4.2 Uključivanje/isključivanje

Press and hold the power button on each unit to turn it on or off. The main unit features a color LCD display, while the receiver has LED indicators.

5. Uputstvo za upotrebu

The NF-8518 offers various testing modes accessible via the main unit's menu. Use the navigation buttons (Up, Down, Left, Right, OK) to select functions.

5.1 Cable Tracking (SCAN/TEST)

This function helps locate target cables within bundles. Connect the cable to be traced to the main unit's SCAN/CONT port. Select the 'TEST' or 'SCAN' function from the menu. Use the receiver to scan the cables; it will emit audible beeps and show visual signals when near the target cable. Adjust sensitivity for precise localization.

5.3 Port Flashing (FLASH)

To quickly identify a network port on a switch or router, connect the cable to the transmitter's 'Length/Flash' port. Select the 'Flash' function from the main menu. The indicator light on the corresponding port of the network device will blink, allowing for easy identification. This function supports 10M/100M/1000M speeds.
