left.
Vertical Offset
If the cursor is moved to a position on the TDR
trace that is out of viewing range (above the top
of the screen or below the bottom), the trace is
shifted up or down to bring it into view. The
x axis (horizontal) will not move. The vertical
offset will be maintained until the cursor is moved
to another point

that is out of viewing range or until one of the display
controls is changed. This is demonstrated below. The
first screen shows the TDR trace before vertical offset.
The next screen shows the TDR trace after offset.
The vertical offset function affects all modes except
Memory.
Event Recognition
“Events” are the “dips” and “peaks” seen on the
screen caused by faults or changes in the pair.
102
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
‘Peak’ Events
Launch Pulse: The first peak on the screen is the
“launch pulse” which occurs where the 965DSP connects
to the test leads (at a distance of 0 feet or meters). The
distance to the cursor includes the five foot length of the
test leads.
Open: A clean or partial open will show up as a peak
on the screen. The “cleaner” the open, the taller the peak.
A complete open will be the tallest peak (other than the
launch pulse).You can not see events past a complete
open.
Load Coil: A load coil looks very similar to an open. If
you think there is a load coil on the pair, use the 965DSP
Load Coil function (in the Toolbox) to verify its presence.
You can not see events past a load coil.
‘Dip’ Events
Fault: A resistance fault will show as a dip on screen.
The lower the value of resistance, the lower the dip.
Short: A short (or zero-Ohm resistance fault) will show
up as the lowest dip on the screen.You cannot see events
past a short.
Bridge Tap: A bridge tap will look like a resistance fault
and an open. (A dip followed by a peak.) The distance
between the two events is the length of the bridge tap.
The start of a bridge tap looks like a resistance fault. Use
the 965DSP Resistance function to measure the resistance
on the pair. If there is no resistance, and you see a dip
followed by a peak, you might suspect a bridge tap.
TDR Save
You can save only the active “Single Trace” TDR
screen. First, select the TDR control parameters so the
screen appears as desired. Press the [Save] key (camera
icon). The 965DSP will display the Save Results screen
as follows:
103
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The date and time displayed is the 965DSP “system
clock.” See the “Set Clock” section on page 12
for further information on setting the clock and for
information on the format of the date and time.
Use the blue keys to enter an alphanumeric ID. The
ID may have up to fourteen characters. Because there
are not enough keys for all twenty-six letters, each of
the number keys (except “1”) also function as letter
keys for ID entry. Whether a number or letter is entered
depends on how many times the key is pressed. As an
example, if the Ohms key is pressed once, the number
“3” will be displayed. If the same key is pressed
twice, the letter “d” will be displayed, three times
for the letter “e”, and four times for the letter “f”.
When the desired number or letter is displayed, press
any other key to insert the next number or letter.
This will cause the previously entered characters to
move to the left making room for the new character.
If the same key needs to be used multiple times in
a row (i.e. to enter the sequence ‘ABC2’), press the
[Up] arrow to insert multiple spaces to the left of the
cursor. Use the [Left] arrow to position the cursor
under the first space and enter the first character, and
then use the [Right] arrow to move the cursor under
the next space. Insert the next character and use the
[Right] cursor again to position the cursor to the next
position. Continue entering numbers or letters in this
manner until all have been entered. If you enter more
than 14 characters, the first entered character will be
discarded. To change or delete any of the characters,
use the [Right] or [Left] key to move the cursor
under the letter to be changed or deleted. To delete
the character, press the [Down] key. To change the
character, press the key of the new character once (for
a number) or several times (for a letter). Once the ID
has been entered, press the [Enter] key to save the
current TDR trace information unless the User Info
option (see User Info Setup page 19) is enabled.
If User Info is enabled, you will see another edit
screen as shown:

data entered into each field will remain present for
every saved result until explicitly changed or cleared.
In this way information that is infrequently changed
(Tech ID for instance) does not need to be re-keyed
every time. These two fields are appended to the
TDR trace results when they are printed or stored in
PCLink.
At least 200 TDR or mixed TDR/Autotest records
can be saved. The percentage of remaining memory
for results storage is shown in the box at the top of

