Welcome to the Instruction Manual for the
965DSP-B. ‘DSP’ means ‘Digital Signal
Processor.’ Digital Signal Processing allows the
965DSP-B instrument to provide the fast and
flexible test functions needed for diagnostic
testing. ‘B’ means ‘Basic’. The ‘B’ version does
not have the TDR function found in the 965DSP.
This document will give you a brief overview of
the product, a description of the test functions,
and some technical hints on how to find common
problems on telecommunications cables.

Care and Maintenance
Battery Pack: The 965DSP-B uses a Nickel
Metal Hydride (NMH) battery pack. Typical life
of the battery pack is two years.
To change the battery pack: 1) loosen the six
screws on the battery compartment door and
remove the door, 2) remove the old pack , then
3) unplug the battery connector.
To install a new battery pack: 1) plug in the
battery connector, 2) place the pack in the
battery compartment, then 3) replace the door
and tighten the screws.
Charging:
The battery pack must be charged on a regular
basis. You can use the 965DSP-B for up to 12
hours typical usage (6 hours continuous usage).
The time between charges may be reduced if
you use the backlight frequently or if you work
in very cold weather.
Typical charging time is two hours.
Level of Charge:
The battery icon in the upper right of all screens
indicates the battery charge. Four black “bars”
indicate full charge. Zero black “bars” indicate
the battery pack is very low and should be
charged immediately.
AC/DC Adaptor:
Use the AC/DC adaptor to charge the NMH
battery pack. Plug the AC cord into the AC/DC
adaptor and into a power outlet. Plug the DC
cord into the 965DSP-B.
IR Port:
The IR Port on the top of the 965DSP-B is used
for uploading new software enhancements.
An IR to RS-232 adaptor cable is provided with
software enhancements.

Battery Holder:
The plastic battery holder that comes with the
965DSP-B uses six “AA” alkaline batteries
(alkaline batteries are not included).
Use alkaline batteries only when the NMH
battery pack is discharged and the AC/DC
adaptor is not available. Typical lifetime of the
alkaline battery pack is eight hours of normal
use (less if you use the backlight or work in very
cold weather).
The alkaline battery pack is installed the same
way as the NMH pack.
Test Leads:
The 965DSP-B comes with a Red/Black test
lead pair, a Blue/Yellow test lead pair, and a
separate Green test lead.
The Red/Black and Green test leads are used for
most measurements. The Yellow lead is used
with RFL. The shorting ‘strap’ that comes with
the 965DSP-B is used with RFL.
Keep the test leads clean and dry at all times to
insure best accuracy of the measurements. Use
soap and water to clean them if necessary.

You may order any of the following replacement
items from 3M. Contact 3M Telecom Systems
