Editing Cable Information

There may be a time when the Cable ID or cable information desired in the record is different than how it was saved by the technician when the testing occurred.  Here is how you can use LinkWare PC to make corrections.  There is no modification of Cable ID information possible in LinkWare Live.  In Versiv you may overwrite a cable ID, but to do so you must test and save the result to the same project, and confirm the overwrite.  Failing results and marginal results will have a "Fix Later" button available to act as a punch-list for your second round of testing, if needed.

For data integrity reasons it is not possible to change pass or fail criteria, measurement data, nor Date and Time of the results.

Import results from LinkWare Live or the tester and save the LinkWare PC project.

Editing Cable Information
In the Record Properties dialog box, you can edit or add information that describes cables and outlets, such as the Cable ID, Outlet Location, Outlet Type, and Outlet ID, and specify the cable record as a Horizontal Record or a Backbone Record.

For optical loss records from SimpliFiber and MultiFiber Pro testers, you can enter the Length for cables.

참고: You cannot edit test results in LinkWare PC. The message "Unable to find" or "Unable to find or modify this text" appears if you try to search for or replace results. 
 

To edit cable information for one record

Right-click on the record; then select Properties from the popup menu, or select Edit > Record Properties.

 

     

 

To edit cable information for multiple records

Select the records, right-click, then select Properties from the popup menu, or select Edit > Report Properties.

참고: When you enter length values for SimpliFiber or MultiFiber Pro records, do not enter the units (m or ft). If you do, the length shows as 0.0.  Length is not a measured parameter in SimpliFiber Pro or MultiFiber Pro results.
