5. સેટઅપ

5.1 બેટરી ઇન્સ્ટોલેશન

The LAN-1 tester is powered by one 9V battery, which is typically pre-installed. If replacement is needed:

  1. ખાતરી કરો કે ઉપકરણ બંધ છે.
  2. મુખ્ય યુનિટની પાછળ બેટરી કમ્પાર્ટમેન્ટ કવર શોધો.
  3. Remove the screw(s) securing the cover and carefully open it.
  4. Remove the old 9V battery and disconnect it from the terminals.
  5. Connect a new 9V battery, ensuring correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
  6. બેટરીને ડબ્બામાં મૂકો અને કવર બદલો, તેને સ્ક્રુ(ઓ) વડે સુરક્ષિત કરો.

The battery provides power for up to 20 hours of testing.

5.2 Connecting Cables for Testing

Before testing, ensure the cable is disconnected from any active network equipment.

  • For patch cables (short cables not installed in walls): Connect one end of the cable to the RJ45 or BNC port on the main unit and the other end to the corresponding port on the remote terminator.
  • For installed cables (e.g., wall plates, patch panels): Connect one end of the cable to the RJ45 or BNC port on the main unit. Connect the remote terminator to the other end of the installed cable (e.g., at the wall plate in another room).

6. ઓપરેટિંગ સૂચનાઓ

6.1 પાવરિંગ ચાલુ/બંધ

પીળો દબાવો પાવર button to turn the device on. Press it again to turn the device off.

૭.૧ ટેસ્ટ કરવો

Once the cable is connected, you can perform a test:

  1. દબાવો ટેસ્ટ button to initiate a cable test.
