5.2 Aan-/afskakel

Press and hold the power button on the main unit to turn the device on or off. The LCD display will illuminate upon power-on.

6. Bedryfsinstruksies

6.1 Cable Tracing Function

This function helps locate a specific cable among many, useful for telephone systems, computer networks, and BNC cables.

1. Connect the cable to be traced to the appropriate port on the ET618 main unit (e.g., RJ45 for network cables).
2. Select the "Trace" mode on the main unit.
3. Use the receiver to scan the cables. The receiver will emit an audible tone or visual indication when it detects the signal from the target cable.
4. Adjust the sensitivity on the receiver for precise tracing.

6.2 Cable Length Test

Measure the length of various metal cables with at least two cores, including network cables, telephone lines, and BNC cables.

1. Ensure the cable is disconnected from any active network or power source.
2. Connect one end of the cable to the main unit's appropriate port.
3. Select the "Length" test mode. The device will display the measured cable length on the LCD.

6.3 POE Test

Test Power over Ethernet (PoE) network switches to check cable mapping polarity and voltage.

1. Connect the network cable from the PoE switch to the main unit's RJ45 port.
2. Select the "POE" test mode.
3. The LCD will display information regarding PoE voltage and cable mapping.

6.4 Multimeter Function (ET618 Only)

The ET618 includes a full-featured multimeter for various electrical measurements. Use the provided multimeter probes for these tests.

Figure 5: ET618 Multimeter Functions in Use

• DC Voltage Meting: Connect probes to the circuit, select DCV mode.
• AC Voltage Meting: Connect probes to the circuit, select ACV mode.
• DC stroommeting: Connect probes in series with the circuit, select DCA mode.
• AC stroommeting: Connect probes in series with the circuit, select ACA mode.
• Weerstandmeting: Connect probes across the component, select Ω mode.
• Kontinuïteitstoets: Connect probes across the circuit; a beep indicates continuity.
• Diode toets: Connect probes across the diode; the forward voltage druppel sal vertoon word.
• Temperatuurmeting: Connect the temperature probe to the device and place the sensor at the measurement point.

Always ensure the correct function is selected and probes are connected properly to avoid damage to the device or circuit.

6.5 Die gebruik van die flitslig

The ET618 main unit and receiver are equipped with flashlights. Press the dedicated flashlight button (if available) or refer to the device interface for activation in low-light conditions.

7. Onderhoud

7.1 Skoonmaak

Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure no liquids enter the device.
