I am an electronics newbie. I have been tasked with creating a cable tester to test a 2 wire cable for shorts or breakage. The meters that are normally connected to the cable read information very quickly (milliseconds) so I need to tell if there is a fault on the cable that could interupt the data for even a very small time period. I have purchased a latching relay that fires in 18 ms. I need some sort of device that can energize the coil on the relay when the resistance is either too high (indicative of break?) or too low (indicative of short). the relay will in turn switch from a green lamp to a red one. I have attached the iagram of the project as i envision it. Sorry I don't know much about diagrams, so it is probably not up to specs.
Any help would be appreciated...