Level Trace
Use this function to measure and display the AC
impedance of an inactive pair as a function of
frequency. This test can be used to analyze a pair
for loading and bridge tap problems. The result is
displayed on a graph with relative impedance level
displayed on the y-axis (in dB) and the frequency on
the x-axis. Attach the red and black test clips to the
pair to be analyzed.
A normal, unloaded line would appear as a slowly
decreasing line. Bulges or dips may indicate the
presence of load coils.
Use the [Right] and [Left] keys to move the cursor
across the graph. As the cursor is moved, a readout
of the signal level and frequency will be displayed
beneath the graph. A value of -3.53 dB corresponds
to an impedance of 600 ohms at that frequency. 0 dB
indicates a short-circuit and a large negative value
corresponds to an open circuit. If part of the graph is

Autotest Save
You can save all of the results of an Autotest. After
an Autotest has completed, press the [Save] key
(camera icon) to save the results. The 965DSP will
display the Save Results screen as follows:
The date and time display the 965DSP “system
clock.” See the “Set Clock” section on page 12
for further information on setting the clock and for
information on the format of the date and time.
Use the blue keys to enter an alphanumeric ID. The
ID may have up to fourteen characters. Because
there are not enough keys for all twenty-six letters,
each of the number keys (except “1”) also function
as letter keys for ID entry. Whether a number or
letter is entered depends on how many times the
key is pressed. As an example, if the Ohms key is
pressed once, the number “3” will be displayed. If
the same key is pressed twice, the letter “d” will
be displayed, three times for the letter “e” and four
times for the letter “f”. When the desired number or
letter is displayed, press any other key to insert the
next number or letter. This will cause the previously
entered characters to move to the left making room
for the new character. If the same key needs to
be used multiple times in a row (i.e. to enter the
sequence ‘ABC2’), press the [Up] arrow to insert
multiple spaces to the left of the cursor. Use the
[Left] arrow to position the cursor under the first
space and enter the first character, and then use the
[Right] arrow to move the cursor under the next
space. Insert the next character and use the [Right]
cursor again to position the cursor to the next position.
Continue entering numbers or letters in this manner
until all have been entered. If you enter more than 14
characters, the first entered character will be discarded.

To change or delete any of the characters that have
been entered, use the [Right] or [Left] key to move
the cursor under the letter to be changed or deleted. To
delete the character, press the [Down] key. To change
the character, press the key of the new character once
(for a number) or several times (for a letter). Once
the ID has been entered, press the [Enter] key to
save the current Autotest information unless the
User Info option (see User Info Setup page 19) is
enabled. If User Info is enabled, you will see another
edit screen as shown below.
Edit the Tech ID and Job Number using the same
procedure described previously. Up to 14 alphanumeric
characters can be entered in each field. Use the [Tab]
key to jump between highlighted boxes. Use the
[Setup] key to clear both fields. The data entered
in each field will remain present for every saved
result until explicitly changed or cleared. In this way
information that is infrequently changed (Tech ID for
instance) does not need to be re-keyed every time.
These two fields are appended to the Autotest results
when they are printed or stored in PCLink.
At least 200 Autotest or mixed TDR/Autotest records
can be saved. The percentage of remaining memory
for results storage is shown in the box at the top of the
screen.

Talk Set
This function allows you to use the 965DSP as a
Talk Set on active pairs or to send DTMF tones on
inactive pairs.
Connect the red and black leads to the pair for lines
using Loop Start. Also connect the green lead to
ground on Ground Start lines.
This screen displays the last number dialed, the DC
voltage on the line, and the signal format for dialing.
The blue keys become number keys in the Talk Set.
Use the [Setup] key to change the Dial or Start mode
or to select and edit a stored phone number (see Talk
Set Setup page 136).
Use the [Tab] key to switch between on-hook and
off-hook.
Use the [Enter] key to dial the number in the display.
You may also manually enter numbers and they will be
sent out on the line. You may also get a stored number
from memory (see Talk Set Setup page 136) and then
send it.
Note: Pulse dial can only be used “on-hook.”
Use the [Right] arrow key to turn the microphone
on and off. Use the [Up] and [Down] arrow keys to
adjust the volume. The maximum volume is limited
in the Talk Set function to prevent unwanted feedback
(squealing).

