Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the LANtest Pro network cable tester series! The LANtest Pro is a small hand-held cable tester, which enables network professionals to quickly and easily verify the integrity of Ethernet twisted pair cables. In one step, the LANtest Pro will test twisted pair cables for open pairs, shorted pairs, reversed pairs, crossed pairs and split pairs. Just push the TEST button, and the LANtest Pro will automatically scan for any existing faults in your cable. The specially designed remote terminator is provided for one-person testing of installed cables. The tone generator function can be used to send a signal through your installed cables which can be traced with the Probe or any cable tracer in the market.

Dimensions: LANtest Pro: 125 x 52 x 30 mm (L x W x H) Low battery indicator

LANtest Pro Cable Test Operation:

1.Select "Cable" position on the toggle switch. 2.Plug one end of the subject cable into the RJ45 jack on

the master unit and the other end into the RJ45 jack on the remote terminator.

Note: The remote terminator can be slipped and locked into the master unit for convenient testing of patch cables.

3.Push the test button and check the results: First, check the 5 horizontally aligned green LED indicators (1-2, 3-6, 4-5, 7-8, SHIELD) for integrity status:

Solid light : pair is OKFlashing light : pair is faulty No light : open pair

a. Simultaneously, check the 5 vertically aligned LED indicators (SHORT, REVERSED, MISWIRE, SPLIT PAIRS) for the wiring faults.

b. For more detailed information about what faults are occurring in which pairs, hold the TEST button for 2 seconds to activate "Debug mode." The tester will test each pair one by one, pausing briefly on each pair, and display the corresponding fault status.

LANtest Pro Tone Generator Operation (only available on models 256652/LBT, 256652/TK, 256652/TFK and 256652/IDT): 1. Slide the toggle switch on the LANtest Pro to the "Tone"

position 2. Quickly press the TEST button once for continuous tone

mode, or hold down for two full seconds for warble tone

2 3

mode. To change modes, switch tester off and restart. 3. Using switch on side of Probe, select "speaker mode,"

"LED mode" or "speaker & LED mode." 4. Use the Probe or any cable tracer to trace the subject

wire. Reception of tone will be loudest (amplifier) or brightest (LED) on the subject wire.

LANtest Pro Remote ID Operation (available on model 256656/IDT)

1. Select "Cable" position on the toggle switch. 2. Plug one end of the subject cable into the RJ45 jack on

the master unit and the other end into the RJ45 jack on the remote terminator.

3. Press the TEST button. One of the ID LED's will flash three times. This indicates the number of the remote identification unit attached to the far end of the subject cable. The tester will then automatically continue with the same cable test procedure as the standard LANtest Pro.

Probe Features: Special inductive plastic tip which prevents accidental

shorts (possible with copper-tip tracers) when using near high voltage devices Traces and identifies wires or cable in a bundle or group without damaging cable insulation Adjustable volume level for various work environments

Both amplifier and LED for loud or dark work environments

Can work with any existing tone generator in the market

Probe Specifications:

Pen-style casing Special inductive plastic tip One push-button TRACE switch One battery low LED indicator One amplifier and one LED for signal detection One rotary volume level switch

Probe Operation:

1. With the toggle switch on the side of the Probe unit, select the mode of operation:

a. S & L: Speaker amplifier and LED tracing modeb. Sp. : Speaker only tracing modec. L : LED only tracing mode

2. Press and hold the TRACE button while approaching the subject cable. The intensity of the tone signal will increase as the Probe approaches the cable.

Battery Replacement

When the LOW BATTERY light illuminates, the battery does not have sufficient power to support an accurate test. At this time, you must replace it with a new battery.

Battery

Warning 1. Do not connect LANtest Pro to a live circuit as it may

damage the tester and interfere with a live network.2. Testing in a high frequency activated area may cause the

tester to give inaccurate readings.3. Do not drop or get the tester wet as it may cause internal

damage.4. Do not place the tester in areas of high humidity or direct

sunlight.5. Do not open the tester or attempt to repair in case of

malfunction. Please send it back to your distributor for repair or replacement.
