Overview The VDV MapMaster™ 3.0 is designed to test and measure lengths of all common low voltage cabling found in today’s network, video or telephone systems. It also maps the locations of cable ends by sending a tone on the cable that can be traced with a tone tracer or by blinking the LED on the port jack. The VDV MapMaster™ 3.0 has a large, bright back- lit LCD display and glow-in-the-dark buttons to directly access each function. The remote stores inside the main unit for ease of cable testing. The VDV MapMaster™ 3.0 is turned on by pressing the power button and begins operating in the last mode used or the selected mode: twisted pair (DATA), coax (VIDEO), telephone (VOICE), tone generation (TONE) or Port Link-Blink (LINC).
