Item 708, PinMap Software Screen Image

Use PinMap to link custom test fixtures, custom CB boards, specially-built connector panels, or pigtail adapters to the CableEye software. This software assigns test point numbers to connector types and applies standard pin designations to the pin numbers. For each custom connector, first choose a connector graphic from our large library to match your connector. Then touch CableEye’s probe to the connector pins one-by-one to automatically detect and assign a test point to each pin. A synthetic voice reads probed pins as you touch them (Windows XP and Vista) so you don’t need to take your eyes off the connector you’re probing. Finally, enter pin labels of your choice if you wish to override the standard designations. Create custom pin labels of up to seven alphanumeric characters, an especially valuable feature for labeling wiring harness connectors. When you finish probing all pins, you store a "map" file for the custom fixture. A menu within the CableEye application lets you easily select the desired map file. Cut and paste connector maps between different map files to mix maps from different CableEye CB boards with custom interfaces. Includes an electronic directory of all connector images available in our graphics library. Windows XP and Vista include synthetic voices of fair quality. You may wish to consider ordering a high-quality AT&T Voice Font; see Item 792. Site license; permits company-wide use with all CableEye systems. (Custom Interface Example)

Item 707, Connector Designer Software Screen Image

CableEye’s Connector Designer lets you create custom graphic images for unusual connectors not found in our library. This standalone application aims primarily at the many and varied kinds of circular connectors found in military and aerospace applications and permits you to choose a graphic size, position, and pin numbers, as necessary. The software will create a wire frame image as shown on the right, or will accept your photographic image of a connector in .png or .bmp form over which you may apply the pins, and pin numbering, if pin designations do not appear in the photo. Note that our standard software includes an automatic graphic tool for rectangular, D-shape, and matrix connectors, so for these types of images, you do not need the Connector Designer. However, if you need graphic images for circular or oddly shaped connectors, you should plan on ordering the Connector Designer with your system. Site license; permits company-wide use with all CableEye systems.

Item 709, Exporter Software Screen Image

CableEye stores your custom cable and harness data in its own internal format especially optimized for wire-list searching. Use our Exporter software to export and import cable data in standardized formats. Exported cable data may then easily be imported into commercial database, spreadsheet, or word processor software for custom report generation. You may also import wirelist text back into the internal CableEye format. Exported data may be organized in several forms: (a) a From-To list in which one connection appears on each line; (b) a Single-Column Pin List in which all connections to a wire appear on one line with connector and pin number individually specified for each connection (good format for large wire harnesses); (c) a Multi-Column Pin List in which all connections to a wire appear on a single line with pin numbers separated by tabs (or commas) and in order by connector (good format for cables or small wire harnesses).

At present, we support files with tab- and comma-separated fields, or in XML format. We plan to support other more specialized formats in the future. Contact us for further information or to request the addition of a new format. Site license; permits company-wide use with all CableEye Systems.

Item 728, AutoBuild Software Screen Image

CableEye’s AutoBuild™ software provides guided assembly with optional speech (Item 792) for cable and wire harness manufacturing. You may choose among several modes of operation, depending on the nature of your application. When the far end(s) of the cable or harness can be electrically connected to the tester (”2nd-sided pinning”), the technician touches an unterminated wire using either a probe (included with all testers), or a finger with wriststrap (Item 859), and the software reads the intended connection point using synthetic speech. The software also shows a connector graphic with the target pin highlighted. Once the connection is made, audible feedback confirms a proper connection or warns of an error.

When the far end of the cable or harness has not yet been assembled or cannot be electrically connected to the tester (”1st-sided pinning”), you may use one of several methods to assist in assembly: (a) blind assembly in which the software reads the next pin to be assembled and shows a graphic of the target pin, but cannot sense insertion (no mating connector necessary); (b) detected insertion assembly in which the wire being attached is clipped to a transducer which couples a signal into it – this signal can be sensed when you insert the pin into the correct cavity (requires a mating connector and transducer, call for details); and (c) light-guided assembly in which the mating connector is loaded with LED light fibers to illuminate the target cavity from the inside, thus eliminating the need for a computer screen (requires the Light Director™ board, Item 767). Note that the Light Director system has been shown through field testing to improve productivity by at least a factor of two over manual methods. Refer to our web site for more information on each of these guided assembly methods.

