Overview
NF-8601 Series are newly developed by our company which are
capableofanti current interference . The equipment is composed of
three parts: main tester (NF-8601-M), receiver (NF-8601-S) and
remote identifier (NF-8601-R). It is a multifunction device, capable
of measuring cable length, cable tracing, cable continuity testing,
PoE and PING functions, also it can detect voltage presence. Users
can read the test results visually from the 3.7 inch color screen. All
these make this item be as a practical tool for low voltage system
installation and maintenance technicians of communication circuits
and comprehensive wiring circuits. It is widely used in the fields like
telephone system, computer networks and other metal lead circuits.

(4).Cable Length---Pairing and length measurement: verify cable length,
open circuit distance and pairing, crosstalk.
(5).PoE---to test if a network cable is connected with PoE switcher or PoE
Router, and then detect the power of every cable.
(6).Setting---to set up language/ Lighting/ lighting time/ auto-off time/ theme/
system information (version No.),ect.
Charging function
The power supply for main tester and receiver are both 3.7V Rechargeable
battery, its capacity is 1800mAh. When finish charging, the main tester can
work continuously for over 20hs, receiver can work for over 50hs. The
rechargeable battery avoids the trouble of replacing 9V battery again and
again. The whole standard charging devices are included. After charging,
please disconnect the charging device, otherwise it would shorten the
battery life.

a.Cable line-to-line test ( eg: Network cable):
After entering main menu, move the cursor button to cable on-off test.
Then press OK; at this time, choose network cable, press OK, it
will enter into test the network cable menu. And after that, choose START
and connect the RJ45, the result will show you directly; but you also can
export the data and the tested result will into the TF card, the following
interface is shown indicating test is in process:
Test result 1: Unload or the cable not connected well
If the cable not inserts the main tester interface, it will show you this:
At this time, press to return to the main menu, and then press “ENTER”
key for re-test.
Test result 2: Short circuit
If there is short circuit with the cable and terminal, it will show as below:
(Short circuit with 3 and 6)
At this time, press to return to the main menu, and then press “ENTER”
key for re-test.
Test result 3: correct connection
If the device connects corrected, the tester can check remote identifier (R),
or local port (S) cables. If Verify the tested cable with remote ( R) or local
port (S), it can test STP network cable , and the picture will show you as
below :
R = Remote identifier's foot for RJ 45
S= Local foot of RJ45 port for scan
M= Local foot for RJ45 main interface
G = STP network cable
If you press it means back to the last menu and press OK means test
again or back to the main menu for re-test.
Test result 4: open circuit (Local test)
When local test and meet open circuit, it will show as below:
In the figure, “X” shown in “3” position, indicates there is open circuit.
Note: Because network cable is made of pair cores, if there is open circuit,
it will show faults in pairs, just as above "4" &" 5". it means either "4" pin or
"5" pin exists an open circuit, or both "4" and "5" exist an open circuit.
Test result 5: open circuit (Remote test)
In the figure, “X” shown in “4” and “5” pin position, indicates there is open
circuit in “4” and “5” pin of the remote pin.

Test result 6: Crossing (out of order )
When the cables have cross situation , it will show you as below :
Test result 7: Short , Open , Cross
If the cables and remote meet short , open and cross together , will show you
this result : ( 2 is short , 4 and 5 open , 7 and 8 was crossing ):
Test result 8: Continuity test for CAT6
It's the same result with Network cable test , picture will show you as below:
Test result 9: Continuity test for 6 pin RJ11
The 6 pin RJ11 should insert into the telephone interface and the test method
and show result is the same with RJ45.
Test result 10: Continuity test for BNC cable
When you test the BNC cable , you should insert into the BNC interface and
the test method is the same with RJ45.
Remote unit with tone when checking wiremap
When use remote unit to check wiremap, users can distinguish the test
result firstly via tones. When the cable is normal, the remote unit will
generate “ beep ” long and slowly.
When the cable is abnormal, the the remote unit will generate “ beep ” short
and quickly.
Attention 1: The line sequence test just for more than 2 pairs of cables , it's
useless for single cable.
Attention 2 : When line sequence test with 1 to 8 , any pin among them of
#7 or #8 for the network cable , any pin among them of #1 or #6 for the
telephone cable or P/4C , 6P/2C , And for BNC cable testing , there is no
any prompt of the remote.

Special Use: network detection
Our this main tester can test line sequence under the switches work on.
Network cable as the example---One side connect the main tester's RJ45
interface and the other side connect the switches , then you can press the
test button directly , if the connect is right , will show you as below ( when
the switches is 8 cores )。
But if the tested switches was open of 1 and 2 , the show result picture show
you (when the switches is 8 cores).
Attention:
This test method just fit for RJ45 open or continuity , can't test cross and
short.
b.Cable length test:( eg: Network cable)
After entering main menu, move the cursor button to Cable length
test. Then press OK; at this time, choose network cable, press OK, it will
enter into test the network cable menu. And after that, choose START and
connect the RJ45 port “M” , the other side connect nothing , the result will
show you directly; but you also can export the data and the tested result will
into the TF card, the following interface is shown indicating test is in process:
They are 5 items for your choose:
1.Unit---can set up Meter , inches , yard.
2.Calibration---Can calibrate any brands of cables.
3.Parameter callout---Can take out the date you saved into the device.
4.Derive---Can derive out the data which you have tested of the cable length.
5.System set up---Can set up each parameter in the system.
Attention 1 : You can not connect the local port ( S) , and also can't connect
the remote ( R) , when you test the cable length . you just connect nothing
with the other side.
Attention 2 : Due to different technical parameters with different branded
cables, users are recommended to use dynamic calibration function of the
equipment before measuring length (Refer to the related chapter for more
details.).
Attention 3 : If there is a very big disparity between the cable , for the
network cable In order to line 3 cable length is the Shall prevail ; line 4 for
the telephone cable ; 2 line for the BNC cable.
Attention 4 : Just use to test 2 or more than 2 cables length , not for the
single one , when you just test 2 cables which with open , the device will
show you the cable length , and this data is the Breakpoint location.
