3 Safety instructions

The PROlinetest may only be operated with the accessories originally provid-

ed. Using the device with accessories that are not original or for applications

for which it was not intended can lead to incorrect test results and may dam-

age the device.

The relevant safety regulations in VDE 0100, 0800 and 0805 must be ob-

served.

The use of cables other than those provided can damage the device.

The device should not be connected to high voltage sources such as

AC power circuits. Indu-Sol GmbH assumes no liability for damage re-

sulting from improper use.

Do not apply any external voltage to the device.

Never open the device. There are no parts in the device that need to

be serviced or calibrated. To change the battery, open the battery

compartment. See the instructions in Appendix A.

The tester is protected from splashing water and dust by the front cov-

ering by the cover film. It is not water-tight, however.

Never pull unnecessarily on the device’s cables. To hang it up, use the

eyelet in the device and the provided strap.

4 PROlinetest is indispensable for:

Testing and starting up 10/100/1000 Mbit LAN networks

Verifying new LAN installations

Troubleshooting of existing LAN installations

Cable mapping

Fault finding

Testing PoE performance

Measuring length, finding cables of all kinds, etc.

Measurement and display of: Manual

5 Measurement and display of:

5.1 Cable test

Incorrect wiring

Short circuit

Open circuit

Split pair

Length of cables and wires with TDR up to 150 m

External voltage

Example of error diagnosis

5.2 Power over Ethernet

PoE version A or B

Available power in Watts according to IEEE 802.3af

PROlinetest Measurement and display of:

Indu-Sol GmbH Page 9

5.3 General

16 different predefined wiring versions

Original predefined versions can be created

Cable types with predefined VP value

Original cable types can be created

Illuminated graphical display

Automatic shutoff time can be set

Display illumination time can be set

5.4 Power supply

4 x UM-3 / AA battery or 4 x rechargeable batteries of the same size

5.5 Battery life with a good quality battery

(such as a GP Super Alkaline or Varta Industrial)

Measurement always with the illuminated display

Powered on with no testing: approximately 40 hours

Cable test without remote: approximately 35 hours

Cable test with remote: approximately 18 hours

The available testing time can be extended by turning off the device or limiting

the display lighting time.

Note: Testing is continuous. Different durations may result with batteries

of different quality. Only use batteries from the same manufacturer with

the same capacity. Remove the batteries if the device will not be used for

a long time. If the battery compartment is damaged by leaking batteries,

it can be exchanged.

Using the PROlinetest Manual

6 Using the PROlinetest

6.1 Keypad

When the PROlinetest was developed, emphasis was placed on fast and easy

operation. For this reason, the PROlinetest has only seven keys despite its

many test options.

Function key 1 –ESC

Similar to a PC, the ESC key means undo the last step.

Function key 7 –ON/OFF

Key for turning the device ON and OFF. This key has a delay of approx. 1

second when turning off.

Function keys 3 - 6 –Arrow keys

The arrow keys are for menu scrolling: UP▲ / DOWN ▼ and LEFT ◄ /

RIGHT ►.

Function key 2 –SEL

The SELECT key. Press this button to select a function or start a test.

6.2 Test settings

6.2.1 Wiring

You can select from the list of different possible types of wiring (which pin to

which wire). This can even be changed during the cable test. It is important to

precisely specify the correct type of wiring because all information of wire pairs

and PIN assignment rely on it. Without it there is no OK status possible. The

proper identification of errors in the case of split pairs also requires a precise

definition.

16 popular versions are predefined.

The following abbreviations are used:

UTP= Unshielded Twisted Pair in a cable

STP = Shielded Twisted Pair in a cable

CR = Cross connected cable