Synthetic speech increases throughput, and helps the technician avoid repetitive motion injury to the neck and shoulders by eliminating the need to look constantly between the workpiece and the videoscreen. A simple half-open headset permits the speech to be easily heard in a noisy environment without interfering with other workers.

When finished, a printed report shows construction time and operator performance. Assembly times and error data may be logged for future study. Programmable tones accompany the graphic screen to give clear signals to the operator when good connections are completed or when incorrect connections, resistance violations, or reversed diode insertions are detected. Order one AutoBuild option per workstation; this is not a site license.


Item 860, Custom Reporting Software Screen Image

The CableEye application includes standard reporting forms for printing a cable netlist with schematic, a differences list showing wiring errors, a batch report when logging test results, and a report for intermittent connection errors. Order the Custom Reporting Option if you wish to create fully-customized reports for special purposes. This option will permit you to add your company logo to each report, bar code fields, custom title blocks, and choose how and where cable data appears on the report. Requires some knowledge of database or Visual Basic™ form creation. Site license; permits company-wide use with all CableEye systems.


Item 861, Custom Labeling Software Screen Image

The CableEye application includes a variety of standard label forms you may use for printing cable, carton, or ID labels. Order the Custom Labeling Option if you wish to create fully-customized labels for special purposes. This option will permit you to add your company logo to each label, include bar code fields, custom title blocks, and choose how and where cable data appears on the report. Simplified setup does not require any prior experience with form creation or labeling programs. Will work with most common thermal and impact label printers. Site license; permits company-wide use with all CableEye systems.


Item 730, Applications Programming Interface Screen Image

The CableEye tester normally ships with a complete software application for production, incoming inspection, and R&D. We also offer an optional Application Programming Interface (API), a software library that enables control of the tester by an external program. Using the API, test engineers may now write software for CableEye in Visual Basic (VB6) or from any other software environment capable of hosting our ActiveX control. We also offer a native .NET library that you can use to control the tester from a program written in VB.NET, C#, or any other .NET-based language.

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 also write their own fully-custom user interface for the tester for special, simplified applications like a touch-screen display.

The API software includes the development environment for creating custom control screens and integration with external software. Runtime modules created with this software may be used without further license fees on any other CableEye testers within your organization. We also include the source code for several working examples that you may use as a reference or modify to suit your needs. This option requires some knowledge of programming.


Item 726, CableEye® for Windows® Software Upgrade Photo

All new CableEye systems ship with Windows software at no additional charge. This item is for customers with older equipment using our DOS application who wish to upgrade to Windows software. The software upgrade includes Windows software for PinMap and Exporter for those who are currently licensed users of these optional software products.


Item 729, Standalone Software License (no photo available)

The CableEye application software supplied with any tester you purchase requires that the tester be connected to your computer to function. Order this standalone license if you wish to install the software on additional computers and operate it without the CableEye test unit being connected. You may find this useful for database management, report printing, label printing, cable design, Macro editing, and log printing. This license also permits installation on a server for company-wide access. When you order this license, your installer CD will include an enabling key for standalone operation. Use this CD to install the software on additional computers, or on your server. (no photo or screen shot available)

Item 711, Minihook Test Cable (each)

Each cable connects to CableEye with a DB9 connector and terminates with 10 minihook test clips for testing connectorless cables, PC boards, and backplanes. Click the description link (above) for photo, application drawing, and screen shot of minihook graphics.


Item 714, Footswitch Control Photo

Connect this to the REMOTE socket on the M2U or M3U CableEye (Item 811U or 821U). It functions exactly like the TEST pushbutton and frees your hands during batch testing. It is made of rugged, heavy-gauge steel for long life in an industrial environment. Secure it to a fixed base or floorboard using mounting holes in the base, if desired. This low-profile design rises only 3/4" from the floor, and its 2.5 X 3.5" dimensions require little room on your work-area floor. Includes a 10-foot cord with a miniDIN8 connector. Will not work with the M2U-Basic tester (Item 810U).

