I'm trying to make a simple cable tester for 25 pin DSub cables. Can anyonr Please advise me on what i need and a diagram of how to configure the tester? Thank you

I expect you want some indication when/which conductor is open circuit.?
Will it be acceptable to stop and indicate as each 'fault' is discovered.? or do you want to record all the faults in the cable and indicate all failures at the end of the test [ which will be more difficult to realise].
Couple more questions,
how many cables are you testing.?
Will a continuity test at 5Vdc at 10mA be acceptable,? are you testing to a Standard or just a quick in house test.?
25 core straight cable, 5vdc at 10mA will be great. its only for in house testing, reason being we get loads of faulty cable after use and it has always been very difficult testing each core with a meter.........
