Updated Cable Test Product
OMNIScanner2 is capable of meeting new Category 6 permanent link and channel measurement requirements. Full vector correction is now applied to Category 6 link adapters so their effects on link measurements are eliminated. The company's patent-pending Adaptive Vector Cancellation (AVC) technology is fully enabled in this software release. COAX cable measurement technology through an OMNICoax Adapter was added to the latest release.
The OMNIScanner2 has a removable Flash Card data storage system for test results and configuration data. With the software release, productivity gains can be achieved by storing and managing test results and configuration data on the Flash Cards. The flexibility to change a Flash Card and keep on testing or even supply actual field test results on Flash Cards to customers or "testing supervisors" makes this new data storage scheme a boon to productivity. The product has the fastest data download capability currently available in field cable testers with its Universal Serial Bus (USB) port and supporting software.
The product tracks the number of tests run by each individual link adapter. OMNIScanner2 localization has been extended to access the Brazilian market with inclusion of Portuguese localization. Portuguese was added to five other resident languages in the user interface. Further, Kanji and Simple Chinese certification report output capability was added to Scanlink version 6. Other user interface enhancements include: Windows 2000 support, updated link limits compatible with the latest standards, an updated OEM cable library, selectable worst margin/worst case viewing and reporting, custom test limit line definition capability, and support for full 32 character file names.
