Cable Test Training and Verification Adapter Board

29 February 2024 - CAMI Research released an updated training and verification adapter board with user's guide for its CableEye cable and harness test system. This multi-purpose CB-T2 fixture can be used for operator training, tester system verification, and facility verification. The CB-T2 is the default board included at no charge with all new systems and can be purchased separately. The CB-T2 fixture is a great way to familiarize new employees with CableEye test units during their orientation. Training may be self-directed with this tool.

Populated with a few common connectors, the board allows trainees to methodically experience how the system responds to opens, shorts, miswires, diodes, resistance, capacitance, and intermittent connections while at the same time learning to operate the equipment.

The adapter board comes with identification LEDs for each connector that may be used to show the trainee operator which connector they must connect.

Tester System Verification

As a system verification tool, the CB-T2 allows customers to verify the tester is working properly by quickly sampling the full spectrum of fault detection without use of example fault cables. The limitation of physical fault cables is that typically one example is needed for each fault. Use of the CB-T2 will provide a faster and more thorough verification process. The verification cable itself may be learned on first use, and loaded thereafter prior to going through a simple fault simulation procedure.
