I know, and I specifically plan to try this out on standard 3 lead power cables, where you'd have green, blue and brown/red, but anyway...


Would also tell you which side of a standard I D E/harddrive lead had the red stripe along it as well.

hi,

won't help when one pair may be orange and the second one in that pair may be orange with a white stripe. sighted assistance may be the only answer with wires so small with similar colors.

Not necessarily going to help, but the vOICe can be set to only scan for certain/specific colours, and while haven't gotten around to trying it on wiring as of yet, that's one of my specific reckonings with regard to it - as in you could tell it to scan for only blue, and put the wires on something like a piece of white paper, and then just make sure that one at a time, you moved each one as far left as possible, but within the camera's focus area, and you should then be able to tell when a specific wire was then on the left, but, this would also depend on wire colours being different enough.

Not sure to be honest.  The color detector I have is good, but even that
doesn't detect colors of something that small.

Subject: making network cables

Hi all. We are making network cables in a class I am taking. To be
specific, they are straight through cables. Can anyone provide any info
on how I can do this particularly identifying what color each of the
wires are. Is there a factor that will identify it?
Thanks for any help.
