Caution:
1. The scan mode in the tranmistter and receiver must be same, If the modes are not
matched correctly,even the receiver touch the correct cable, it won't generate tone,
either. (How to match the mode accordingly, see the following part of “usage of receiver”)
2. Users must choose “PoE switch” mode if scan cables connected to PoE switch.
Press to turn on the receiver, the “power” indicator is lit on, which
means it works normally. “SET” button is for choosing scan modes or voltage
detecting.
a) Short press “SET” one time, the “ SCAN” indicator will turn red, in this
situation, it is available for two scan modes: Low frequency / PoE switch.
It means, when the “scan” indicator is red, users must choose “ Low frequency”
or “PoE switch” mode in the transmitter.
b) Short press “SET” two times, the “ SCAN” indicator will turn purple, in this
situation, it is only available for “High frequency “ mode. It means, when the
“scan” indicator is purple, users must choose “ High frequency” mode in the
transmitter.
c) Long press “SET” for 2-3 secs, the “NCV” indicator will turn red, in this
situation, the receiver can be used as a voltage detector.
Usage of Receiver
1. Tracing Telephone /Lan cable which is connected to switch or router.
Insert the cable into port “RJ11”/ “RJ45 Scan”, enter “SCAN” menu to choose
“Low frequency” mode . Then turn on the receiver, press “SET” button one time
until the “SCAN” indicator turn red, then go to the other side to trace the target
cable.
(Note: telephone cable into “RJ11” port, Lan cable into “RJ45 Scan” port)
2. Tracing Coax cable
Insert the cable into port “BNC”, enter “SCAN” menu to choose “Low
frequency” mode . Then turn on the receiver, press “SET” button one
time until the “SCAN” indicator turn red, then go to the other side to trace

Default gateway or Router or Subnet mask can be found by the same LAN
internet; Start – operate – impute CMD, Start the command line program ,
after that type “ ipconfig “ can query it.
Data packet: can be set based on needs.

Usage :
1. LAN communication device
Destination IP address was set to any one of computer in the same LAN , it
can test the LAN whether is normal between mainframes.
2. Network communication test
Destination IP address was set to any one of external network , such as
180.97.33.108, it can test the LAN whether is normal between mainframes.
Instructions of the test result:
The host tester will send four 32 bytes data packages to the garget device ;
The time means the host tester Communication back and forth between the
target device, that can judge the Communication if Stable and reliable.
When it shows 1ms, it means the Communication quality is great.
