INTRODUCTION
Les certificateurs LanTEK IV-S et les logiciels TREND AnyWARE de chez
TREND Networks sont des outils complémentaires. Ce guide vous donne
un aperçu des fonctionnalités principales des testeurs LanTEK IV-S et du
logiciel associé AnyWARE pour l’édition des tests et des rapports PDF.
DEMARRER
Avant de commencer à utiliser votre LanTEK IV-S, merci de suivre les étapes
ci-dessous afin de bien maitriser toutes ses fonctionnalités.
1. Chargez totalement les deux boîtiers de tests en utilisant les deux blocs
alimentation/chargeur fournis, qui vont ainsi remplir à 100% les batteries
intégrées. Ces dernières peuvent également être extraites en dévissant
la vis dédiée au dos de chaque appareil puis chargées directement avec
les mêmes blocs alimentation/chargeur, hors des testeurs donc, pour
des cycles de charge qui seront 50% plus rapides que si laissées dans les
appareils.
2. Choisir la langue française en cliquant sur la la roue des paramètres en
haut à droite de l’écran tactile.
