2. IP Camera Tester Introduction
2.1 General
The 3.5 inch IPS touch screen IP camera monitor is designed for maintenance and installation of IP
cameras, analog cameras,TVI, CVI AHD cameras, as well as testing 4K H.264 /4k H.265 camera by
mainstream, The 480x320 resolution enables it to display network HD cameras and analog cameras in
high resolution. The unit supports many ONVIF PTZ and analog PTZ control. The combination of
touch screen and key buttons make the IP camera tester very user- friendly.
The tester is also a great tool for Ethernet network testing. It can test PoE power voltage, PING, and IP
address searching. You can use the blue cable tracer to locate individual connected cables from a bundle
of cables. Test LAN cable for proper connection termination. Other functions include providing testing
IP and analog at the same time, DC 12V 1A power output and much more. Its portability, user-friendly
design and many other functions make the IP tester an essential tool for all installers or technicians.

3. Operation
3.1 Installing the Battery
The tester has built-in lithium ion polymer rechargeable battery. The battery cable inside battery
cabin should be disconnected for safety during transportation!
Prior to the use of the instrument, the battery cables inside the battery cabin should be well
connected.
Pressing the key continuously can power on or off the tester.
Notice:Pls use the original adaptor and connected cable of the device!

charged. The charging time can be extended for about 1 hour and the charging time within 12
hours will not damage the battery.
Notice :Press the key several seconds to restore the default settings when the

Page.6.
instrument works abnormally.
Multi-meter: the red and black multi-meter pen must insert the corresponding port.
Warnings:Instrument communication port is not permitted access circuit voltage over 6V,
otherwise damage the tester.
3.2 Instrument connection
3.2.1 IP camera connection
Power an IP camera with an independent power supply, then connect the IP camera to the IPC tester’s
LAN port, if the link indicator of the tester’s LAN port is green and the data indicator flickers, it means
the IP camera and the IPC tester are communicating. If the two indicators don’t flicker, check if the IP
camera is powered on or the network cable is not functioning properly.
Note:1) If the IP camera requires PoE power, then connect the IP camera to the IP tester’sLAN port .
The tester will supply PoE Power for the IP camera. Click on the icon labeled POE to turn the PoE
Power off or on.
2) If use the tester’s menu to turn off the tester’s PoE power supply, the PoE switch and the power
sourcing equipment are allowed to connect to the tester’s PSE port, and the PoE power will be supplied
to the IP camera by the tester’s LAN port. On this condition, the tester cannot receive data from IP
camera, but the computer connected to the PoE switch can receive the data via the the tester.

Page.7.
Warning: Poe switch or PSE power sourcing equipment only can be connected to tester “PSE
IN” port, otherwise will damage the tester.
