PRO 2 LT – LENGTH CONSTANT EDIT MODE
Follow these instructions to set the length constant based on a known value (for example, as given by the cable manufacturer).
Pro 2 LT stores a separate length constant for each of the three cable types (voice, data, and video).

PRO 2 LT – DETERMINING LENGTH CONSTANT
Follow these instructions to set the length constant based on a sample cable of known length. For best accuracy, the sample cable
should be 50 ft. or greater.
Cut or obtain a length of cable of the same type you would like to measure.
Measure the cable using standard methods (pad
printing on the cable or a tape measure).

PRO 2 LT – CHANGING UNIT OF MEASUREMENT
I
F
G
The screen will show "METERS" or "Ft." momentarily, then
show the length measurement in the unit selected.
Ft. unit readings have no decimal place and are displayed as "0 Ft.". Meters unit readings have one decimal place and are displayed
"0_0" for 0.0 meters. Length constants are displayed in pF/ft. or pF/m depending on the selected unit measurement mode.
Length Constant = 15.0pF/ft.
Length Constant Display Mode
Length Constant = 15.0pF/ft.
