Cable tester has API for control via external programs
Keywords:cable tester? application programming interface? API?
The API provides a library of software primitives used to exercise control over all basic functions of the tester. This permits engineers to embed the tester's function within a larger system that may include electrical cable lockdown, label printing equipment, pass-fail marking devices, diverter gates and automatic molding equipment. Engineers may write their own fully custom user interface for special, simplified applications like a touch screen display.
The CableEye tester checks cables and wire harnesses for opens, shorts and miswires. The tester measures diode forward voltage; checks resistance values over the range of 0.3 to 10M, and tests conduction and isolation resistance against specified thresholds.
The CableEye Model M3U cable tester is priced at $2,195 for 152 test points and is expandable to over 2,000 points. The API option adds $495 to the system price for a site license. Availability is from stock.