Care and Maintenance
Battery Pack
The 965DSP uses a Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery
pack. Typical life of the battery pack is two years.
To change the battery pack: 1) Loosen the six screws on
the battery compartment door and remove the door.
2) Remove the old pack. 3) Unplug the battery connector.
To install a new battery pack: 1) Plug in the battery
connector. 2) Place pack in the battery compartment.
3) Replace the door and tighten the screws.
Caution: Battery may explode, leak or catch fire
if exposed to high temperatures or fire. Recycle or
dispose of properly. To prevent injuries or burns, do
not allow metal objects to contact or short circuit the
battery terminals.
Note: NiMH batteries may be recycled.
Charging
The battery pack must be charged on a regular basis.
You can typically use the 965DSP for up to 12 hours
between charges. The time between charges may be
reduced if you use the backlight frequently, use the
optional /SA or /ADSL features heavily, or if you
work in very cold weather. Charging time is 4 hours
MINIMUM. Recommended charging time is overnight
(12 hours). When the battery is charging, a charging
indicator appears when you turn on the 965DSP.
If the battery does not appear to charge fully after an
overnight charge, simply disconnect the charger, wait
a few seconds until the charging indicator disappears,
and reconnect the charger.
Level of Charge
The battery icon in the upper right of every screen
indicates the battery charge. Four black bars in the icon
indicate full charge. Zero black bars indicate the battery
pack is very low and should be charged immediately.
A warning screen appears when there are only five
minutes of charge left. Charging efficiency is best with a
temperature between 50°F (10°C) and 86° F (30°C).
Note: Do not charge the batteries at temperatures
below 32°F (0°C) or above 104° F (40°C).

AC Charger
Use the AC charger to charge the NiMH Battery
pack. Plug the AC cord into the AC charger and into
a power outlet. Plug the DC cord into the 965DSP.
Make sure that the key on the plug fits properly
into the slot in the connector. The AC charger is
meant for charging the NiMH battery pack only.
Do not use the AC charger to power the 965DSP
during normal operations.
DC Charger
Use the Cigarette Lighter Adapter to charge the
NiMH battery pack from a vehicle’s battery. This
adapter is meant for charging the NiHM battery
pack only and should not be used to power the
965DSP during normal operations.
IR Port
The IR Port at the top of the 965DSP is used for
downloading new software or uploading test results
or TDR traces to a PC or printer. A separate IR
adapter cable is available as an option for each
application. Refer to ‘Stored Results’ (page 30) for
directions to print or upload results.
Battery Holder
The plastic battery holder that comes with the
965DSP uses six “AA” alkaline batteries (alkaline
batteries are not included).
Use alkaline batteries only when the NiMH battery
pack is discharged and the AC adapter is not
available. Typical lifetime of the alkaline battery
pack is twenty hours of normal use (less if you
use the backlight frequently, use the optional /SA
or /ADSL features heavily, or work in very cold
weather). There is no battery icon displayed if
alkaline batteries are installed.
Note: The battery holder has protection against
accidental charging of alkaline batteries.
The alkaline battery pack is installed the same way
as the NiMH battery pack.

Test Leads
The 965DSP comes with a red/black test lead pair, a
blue/yellow test lead pair, and a separate green test
lead.
The red/black and green test leads are used for most
measurements. The blue/yellow lead pair is used
with some TDR modes, and the yellow lead is used
with RFL. The shorting “strap” that comes with the
965DSP is used with RFL.
Keep the test leads clean and dry at all times to
ensure best accuracy of the measurements. Use soap
and water to clean them if necessary.

Self-Test Board
A self-test board is included with the 965DSP to
verify the performance of Opens and RFL. This
is particularly important if operating conditions
(shock, temperature, etc.) have changed and you
want to check the unit's accuracy.
Check Opens performance: To verify Opens, connect
the red test lead to the “R” terminal, and the black test
lead to the “B” terminal. Press the [Opens] key on the
965DSP. You should see the following readings for
different types of cable (US and Canada).
Note: Do not connect the green test lead to the “G”
terminal of the self-test board when checking Opens
performance. The ‘Red to Green’ measurement will
not read correctly.
