5. Орнотуу
5.1. Батареяны орнотуу
The TEMPO PA1574 requires one 9V battery. The battery compartment is located on the back of the Master Unit. Ensure the battery is installed with the correct polarity. A fresh battery is included with your purchase.
5.2. Connecting the Units
For testing patch cords, the Master Unit and Remote Unit can be connected directly to each other via a short patch cable or by inserting the cable ends into their respective ports. For installed wiring, the Master Unit remains at one end of the cable run, and the Remote Unit is placed at the other end.
6. Операция
6.1. Күйгүзүү жана өчүрүү
Locate the three-position slide switch on the Master Unit:
- КҮЙҮК: Powers on the unit and initiates a normal-speed scan.
- ЖАЯН: Powers on the unit and initiates a slower scan, useful for detailed observation of LED sequences.
- ӨЧҮК: Агрегатты өчүрөт.
6.2. Testing RJ45 Cables (CAT5E, CAT6)
- Ensure the cable to be tested is disconnected from all network devices and power sources.
- Insert one end of the RJ45 cable into the RJ45 port on the Master Unit.
- Insert the other end of the RJ45 cable into the RJ45 port on the Remote Unit.
- Slide the power switch on the Master Unit to either ON or ЖАЯН.
- Observe the LED sequence on both the Master and Remote Units.
6.3. Testing RJ11, RJ12, RJ14 Cables
- Ensure the cable is disconnected from all devices.
- Insert one end of the RJ11/RJ12/RJ14 cable into the corresponding port on the Master Unit.
- Insert the other end of the cable into the corresponding port on the Remote Unit.
- Slide the power switch on the Master Unit to ON or ЖАЯН.
- Observe the LED sequence. The tester will illuminate LEDs corresponding to the active pins for RJ11 (2-wire), RJ12 (4-wire), or RJ14 (6-wire) configurations.
7. Тесттин жыйынтыктарын чечмелөө
The PA1574 uses a sequence of LEDs (1-8 and G for Ground) on both the Master and Remote units to indicate the wiring status. A normal, correctly wired cable will show the LEDs illuminating in sequence (1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-G) on both units simultaneously.
Common Faults and LED Indications:
- Open Circuit (Broken Wire): If an LED on either the Master or Remote Unit does not light up in sequence, it indicates an open circuit (a broken wire) for that specific pin. For example, if LED 3 on both units fails to light, wire 3 is open.
- Кыска туташуу: If two or more LEDs light up simultaneously on either unit, it indicates a short circuit between those wires. For example, if LEDs 1 and 2 light up together, wires 1 and 2 are shorted.
- Cross-Connection (Split Pair/Reversed Pair): If the LED sequence on the Remote Unit does not match the sequence on the Master Unit, it indicates a cross-connection or reversed pair. For example, if Master LED 1 lights up, but Remote LED 2 lights up, there is a cross-connection between pins 1 and 2.
- Жарык жок: If no LEDs light up, check the battery, ensure the unit is powered on, and verify that the cable is properly seated in both ports.
8. Техникалык тейлөө
8.1. Тазалоо
Wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Keep the connector ports free of dust and debris.
8.2. Батареяны алмаштыруу
When the LEDs become dim or the unit fails to power on, replace the 9V battery. Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the Master Unit, remove the old battery, and insert a new 9V alkaline battery, observing correct polarity. Securely close the cover.
8.3. Сактоо
Store the cable tester in its nylon carrying case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove the battery if storing for extended periods (more than one month) to prevent potential battery leakage and damage to the unit.
