I want to make a tester of sorts. It would be for identifying cable jacks in the house. Basically I will put a "transmitter" on the cable jack then at the meeting place in the basement or wherever I will connect a "receiver" on each cable, one at a time of course. The "receiver" will light a different led for each "transmitter". I will then be able to tell which cable goes to which room. I suspect I will be using some type of ic but I don't know much about them. I would like to have at least four "transmitters" in the set but maybe more. When I use the term "transmitter" I know that it won't actually be transmitting anything. I'm thinking of just having a resistor in the "transmitter" and having the "receiver" then determine which resistor is which and light the according led. Any help at all will be greatly appreciated. Yes I'm knew to circuit building but have a strong desire to make things myself. Thanks again everyone!
