Introduction

The LAN tester makes it easy to identify the correct PIN assignment of 10Base-T, 10Base-2, RJ45/TM11 modular cables as well as 258A, TIA-568A/568B and token ring cables by comparing the outgoing cable end with the corresponding receiving cable end. With the remote tester, you can test cables that are installed at a different location, for instance in wall distributors or patch fields. Easy identification of cabling is guaranteed.
2.1 Specification

• Test the correct pin configuration of 10Base-T, 10Base-2 Ethernet cable, RJ45/RJ11 modular cables, 258A, TIA 568A/568B and Token Ring Cable etc.
• Easy to read cable status and verify cable continuity, open short and miswire.
• With remote kit, it can remotely test cable far away either on wall plate or patch panel.
• Test the grounding
• With auto or manual scan
• Operates with 9 Volt block batery (not included)

Operation

3.1 Loopback Test

• 10Base-T Cable Test

1. Plug one end of tested cable on sourcing of RJ45 jack (Marked with ‘.A.’) and another end of tested cable on remaining receiving RJ 45 jack.

2. Slide power switch on, the upper row LEDs will start to scan in sequence if the Auto/Manual switch is set on Auto mode, or the LED will light on pin 1 if the Auto/Manual switch is set on Manual mode.
   Note: You have to make sure the batery power is sufficient. If batery fails to the power, the LEDs will be dimmed or hold up or no  light, and the test result will be incorrect.

3. Choose the Auto/Manual switch to be Auto scan mode or Manual scan mode by pressing the Auto/Manual switch.

4. In this moment the corresponding LED indicators of another row of LED will light up simutaneousIy.

5. Read out the result of LED display. It tells you the pin configuration status of the tested cable. If you fail to read the result in the first run of LED scan, you may read it again in the the test switch one by one until you read the result out.

• Modular Cable test Please follow up the procedures of 10Base-T Cable Test. However, the LED display should be read as the right picture.
• 10Base-2 Cable Test
  1. Plug the two atached BNC adaptor cables on both RJ45 jacks, then connect the tested cable both ends on BNC adaptor cables.
  2. As to the remaining procedures, you may refer to 10Base-T cable test from step 1.2. to 1.5.

Note:

1. The center pin of BNC should be read on LED 1 and shielding pin of BNC should be read on LED 2.
2. As the 10Base-2 cable has only two wires, we suggest you to read the result of LED scan by manual mode.

3.2 Remote Test

1. Plug one end of tested cable on the sourcing RJ45 jack (Marked with ‘.A.’) of master unit and another end on the receiving RJ45 jack of remote unit.
   If the tested cable has already installed on the patch panel or wall plate, you may use the adaptor cable to solve the connector gender problem.

2. Now, set the Auto/manual switch on Auto mode if you work test alone.

3.  Read the test result from LED display on remote unit.
   Note: The LED display on remote unit was scanned in sequence corresponding to the sourcing end of master unit.

Test Result

Warning

• This tester is not intended for use on powered circuits. Ataching this tester to a powered circuit can result in damage to the tester or injury to the user.
• lf you will not use the tester for a long time, take off the batery from batery compartment.
