1205CXB OPERATION MANUAL v2

Introduction
Description and Overview The 1205CXBTM is a High Resolution Cable Fault Locator, also known as a Cable Radar or a Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR). The 1205CXB transmits electrical pulses into a cable, and a portion of the pulse energy reflects back from cable imperfections. These can be discontinuities (eg cable joints, changes in cable type or the far end of the cable under test) or faults (typically short circuits, open circuits, water ingress or corroded connections).
The transmitted pulse and the reflected pulse(s) are shown on the display. The time taken by the pulse to travel to the imperfection and back is a measure of the distance to the fault. Position the cursor at the start of the reflected pulse to ensure that the distance to the discontinuity is shown accurately. You may assess the type of imperfection by analyzing the displayed waveform.
Reflections from an impedance higher than the characteristic impedance of the cable, and from inductive faults, are upwards. Reflections from an impedance lower than the characteristic impedance of the cable, as well as capacitive faults, are downwards.
NOTE: The 1205CXB has been specially designed to analyze coaxial cables but can be used on any cable that contains at least two conductors or one conductor and a metallic screen.

Velocity of Propagation (VOP) The properties of the cable, mainly the insulation between the two conductors, greatly affect the velocity of the pulses traveling along the cable. This velocity is known as the Velocity of Propagation (VOP), or Velocity Factor (PVF), while some cable datasheets refer to the Dielectric Constant. The 1205CXB uses this value to calculate distance, so it is important for this to be as accurate as possible.
The 1205CXB can accept user selectable values for the VOP of between 10.0 and 99.9%.

Cable analysis
The Basic operation section above provides a simple introduction to cable analysis and in many cases can deliver enough information for the user. Using the menus more extensively provides engineers and technicians with a very powerful analyzer capable of helping them find a wide variety of cable details such as taps, repeaters and water ingress.

Config menu details Pressing the button (Button 5) more than once scrolls the highlighter around the Config submenu allowing you to select a parameter or function, and to change it using the arrow buttons:

Pulse width

Vary the pulse width using the arrow buttons. The up and right arrows increase the pulse width, while the down and left arrows decrease it. A wider pulse has more energy, meaning it can travel further along a cable, but a narrow pulse can make it easier to see cable features at shorter distances

VOP

Also see Velocity of Propagation (VOP) above. Change the VOP, otherwise known as the

Dielectric, to match the cable under analysis for accurate distance measurement.

The left and right arrow buttons change the VOP by 1%. The up and down arrows change

the VOP by 0.1%.

Out Z

Match the output impedance of the 1205CXB to the cable for improved signal transfer

Thres

Threshold is the minimum voltage range over which the 1205CXB detects an event. This means that you can set the sensitivity of the unit for the size of fault at which it will place the cursor during an automatic search (see below)

Avg

Set an averaging filter to reduce noise on your signal

Func

your options are to view the following signals:

 the cable being analyzed (CABLE)  a saved waveform (LOAD)  the difference between CABLE and LOAD (C-L)  CABLE and LOAD at the same time (C&L)

NOTE: press the button (Button 13) to offset the two waveforms from each other

Search

Tell the 1205CXB to perform an automatic search

Cursor menu details Pressing the button (Button 6) more than once toggles between Cursor 1 and Cursor 2. Use the arrow buttons to move the selected cursor to the left or right.

Typical waveforms
You will encounter a variety of waveforms during testing because
 there is a huge number of different cable types  electrical and environmental conditions can change and affect TDR test results, and  you are likely to test cables with and without faults.
The following are examples of some waveforms that you may meet. Note that every circumstance is different so these are typical examples and may not match exactly what you see.

Open circuit

Short circuit

Far end of cable

Far end of cable

99.67m A reflection with the same polarity as the launch pulse indicates a fault with high impedance characteristics. The reflection shown at Cursor 2 is a complete open at 99.67m
Cable joint

330.42ft A negative or downward reflection indicates a fault with low impedance characteristics. The reflection shown at Cursor 2 is a dead short at 330.42ft
Wet splice or joint

Far end of cable

Wet splice

19.61m
This cable has a joint or splice 19.61m from the near end of the cable. The visibility of a splice will depend on the quality of the splice and the distance away from the 1205CXB

213.5ft This is a typical reflection from a wet splice or joint

18

Bridge tap

Bridge tap

1205CXB OPERATION MANUAL v2

Water ingress

Water ingress

503.3ft
A bridged tap will appear as a downward or negative reflection, because the impedance reduces at the point of the tap, sometimes followed by an upward reflection caused by the end of the tap.
Load coil

213.5ft
This cable system has water ingress starting at 213.5ft from the beginning of the cable. The waveform of the wet section will usually appear irregular and noisy

Load coil

147.3m
A telephone network load coil will cause an upward, high impedance reflection similar to an open circuit. TDRs are generally unable to "see" past a load coil

1205CXB OPERATION MANUAL v2
Return Loss
The 1205CXB provides you with a numerical measurement of the severity of a fault. This is called the Return Loss and it is measured in dB. Return Loss is a ratio of the amplitudes of the reflected pulse and the transmitted pulse. It is calculated as:
where: VO is the amplitude of the transmitted pulse, and VR is the amplitude of the reflected pulse
A severe fault causes a large reflection, making VR relatively high. The dBRL value will therefore be low. A minor fault produces a small reflection, making VR relatively low. The dBRL value in this case will therefore be high. In summary: NOTE: the larger the dBRL reading, the smaller the problem and vice versa.
To display the dBRL of a discontinuity, move the cursor to its reflection. Continue to move the cursor over the reflection until the dBRL reaches a minimum, which will usually be at its peak. NOTE: the position of the cursor for dBRL measurements is different from its position for measuring the
distance to the discontinuity.

1205CXB OPERATION MANUAL v2
Reflection Coefficient and VSWR Users sometimes use alternative measures to show the severity of a fault, including Reflection Coefficient and Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR). There are direct relations between dBRL and these as shown in the following table and graphs:
