M4 CableEye Enhanced System 2
» CableEye systems overview
» DownloadsBenefits
- The enhanced cable tester with resistance (2-/4-wire) and capacitance measurement.
- Cable lenght, distance to break, Twisted-Pairing measurement.
- Supplies test documents with detailed test results for quality management.
Enhanced test system: 152 test points, expandable to 1024. Capacitance and twisted-pair measurements. USB interface.
With the CableEye cable testers and harness testers, find defective or miswired cables instantly before they damage equipment or waste valuable technician time. CableEye cable testers and harness testers have a unique, patented graphic wiring display to visually pinpoint problems when wiring errors are detected, and offer one-second pass/fail testing for production environments. Quickly locate intermittent connections and identify their position in the cable. Expand CableEye to over 2000 test points for large cables and wiring harnesses, and measure cables of up to 4000 feet in length.
Choose from a wide variety of plug-in connector boards to mate with most standard cables, and easily mount custom connectors for unusual applications.
The easy-to-use software can be set up for one-button operation to speed production testing. Unskilled operators need only to press the TEST pushbutton on the fixture to trigger an involved test sequence set up by the quality control engineer, with results automatically logged to disk for later analysis and report generation.
The enhanced M4 can also measure cpacitance and twisted-pair.
- The enhancedsystem for 152 test points, expandable to more than 1024. USB interface.
- Continuity test:
Detects open lines, short circuits and miswired cables.
Pass/fail test with a 'known good' sample.
Locate intermittent connections and identify their position in the cable. - Measurement of resistance:
With the M4 (as well as the M3U) tester, set two resistance thresholds, one for good connections down to 0.3 Ω, and one for isolation up to 10 MΩ. Measure embedded resistors and resistor networks, check the orientation of diodes, and measure diode forward voltage - Store full cable documentation.
Print out cable wiring diagrams.
Print labels.
Log and print error protocols. - Visualize cable wiring: Automatically draw schematics from measured cable connections. Compare cables. Easy testing of cable leads.
- Plug-in connector boards, easy to install, for various connector types like BNC, RJ45, D-sub, ribbon cable/IDC and many more.
- Connects to the PC via USB.
- Additional for the M4:
Resistance (4-wire Kelvin).
Capacitance.
Cable length.
Distance to break.
Twisted-Pairing measurements.
