different cables, plugs and raw cables.

In order to carry out a test, connect the cable in question to the relevant tester sockets.

The following test options are available:

- 3.5mm jack (TRS)

- 6.35mm jack (TRS)

- RCA

- XLR 3-pin

- XLR 5-pin

- Speakon 4-pin

- Speakon 8-pin

- USB-A to USB-B

- S-Video

- RJ45 (CAT)

- MIDI

- Banana

Using the measuring cables included it is also possible to carry out a quick, efficient continuity

check on individual wires.

SET-UP

INSERTING THE BATTERY

Turn the device over and open the battery compartment by removing the two finger screws.

Insert two AA batteries taking care to ensure the correct polarity as indicated. Now close the

battery compartment again.

Remove the batteries if the device is not going be used for some time.

CHECKING BATTERY CAPACITY

Set the slider switch to the ON position. The first red LED in the LED chain lights up. If this

LED shines brightly, the batteries are OK. If the LED light only shines faintly, the batteries are

nearly flat and should be replaced as soon as possible.

ON AND AUTO MODES

THE AHMCTXLV2 OFFERS TWO OPERATING MODES:

ON (manual mode): The individual contact connections can be specifically selected by

pressing the left/right buttons.

AUTO: In this mode, all connections are run through automatically in order.

CARRYING OUT A TEST

How to test a balanced standard 3-pin XLR cable:

In this cable type, the contacts are connected one-to-one at each end of the cable.

Connect the two cable plugs to the cable tester and move the switch into the ON position.

If the cable is OK, both the red and the green LEDs light up.This means that there is a con-

nection between Pin 1 at one end of the XLR cable and Pin 1 at the other end.

Now press the right-hand button to test Positions 2 and 3. Here again, the red and green

LEDs should light up accordingly. There are several ways of identifying a defective cable.

If for example the connection is interrupted at Pin 1 of the XLR cable, only one of the two

LEDs will light in Position 1. In the event of a short circuit between several pins, the first LED

in one of the two rows will light up at the same time as the second or third LED (or both) in

the other row.

It is also possible to test cables with different plugs, e.g. an XLR and a 6.35mm TRS jack

plug. To do so, simply connect one end of the cable to the left-hand side of the cable tester

and the other to the right-hand side. Then use the left/right-hand buttons to run through the

test positions and check the individual connections.

In order to be able to interpret the test results correctly, you must of course know which

pins are supposed to be connected to each other.

The figure on the next page shows a wide range of different balanced and unbalanced

cables with the relevant connections.

Once the measurement operation is complete, return the switch to the OFF position.

Note: In order to save the batteries, the device switches off automatically after 180 seconds

of not being used.

INBETRIEBNAHME

EINSETZEN DER BATTERIE

Drehen Sie das Gerät um und öffnen Sie das Batteriefach durch das Entfernen der beiden

Rendelschrauben. Setzen Sie zwei AA-Batterien ein, achten sie dabei auf die richtige Polarität

gemäß Kennzeichung. Verschließen Sie nun wieder das Batteriefach.

Wird das Gerät längere Zeit nicht verwendet sind die Batterien dem Gerät zu entnehmen.

PRÜFEN DER BATTERIEKAPAZITÄT

Setzen Sie den Schiebeschalter auf die Position “ON”. Die erste rote LED der LED-Kette leuchtet.

Wenn diese LED kräftig leuchtet, sind die Batterien in Ordnung. Falls die LED nur noch schwach

leuchtet, sind die Batterien fast leer und sollten schnellstmöglich ausgetauscht werden.