Item 718, Probe Cable Photo

A probe cable like the one shown in the photo ships with every order for PinMap (Item 708) and AutoBuild (Item 728). This is a replacement item.


Item 701U, 701E, Power Module for M2 Photo
Item 703U, 703E, Power Module for M3

Provides 18v regulated output for M3U testers with Expansion Modules. Input 100-240vAC, 50-60Hz. Standard IEN 3-prong equipment socket accepts power cords from any country. Power cord not included.

Item 721B, 3.3 A Desktop Power Supply

Provides 18v regulated output for M3U testers with Expansion Modules. Input 100-240vAC, 50-60Hz. Standard IEN 3-prong equipment socket accepts power cords from any country. Power cord not included.


Item 725, CB Board Storage Rack Photo

Conveniently store CB connector boards that are not in use. Twenty slots will hold between ten and twenty boards; certain boards, such as CB4, require two positions because of the height of the connectors. This 7"x20" rack is made of rugged red plastic, weighs 2 lbs, and has carrying handles on the front and rear.

We also offer a carrying case with this rack built-in for off-site work. See Item 704B.


Item 850, 64-pin IDC Socket with Strain Relief Photo

Attach to 64-conductor flat cable (Item 852) to build an extension from the 64-pin headers on CableEye.


Item 851, 64-pin Vertical Boardmount Header with Ejection Latches Photo

Use this for custom PCB connector fixtures or mount in the "Custom" position of CB2 for testing 64-conductor flat cable. This connector is designed to be soldered to a printed circuit board! The pins are not long enough for wire-wrapping, but a compatible connector with wire wrap pins can be obtained from 3M.

Item 851R, 64-pin Right-Angle Boardmount Header with Ejection Latches Photo

This is a right-angle mounted version of Item 851 (above) and is identical to the headers used on the Attached Expansion Module, Item 823. This connector is designed to be soldered to a printed circuit board! The pins are not long enough for wire-wrapping, but a compatible connector with wire wrap pins can be obtained from 3M.

Item 852, 64-conductor IDC Flat Cable Photo

Use this flat cable with Items 850 and 853 IDC connectors (shown in the photo).

Item 853, 64-pin Vertical Surface-Mount IDC Header with Ejection Latches and Mounting Brackets Photo

Mount this on harness boards or other flat surfaces to link the mounted connectors on the board to a removable 64-conductor flat cable

Item 854, 64-Conductor Pre-Assembled and Tested Flat Cable with 64-Pin IDC Headers at Each End Photo

You specify the length when ordering. Connectors are attached to both ends so the cable may be tested before shipment. You may cut the cable in half for custom wiring.

Item 855, 64-pin Boardmount Socket Photo

These are the same interface sockets used on the underside of CAMI CB boards. Order this for your own custom interface board designs.

Item 856, CB Board Extension Cable Photo

If you need to test cables less than 5" long, remove one CB board from the fixture and electrically reconnect it using this 64-conductor extension cable. You may then position the free-floating CB board as close to the 2nd CB board as necessary to accommodate short test cables.

Item 857, Tilt Stand Photo

Mount these two sturdy aluminum brackets to the base of M2 and M3 testers to tilt the unit forward at a 30° angle. Rubber feet protect the table top, and holes in the bottom flange of these brackets permit them to be bolted to the work table if desired. May be used with expansion modules attached. Recommend for high-volume production stations or when using our Light Director™ connector assembly system (page 20). Will not work with M2-Basic testers (Item 810). Two brackets, screws, and installation instructions.

Item 858, Light Fibers Photo

Use these light fibers with our CB37 and CB38 Light Director boards.

Item 859, Wrist Strap Photo

Use this optional wrist strap in place of the probe to touch wires, pins, or electrical contacts of interest with your fingers, freeing the hand that would normally hold the probe. A one Megohm resistor isolates the body contact from CableEye but allows sufficient current to flow for detection. Use with CableEye’s Probe function, the AutoBuild guided assembly software (Item 728), and PinMap (Item 708).

Item 862, 80-pin Bare Breakaway Header Photo

Use in CB2 boards for custom configuration or any application that accepts 0.025” square posts on a 0.1” x 0.1” grid. Break off just the number of pins needed for your application.
