Safety Instructions

The KE7200 / KE7100 may only be operated with the accessories

originally provided. Using the device with accessories that are not original

or for applications for which it was not intended can lead to incorrect test

results and may damage the device.

The relevant safety regulations in VDE 0100, 0800 and 0805 must be

observed.

The use of cables other than those provided can damage the

device. The device should not be connected to high voltage

sources such as AC power circuits. Kurth Electronic assumes no

liability for damage resulting from improper use.

Never open the device. There are no parts in the device that need

to be serviced or calibrated. To change the battery, open the

battery compartment. See the instructions in Appendix A.

The tester is protected from splashing water and dust by the front

covering. It is not water-tight, however.

Never pull unnecessarily on the device’s cables. To hang it up, use

the eyelet in the device and the provided strap.

For end-to-end cable testing, only use the KE7010 test remote that

was supplied or which can be ordered.

same size

Battery life with a good quality battery

(such as a GP Super Alkaline or Varta Industrial)

Measurement always with the illuminated display

- Powered on with no testing: approximately 40 hours

- Cable test without remote: approximately 35 hours

- Cable test with remote: approximately 18 hours

- IP test: approximately 15 hours

The available testing time can be extended by turning off

the device or limiting the display lighting time.

Note: Testing is continuous. Different durations may

result with batteries of different quality. Only use

batteries from the same manufacturer with the same

capacity. Remove the batteries if the device will not be

used for a long time. If the battery compartment is

damaged by leaking batteries, it can be exchanged.

Using the KE7200 / KE7100

Keypad

When the KE7200 / KE7100 was developed, emphasis was placed on

fast and easy operation. For this reason, the KE7200 / KE7100 has only

seven buttons despite its many test options.

ESC

Similar to a PC, the ESC button means “undo the last step.”

ON/OFF

Button for turning the device On and Off. This button has a delay of

approx. 1 sec. when turning off.

Four arrow buttons

The arrow buttons are for menu scrolling UP▲ /DOWN ▼and LEFT◄

/RIGHT►.

SEL button

The SELECT button. Press this button to select a function or start a test.

Similar to a PC Enter key.

Test settings

Wiring (Main menu>Setup>Wiring)

You can select from the list of different possible types of wiring (which pin

to which wire). This can even be changed during the cable test. It is

important to precisely specify the correct type of wiring because a

Pass/Fail result relies on it. The proper identification of errors in the case

of split pairs also requires a precise definition.

Sixteen popular versions are predefined. The following abbreviations are

used:

UTP = Unshielded Twisted Pair in a cable

STP = Shielded Twisted Pair in a cable

CR = cross connected cable

Velocity (Main menu>Setup>Velocity)

This is the propagation velocity (VP) of the signal in the cable expressed

as a fraction of the speed of light. This information is necessary to
