Figure 3-1 (right). Testing installed cables.
Remove the remote and connect it
to the far end of the cable.
To test patch cables: Attach the main unit and remote
directly to the cable ends, as shown in Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-2 (right). Testing patch cables: Slide the remote
to the side to expose the RJ-45 port and connect the cable
to the connector.
To test coax cables: Coax is displayed using the 4&5 LEDs.
The coax terminator is in the zippered nylon storage pouch.
4. Using the EZCT
Power ON and test:
STEP 1: Press the ON button to turn the
unit on. Press it again to begin a test.
STEP 2: When the PASS/FAIL LEDs
light, press the FAULT CHECK button

3. Connecting Cables to the Tester
Ethernet cables have 4 pairs of wires (“pairs“ or ”twisted pairs”). It is important
that the pairs correctly go to connector pins 1–2; 36; 45; and 7–8. The EZ
Check Cable Tester tests for the proper pairing; if there is an error it will report
it to you (split pairs”) via LED signals on the easy-to-understand faceplate.
To test installed cables: Connect the main unit to the wall jack and the remote
to the patch panel or far-end wall jack, as shown in Figure 3-1.
A tone is placed on the cable by the EZ Check
Cable Tester main unit. A separate probe locates
the tone at the far end of the cable.
Connect the cable: Plug the cable into the tester’s
main unit.
Power ON and tone: Press the ON button. Hold
the TONE button for 7 seconds to turn on the
tone. Press the TONE button repeatedly to select
the pair you wish to tone. Select the setting that
provides the loudest tone.
The tone is loudest when you select the entire cable (including the shield).
5. Tone Mode
Figure 4-7. The EZCT uses LED 4&5 to display the
status of a coax cable test. Connect the near end
of the cable to the BNC connector. Connect the
far end to the coax terminator (found in the
zippered nylon storage pouch). The illustration at
right indicates a good cable connection.
Figure 4-2. This indicates no failure on a
good cable. Everything is normal.
Figure 4-6. There are crossed wires on
both pairs 45 and 7–8.
Figure 4-5. There is a short on pair 36.
Figure 4-4. There is a split, or improper
connections, on pairs 1–2 and 36.
Figure 4-3. There is an opening,
or a broken cable, on pair 1–2.
Figure 5-1. Tone is used
to locate the far end of
the cable.
Identify breaks, shorts, splits,
and cross-circuits in UTP and
coax cables at a glance.
Chapter 6: Using the Probe
6.0 Using the Probe
The filtered probe detects the tone from the main EZCT unit.
Ultrabright LED shines from the tip of
the probe
Volume control is on the back of the
probe
Press to activate the probe’s circuitry
and light the ultrabright LED on the
tip
The “Tone” LED is a visual indication
that the tone is detected
“60HZ” LED warns that 60Hz (VAC)
is present and should be avoided
